VOCs

VOCs analyze volatile organic compounds emitted via breath, urine, faeces, and skin secretions to identify biomarkers for diagnosing pathological conditions.

Key Features:

• Non-Invasive Biomarker Detection: Detects VOCs present in breath and other biological samples at trace concentrations (typically in parts per billion by volume, ppb_v, or μg/L) for non-invasive biomarker analysis.
• Comprehensive Pathology Database: Includes a curated database of VOC biomarkers associated with 16 distinct pathologies for correlating VOC profiles with specific diseases.
• Advanced Analytical Techniques: Incorporates state-of-the-art analytical methods to enhance sensitivity and specificity for VOC detection and biomarker identification.
• Scientific and Medical Relevance: Based on recent scientific findings that recognize VOCs as metabolic indicators applicable to research and clinical diagnostics.

Scientific Applications:

• Disease Diagnosis: Identifies specific VOC profiles linked to pathological conditions to support diagnostic assessments.
• Metabolic Research: Enables study of metabolic processes and physiological states through analysis of exhaled and excreted VOCs.
• Clinical Trials and Studies: Provides VOC biomarker data to support clinical studies and evaluation of diagnostic or therapeutic interventions.
