Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released by humans through their skin were
investigated in near real time using ion mobility spectrometry after gas chromatographic …

Abstract Analysis of exhaled volatile organic compounds (VOCs) holds promise for the
development of new and non-invasive procedures in many areas of clinical and home care …

Ion mobility spectrometry is a fast and sensitive analytical method for the detection of gas
phase analytes in the ppb v–ppt v range under ambient conditions (pressure and …

A feasibility study with ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) was started to find characteristic
peaks of volatile organic compounds in exhaled air of 10 mL sampling volume, which might …

Early diagnosis of lung cancer and airway infections is gaining increasing importance. We
have examined if volatile metabolites occurring in human exhaled air can be correlated …
