Saliva Testing Instructions

  Please read before beginning:

1)   Begin test first thing in the morning before brushing teeth or eating breakfast.

2)   Fill a five (5) ounce cup with ice water from the refrigerator to the top of the cup.

3)   Take a sip from the cup of ice water and swish it in the mouth much like the dentist tells you to do with mouthwash and then swallow. Repeat this five to six times.

4)   Wait 2 minutes (time this from your clock) while thinking of something good to eat which should make you salivate.

5)   Take tube marked number (1) from the box and write the collection days date and last name on the tube and start salivating and (spitting) into the tube, tapping the tube on the counter top to cause the bubbles to create clear liquid below the bubbles.

6)   Stop spitting into the tube when the tube is half filled (50%) filled with clear liquid saliva. You will need to tap the tube periodically so the foam created will settle to liquid after each time you spit in the tube.

7)   When complete, place cap on tube and make sure it’s dated, put tube in box, then place the box with tube in freezer.

8)   As per the instruction sheet repeat this 11 times to fill all 11 tubes half full of clear liquid in their proper order: Starting with tube #1, then #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7, #8, #9, #10 and #11 over the 37 day period, on each day which I have indicated and each time place the tube in the box and place the box back into the freezer.

9)   Start test the morning after you receive it if I have advised you of this or, on the days which I create after you have completed your questionnaire with me.

10) The instruction sheet has blocks to write the days of the
       month for collection; I will have marked the day of the month
       for tube  #1 then #2 and so on, until  tube #11; this
       will insure that you take the sample on the exact day required.
