Saliva Biomonitoring
Cotinine is the principal metabolite of nicotine. Therefore, it is a highly specific biomarker in the human body. Salivary cotinine provides a quantifiable method to measure the internal dose of cotinine and is a useful biomarker to measure short-term exposure to secondhand smoke. It is not as useful for long-term exposure. While saliva samples are relatively easy to collect, sample analysis requires access to a sophisticated analytical laboratory.
