ABSTRACT
The potential of using saliva as a
diagnostic fluid is well documented. The aim of this study was to
assess the quality and quantity of saliva DNA of alcoholic and non-alcoholic
participants using three saliva collection methods; DNA-SalTM
(Oasis Diagnostics, USA), Oragene-DNA (DNA Genotek
Inc, Ontario, Canada) and whole saliva collection method. Saliva
DNA
of non-alcoholic (n=30) and alcoholic participants (n=10) age between 25
and 35 years was assessed qualitatively and quantitatively using
spectrophotometry. Saliva DNA quantity was the highest for all participants when using
the DNA-Sal TM saliva collection kit (p<0.05).
The use of a mechanical scraper provided only in the DNA-Sal
TM
kit may have contributed to the highest DNA yield
for all participants. The quantity of saliva DNA when
assessed using spectrophotometer was found to be significantly lower
(p<0.05) for the alcoholic (16±3.57 ng/μL)
than non-alcoholic participants (19.92±6.18 ng/μL).
To determine the integrity of the DNA
samples, PCR
amplification of the Alcohol Dehydrogenase
gene, ADH1B was carried
out and the PCR was found to be successful. For all
participants, the DNA quality of the saliva collected using
the three saliva collection methods was found to be in the acceptable
range considered as pure DNA. The DNA quality
and quantity of saliva collected from the three saliva collection
methods were considered suitable for research purposes.

ABSTRAK
Potensi menggunakan air liur sebagai
alat diagnostik telah pun mendapat pendedahan yang meluas. Tujuan
kajian ini adalah untuk mengkaji kualiti dan kuantiti DNA menggunakan
sampel air liur yang diperoleh daripada peserta yang mengamalkan
minuman beralkohol. Sampel air liur diperoleh daripada semua peserta
menggunakan 3 kaedah pengumpulan air liur; DNA-SalTM (Oasis
Diagnostics, USA), Oragene-DNA (DNA Genotek
Inc, Ontario, Canada) dan pengumpulan air liur secara langsung daripada
kaviti mulut. Persampelan air liur melibatkan peserta yang tidak
mengamalkan minuman beralkohol (n=30) dan yang mengamalkan minuman beralkohol (n=10) serta
berumur antara 25 dan 35 tahun. Kualiti dan kuantiti DNA air
liur daripada semua peserta dikaji menggunakan spektrofotometer.
Kuantiti DNA
air liur bagi semua peserta adalah paling tinggi apabila
menggunakan kaedah pengumpulan air liur DNA-Sal TM (p<0.05).
Penggunaan alat mengikis yang dibekalkan hanya untuk kaedah pengumpulan
air liur DNA-Sal TM didapati berkemungkinan menyumbang
terhadap kuantiti DNA yang paling tinggi. Walau
bagaimanapun, pemeriksaan spektrofotometer mendapati bahawa kuantiti
DNA
air liur bagi peserta yang mengamalkan alkohol (16±3.57
ng/μL) adalah lebih rendah (p<0.05) berbanding
dengan peserta yang tidak mengamalkan alkohol (19.92±6.18
ng/μL). Untuk memastikan integriti DNA
air liur, DNA yang diperoleh daripada air liur digunakan untuk amplifikasi
PCR. Amplifikasi PCR didapati telah berjaya bagi
salah satu gen kumpulan Alkohol Dehidrogenase, ADH1B. Kualiti
DNA air liur yang dikumpul menggunakan ketiga-tiga kaedah
pengumpulan air liur bagi semua jenis peserta didapati berada dalam
lingkungan yang dianggap sebagai DNA tulen. Kualiti dan kuantiti DNA
bagi air liur yang dikumpul menggunakan ketiga-tiga
kaedah pengumpulan air liur adalah dianggap sesuai bagi kegunaan
penyelidikan.

kunci: Air liur; alkohol; kaedah pengumpulan air liur; PCR
