Testosterone has been detected in whole human saliva. Levels averaged (+/- SE) 295 +/- 36 and 195 +/- 25 pg/ml in adult males and females, respectively, and usually were undetectable in children. In adult males, the excretion of testosterone in saliva appeared to follow a circadian rhythm.
已在全人类唾液中检测到睾酮。成年男性和女性唾液中睾酮水平的平均值(±标准误)分别为295±36和195±25 pg/ml,儿童唾液中通常检测不到睾酮。在成年男性中,唾液中睾酮的排泄似乎遵循昼夜节律。
