Developmental Validation of RSID™‐Saliva: A Lateral Flow Immunochromatographic Strip Test for the Forensic Detection of Saliva
17 Apr 2009
Abstract excerpt
Current methods for forensic identification of saliva generally assay for the enzymatic activity of alpha-amylase, an enzyme long associated with human saliva. Here, we describe the Rapid Stain IDentification (RSID-Saliva), a lateral flow immunochromatographic strip test that uses two antisalivary amylase monoclonal antibodies to detect the presence of salivary amylase, rather than the activity of the enzyme. We...
