HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host (unlike many bacteria or fungi, which may do so under suitable conditions), except under laboratory conditions; therefore, it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host.

Does blood if exposed in the air will lose infection.
Even if only for 1seconds entering the human body
Also not infected with HIV

Is that so

Not an HIV concern. Saliva isn't infectious.
