Abstract
While few methodological studies have been published on the salivary measurement of malondialdehyde (MDA), none have precisely detailed the analytical method. This work presents the development of an analytical method for MDA measurement in microvolumes of saliva samples from healthy individuals, using thiobarbituric acid derivatization and fluorescence reading of the formed compound. This method was progressively designed to meet specific constraints such as the limited sample volume available, cost-effectiveness of each assay, time required for analysis and costs. After studying the impact of various parameters, quantitative validation of this method was conducted using the accuracy profile. The study demonstrated that the fluorometric analysis method for salivary MDA accurately quantifies the concentration of this molecule within a validity range from 0.031 μM to 2.3 μM. Additionally, the accuracy profile allowed estimation of measurement uncertainty for each concentration level. It was determined that the calibration method using raw data was most appropriate as it introduced the least uncertainty in the obtained results.

Background
The perception of a metallic taste is a frequent occurrence in oncology, affecting 29 % of patients in a recent meta-analysis [1]. There are several possible explanations for the metallic taste, all of which may occur at the same time: lipoperoxidation, inhibition of the facial nerve on the glossopharyngeal nerve, presence of sweeteners, calcium and magnesium salts, anodal stimulation of the tongue, sectioning of the tympanic cord, direct stimulation of the tympanic cord, phantogueusia during pregnancy, burning mouth syndrome, metals in the mouth (iron, copper, zinc), etc. [2,3].. Among these potential causes, the peroxidation of lipid membranes of the oral cavity cells and salivary lipids, also called lipoperoxidation, could be a principal cause of the perception of this metallic flavor and discomfort in the mouth [[4], [5], [6]]. Lipoperoxidation refers to the oxidation of lipids in the presence of oxygen. It is one of the main biomarkers of oxidative stress [[7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12]]. It concerns lipids with at least two carbon-carbon double bonds [13,14]. Polyunsaturated lipids are the preferred targets of free radicals due to the high vulnerability of the methylene group (-CH2), positioned between the double bonds.
The most studied class of molecules resulting from lipid peroxidation are α,β-unsaturated aldehydes. The decomposition of hydropexoxides results in the formation of carbonyls including malondialdehyde (MDA), 4-HNE (4‑hydroxy-2-nonenal), and 4-hydroxyalkenal (4-HAE), MDA being the major and stable final compound of lipid peroxidation [7].
The aim of this report was to develop a reproducible MDA analysis methodology, adapted to salivary samples. This methodology will be used in a study currently being carried out aiming at investigating the association between the presence of a metallic flavor and the amount of salivary MDA in cancer patients. On the basis of a literature search, a protocol was developed. Tests were carried out to vary the assay conditions, adapting to the constraints of sample micro-volume, the time allocated to the assay for use in future analysis campaigns, and the cost of the method.
Description of protocol
This assay is generally part of a set of marker assays based on the same saliva sample collected from humans.
The direct calibration method has been chosen for the routine assay of salivary samples because of the low sample volume required, the latter usually being low-volume samples from clinical studies.
ABBREVIATIONS

4-HNE = 4‑hydroxy-2-nonenal
4-HAE = 4-hydroxyalkenal
TBA = Acide Thiobarbiturique
TBARS = Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Substances
BHT = 2,6-di‑tert‑butyl‑4-methylphenol
TMP = 1,1,3,3-Tetramethoxypropane
TCA = Trichloroacetic Acid
HCl = Chlorhydric Acid
NaOH = Sodium Hydroxyde
IQC = Internal Quality Control

PRINCIPLE OF THE PROCEDURE
The principle of the assay is based on the reaction between one molecule of MDA and two molecules of TBA in an acidic medium at high temperature, resulting in the formation of a fluorescent product (ex.532 nm/em.553 nm), as shown in Fig. 1, Fig. 2. To avoid artifactual MDA formation during the procedure, an antioxidant (BHT) is added to the reaction medium. Heating during incubation enables determination of total MDA, i.e. MDA present in free and bound form. Calibration of the measurement is performed using a range of MDA, a substance manufactured extemporaneously by acid hydrolysis of a solution of TMP.

PROCEDURAL NOTES
-
1.
A sample from a saliva pool (a mixture of saliva from several individuals), aliquoted and stored at −80 °C, is introduced into all the plates, enabling inter-plate repeatability to be checked. It constitutes the IQC.

Samples, IQC and blanks should be run together on the same plate using the same standard curve.
-
3.
Each sample is assayed in at least two replicates, and the concentration values obtained are averaged to determine the concentration of each sample. Each replicate is placed on a different plate. Example: if there are 3 plates, plate 1b is the replicate of plate 1, plate 2b the replicate of plate 2, etc.

6.
Assay quality control.
Expected performance in calculated concentration (eq MDA) of the standard range and the IQC (salivary pool) within the concentration range:
-
a.
Repeatability is defined as a measurement from the same assay same day and same reagents, intra and inter-plate
-
b.
Reproducibility is defined by a measurement from different assays conducted in different days with different reagent preparations
-
c.
The sample concentration value is valid if the fluorescence value is within the measuring range, i.e. for this assay: between the fluorescence value of the point at 0.006 and that at 0.09 nmol/well of MDA equivalent to a concentration from 0.02 µM to 2.3 µM MDA. Otherwise, if the value is not within the measuring range, dilute the sample 2 times if the value is above the upper limit and repeat the assay under the same conditions. If the value is below the lower limit, indicate 0.02 µM as the result.

Limitations
The chosen method for total MDA measurement is the method using TBA, with detection conducted through fluorescence. Upon addition of TBA in the presence of MDA, the addition of two TBA molecules onto the MDA is observed [6,15,16]. The mechanism of the reaction between TBA and MDA is provided in Fig. 4.
Fig. 4.
mechanism of the reaction between TBA and MDA.
The fluorescence of the formed complex can be measured at 553 nm (emission) and 532 nm (excitation) [17].
It is important to note that this method allows for the measurement of TBARS and not solely MDA. It is non-specific because TBA can react with other molecules [18]. Indeed, as discussed in the previous section, saliva contains numerous molecules that could interfere with the measurement of salivary MDA [19], such as other oxidation products like 4-HNE and HAE. Furthermore, the challenging experimental conditions (high acidity + high temperature) can lead to additional oxidation of available biological compounds in the sample, resulting in an overestimation of MDA quantification [19].
However, despite controversies regarding the specificity of TBA towards compounds other than MDA, it remains the most widely used method as an index of lipid peroxidation.
Moving forward, it is acknowledged that MDA is measured with the inherent imprecision it entails.
Several methods can be employed to control these artifacts:
-
-
Since saliva contains numerous molecules capable of reacting with TBA, it is necessary to precipitate the lipoprotein fractions to minimize the formation of interfering substances. The use of precipitating agents enables the assay to be specific to MDA [20].
-
-
Additionally, the use of BHT (an antioxidant) helps prevent additional formation of MDA during the assay [21].
The effect of storage over 18 months, a common timeframe in the context of research during clinical studies, has not been evaluated.
Conclusion
The iterative approach implemented for designing the most efficient protocol for the evaluation of MDA levels in saliva was successful regarding the different constraints, i.e. size of the salivary samples, costs, and time consumed and despite some limitations described above. It will be used for investigating MDA levels in a clinical study conducted on cancer patients. However, this protocol could be also used for other studies with same aims.
