Abstract: Saliva contains many biomarkers, which are closely related to the occurrence, development, diagnosis, and treatment of oral and systemic diseases. The detection of biomarkers plays an important role in the early screening and diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Because of its close connection with the nervous system, saliva is expected to become a library of AD-related biomarkers. This article introduces and evaluates the biomarkers in saliva that can be used for early detection of AD and the biosensors that can be used to detect these markers, in order to provide new ideas for the development of reliable AD saliva biomarkers and non-invasive biosensors.

Key words: Alzheimer's disease, biosensors, biomarkers, saliva
