Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| pH of saliva at baseline All subjects in all groups collects the unstimulated saliva in a sterile glass dish for the measurement of baseline pH of the saliva. The subject will give the saliva sample just before being exposed to the test mixed fruit juice by swishing 100ml of Amul Kool® Flavored Milk drink in mouth for 2 minutes and then drinking it The outcome accessor is blinded to origin of sample (from which group).Timepoint: 0 minutes | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| pH of Saliva 5 minutes after exposure to test flavored milk drink All subjects will be given 100 ml of test flavored milk drink, Amul Kool® Milk to drink. The subject will sip, swish and swallow the drink within 2 minutes. Five minutes after this, each subject will give unstimulated saliva in a sterile dish for measurement of saliva - 5minutes after exposure to test flavored milk drink. The outcome accessor is blinded to the origin of sample (from which group).Timepoint: 5 minutes;pH of Saliva 15 minutes after exposure to test flavored milk drink All subjects will be given 100 ml of test flavored milk drink, Amul Kool® Milk to drink. The subject will sip, swish and swallow the drink within 2 minutes. Fifteen minutes after this, each subject will give unstimulated saliva in a sterile dish for measurement of saliva - 15minutes after exposure to test flavored milk drink. The outcome accessor is blinded to the origin of sample (from which group).Timepoint: 15 minutes;pH of Saliva 30minutes after exposure to test flavored milk drink. All subjects from all six (5 test and 1 comparator) groups will perform assigned intervention at time 15minutes post exposure to test flavored milk drink, Amul Kool® Milk and shall give unstimulated saliva in a sterile dish for measurement of pH -30minutes after exposure to test flavored milk drink or in other words 15minutes after assigned intervention. The outcome accessor is blinded to origin of sample (from which group).Timepoint: 30 minutes;pH of Saliva 45minutes after exposure to test flavored milk drink. All subjects from all six (5 test and 1 comparator) groups will perform assigned intervention at time 15minutes post exposure to test flavored milk drink, Amul Kool® Milk and shall give unstimulated saliva in a sterile dish for measurement of pH -45minutes after exposure to test flavored milk drink or in other words 30minutes after assigned intervention. The outcome accessor is blinded to origin of sample (from which group).Tim | — |
