Sweet interference: oral fermentation volatile confounders in exhaled breath revealed by minimal glucose exposure

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in human breath have been explored as non-invasive biomarkers for disease, including respiratory infections and cancer, yet very few breath tests have reached clinical validation and regulatory approval. A major barrier is the difficulty of ident...

Washout characteristics of sevoflurane and desflurane in surgical patients: a prospective observational study using gas chromatography - ion mobility spectrometry

Abstract Background Sevoflurane and desflurane are routinely used volatile anaesthetics in balanced general anaesthesia, but their elimination time from the human body may be underestimated. Methods Levels of sevoflurane and desflurane in end-tidal exhaled breath and ambient room...
