“…In addition, metabolomics of adults' saliva has addressed intra-and inter-individual variability and the effects of gender and stimulation (Dame et al, 2015;Neyraud, Tremblay-Franco, Gregoire, Berdeaux, & Canlet, 2013;Silwood, Lynch, Claxson, & Grootveld, 2002;Takeda et al, 2009). Such studies have extended to children (Almeida et al, 2017;Oliveira et al, 2016), although the knowledge of children's salivary metabolome remains limited. A liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry study has assessed the impact of dentition stage, caries, and sibship (descendent from same parents, or siblings) on children salivary metabolome (Foxman et al, 2014).…”
