VOC markers in Human Breath

Various volatile compounds can be present in human breath depending on nutrition, metabolic state including diseases and medication, microbial infections and personal oral hygiene. Once authoritative validated their presence and concentration represent valueable information sources for early diagnosis or therapy control.

Several applications have been examined with scientific same as customer feasibility studies proving the power of this innovative non-invasive approach:

- monitoring endogeneous VOCs (e.g. aldehydes,
  ketones, alcohols, isoprene)

- research on potential marker compounds for  
  diseases / infections

- measurement of drugs and their metabolites

- drug efficiency in pharmacokinetics
