Ionicon PTR-TOF instruments deployed for COVID-19 detection in breath
SARS-CoV-2 currently has the world in its grasp. A quick, non-invasive test to identify an infection would be a tremendous step forward. There is a high probability that this disease can be detected in the exhaled breath but also monitoring the impact of treatment or medication in exhaled breath is highly relevant. IONICON PTR-TOF systems have become the de-facto standard for real-time breath ...

PTR-MS breath test shows potential for detecting liver disease
Researchers at the University of Birmingham have published results that suggest a non-invasive breath test for liver disease using an IONICON PTR-MS. Elevated levels of limonene in patients have been found to be indicative of a diseased liver. Especially in the UK liver disease has risen sharply over the past few decades and is the third biggest cause of premature mortality. Patients do not ...

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 ...
