Figure 2

Drying kinetics of saliva samples deposited on different surfaces and exposed to different drying conditions, as determined by following the sample temperature versus the drying time. Saliva was dried fast under a stream of dry air, on filters (red circles) or on a plastic surface (green squares). In addition, filters with saliva were exposed to ordinary air drying (blue triangles). Pooled saliva was used from three different donors. Measurements were performed in triplicate using saliva aliquots, and mean values ± standard deviations are presented.
