IONICON PTR-TOF instruments deployed for COVID-19 detection in breath
There is a high probability that this disease can be detected in the exhaled breath but also monitoring the impact of treatment or medication is highly relevant. Sampling exhaled breath is non-invasive and simple. But the analysis is the challenge: Several hundred volatile compounds have so far been identified in exhaled breath and their range of concentrations, typically in the ...
