RS Labs® Oral Saliva Microplastics Test
Assess your patients' daily microplastic burden with non-invasive oral fluid screening. The RS Labs® Oral Saliva Microplastics Test provides clinical-grade quantification of micro- and nano-plastic particles recirculating in oral fluids. About 5 liters of saliva is produced daily from blood.*
Ideal for establishing baseline toxic exposure, evaluating environmental risks, and tracking clearance throughout clinical detox protocols.*

WHY ARE RESULTS SIMILAR TO SPOT BLOOD TESTING?
A healthy adult produces about 0.5 to 1.5 liters (roughly 1 to 2 pints or up to a quart and a half) of saliva each day.
Saliva is filtered and synthesized directly from blood plasma via the acinar and ductal cells of the salivary glands.
To generate this daily fluid, a massive amount of blood must flow through the relatively small salivary glands. The glands extract water, electrolytes, and specific proteins from the plasma, modifying the fluid (making it hypotonic to plasma) before it is secreted into the mouth.
