Description

本発明は唾液の検査に最適なガムに関する。   The present invention relates to a gum that is optimal for examination of saliva.

歯科医療においては、唾液の検査を行い口腔内細菌の検出やう蝕リスクの程度を調べている。(例えば、特許文献1参照。)。被験者から唾液を採取する方法としては、例えば唾液吸引装置を用いる方法等が用いられている(例えば、特許文献2参照。)。   In dentistry, saliva is examined to detect oral bacteria and the degree of caries risk. (For example, refer to Patent Document 1). As a method for collecting saliva from a subject, for example, a method using a saliva suction device or the like is used (for example, see Patent Document 2).

しかしこの方法は、唾液吸引装置自体が大がかりであり導入コストが高いという問題があるため、被験者に数分間ガムを噛ませ分泌された唾液をロート等の採取容器に吐き出して採取する方法が行われている。   However, since this method has a problem that the saliva suction device itself is large and the introduction cost is high, there is a method in which the subject is chewed with gum for several minutes and the secreted saliva is discharged into a collection container such as a funnel and collected. ing.

この方法によれば唾液の分泌を促進させ比較的容易に唾液を採取することができる。しかし、従来のガムでは、例えばイムノクロマト法を用いた試験を行う際に、唾液の粘性が高いためにイムノクロマト試験片である多孔質膜を唾液がうまく通過せずに試験ができない場合があった。そのため、イムノクロマト試験の様な多孔質膜を通過させる唾液検査に適した粘性の低い唾液を採取することができる新たな唾液採取用ガムが求められていた。   According to this method, saliva can be collected relatively easily by promoting the secretion of saliva. However, in the case of a conventional gum, for example, when a test using an immunochromatography method is performed, the viscosity of saliva is high, so that the test may not be performed because saliva does not pass through the porous membrane as an immunochromatographic test piece. Therefore, there has been a demand for a new saliva-collecting gum that can collect saliva with low viscosity suitable for saliva testing that passes through a porous membrane such as an immunochromatographic test.

本発明に係る唾液採取用ガムは、イムノクロマト試験の様な多孔質膜を通過させる唾液検査に適した粘性の低い唾液を採取することができる唾液採取用ガムである。   The saliva-collecting gum according to the present invention is a saliva-collecting gum that can collect saliva with low viscosity suitable for a saliva test that passes through a porous membrane such as an immunochromatographic test.

以下、本発明に係る唾液採取用ガムについて詳細に説明する。   Hereinafter, the gum for saliva collection according to the present invention will be described in detail.

本発明の唾液採取用ガムは、ポリイソブチレン及びマイクロクリスタリンワックスをガムベースとする。ポリイソブチレン及びマイクロクリスタリンワックスは公知の物質を使用することができる。   The gum for saliva collection according to the present invention is based on polyisobutylene and microcrystalline wax. Known materials can be used as the polyisobutylene and the microcrystalline wax.

ポリイソブチレン及びマイクロクリスタリンワックスの配合量は唾液採取用ガム全体の80〜95質量%である。
また、ポリイソブチレン及びマイクロクリスタリンワックスは混合して使用され、質量比は2:1〜1:2であることが好ましい。
The blending amount of the polyisobutylene and the microcrystalline wax is 80 to 95% by mass of the whole saliva collection gum.
In addition, polyisobutylene and microcrystalline wax are used as a mixture, and the mass ratio is preferably 2: 1 to 1: 2.

本発明の唾液採取用ガムは、特定のグリセリン脂肪酸エステルを含む。具体的には、融点が65℃以上のグリセリン脂肪酸エステル:1〜10質量%,及び融点が60℃未満のグリセリン脂肪酸エステル:1〜10質量%である。これら特定のグリセリン脂肪酸エステルを配合することによって、粘性の低い刺激唾液を採取することができる。   The saliva collection gum of the present invention contains a specific glycerin fatty acid ester. Specifically, the glycerin fatty acid ester having a melting point of 65 ° C. or higher: 1 to 10% by mass, and the glycerin fatty acid ester having a melting point of less than 60 ° C .: 1 to 10% by mass. By blending these specific glycerin fatty acid esters, stimulated saliva with low viscosity can be collected.

融点が65℃以上のグリセリン脂肪酸エステルは、グリセリンモノステアレート(融点65〜70℃)),グリセリンモノベヘネート(75〜80℃),グリセリンモノ12−ヒドロキシステアレート(融点70〜78℃),グリセリンモノジベヘネート(69〜75℃)を例示することができる。これらの配合量は唾液採取用ガム全体の1〜10質量%であることが必要であり、1質量%未満または10質量%を超えて配合すると粘性の低い刺激唾液を採取することができない。   Glycerin fatty acid ester having a melting point of 65 ° C. or higher is glycerin monostearate (melting point 65 to 70 ° C.)), glycerin monobehenate (75 to 80 ° C.), glycerin mono 12-hydroxystearate (melting point 70 to 78 ° C.), Examples thereof include glycerin monodibehenate (69 to 75 ° C.). These blending amounts must be 1 to 10% by mass of the saliva collection gum as a whole, and if the blending amount is less than 1% by mass or more than 10% by mass, the stimulated saliva with low viscosity cannot be collected.

融点が60℃未満のグリセリン脂肪酸エステルは、グリセリンモノオレート(33〜37℃),グリセリンモノカプリレート(融点30〜33℃),グリセリンモノカプレート(融点45〜47℃),グリセリンモノラウレート(融点55〜57℃),グリセリンモノジステアレート(融点50〜60),グリセリンモノジオレート(22〜25℃)を例示することができる。これらの配合量は唾液採取用ガム全体の1〜10質量%であることが必要であり、1質量%未満または10質量%を超えて配合すると粘性の低い刺激唾液を採取することができない。   Glycerin fatty acid esters having a melting point of less than 60 ° C. are glycerol monooleate (33 to 37 ° C.), glycerol monocaprylate (melting point 30 to 33 ° C.), glycerol monocaprate (melting point 45 to 47 ° C.), glycerol monolaurate (melting point) 55-57 ° C.), glycerin monodistearate (melting point: 50-60), and glycerin monodiolate (22-25 ° C.). These blending amounts must be 1 to 10% by mass of the saliva collection gum as a whole, and if the blending amount is less than 1% by mass or more than 10% by mass, the stimulated saliva with low viscosity cannot be collected.

本発明の唾液採取用ガムは、エステルガムを含む。エステルガムは、唾液採取用ガム全体の1〜5質量%の範囲で配合される。   The saliva collection gum of the present invention includes an ester gum. Ester gum is mix | blended in the range of 1-5 mass% of the whole gum for saliva collection.
