Spectrum Solutions SimplyPerio Saliva Test
Spectrum Solutions, a Salt Lake City-based saliva diagnostics company, has introduced SimplyPerio, which uses a proprietary molecular technology to test for and measure 16 periodontal bacteria, caries, fungal, and viral targets to guide treatment of periodontal disease. Patients can collect their own saliva sample, and the SimplyPerio patented blue buffer solution inside the collection device's cap stabilizes the samples at room temperature eliminating any special post-collection storage or shipping requirements. Tests are then sent to the company's CAP-accredited laboratory, which in turn delivers results to healthcare providers.
