Evaluation of Emotion-related Salivary Molecular Biomarkers
Sponsor: Sys2Diag
Summary
Recent studies show that emotional states can be discriminated by physiological responses. This physiological regulation results from the action of enzymes and hormones that represent the activity of the autonomic nervous system. The measurement of specific biomarkers, using non-invasive biological tests in saliva, would therefore provide physiological data on an individual's emotional state in response to stimuli, particularly olfactory stimuli.

Identication and measurement of a molecular biomarkers signature
Levels of the biomarkers of interest (DHEA, pg/mL; Oxytocin, pg/mL; Cortisol, pg/mL; Alpha Amylase, U/mL) will be measured in the saliva of participating subjects by enzymatic assay methods or ELISA-type methods performed using commercial kits.
