Abstract
The pH and buffer effect were significantly higher in parotid saliva stimulated immediately after meals than in that produced by the same stimulus between the meals. A tendency toward an increased amount of saliva was found at meals, but with regard to amylolytic activity no clear-cut change was observed.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
