Resumen: | This study aimed to evaluate whether insulin could be measured in the saliva of pigs and if its concentration changes in some physiological conditions. For this purpose, a validation of an automated heterologous immunoassay for measuring insulin in the saliva of pigs was performed. In addition, the possible changes of salivary insulin concentration in sows after food intake and during gestation and lactation were studied. The evaluated immunoassay was able to detect insulin in the saliva of pigs in a precise and accurate way when species-specific calibrators were used. There was no correlation in insulin concentrations between serum and saliva. Insulin concentrations showed a significant increase in the saliva of sows after feeding. Sows at farrowing and lactation presented higher salivary insulin levels as compared with those in gestation. In conclusion, the results showed that insulin could be measured in the saliva of pigs, and changes in its concentration can be detected due to food intake and different physiological conditions. |
