Glucose permeation from blood to saliva appeared to follow the para cellular pathway in rat submandibular and sublingual glands, and the permeability was much higher in the sublingual than in the submandibular gland. The duct system re-absorbed glucose in the submandibular but not the sublingual gland. The glucose concentration in sublingual saliva was inversely related to the flow rate.
