Repeatability of the measurement of exhaled volatile metabolites using selected ion flow tube mass spectrometry [PDF]
Selected ion flow tube mass spectrometry, SIFT-MS, has been used to determine the repeatability of the analysis of volatile metabolites within the breath of healthy volunteers, with emphasis on the influence of sampling methodology. Baseline instrument specific coefficients of variability for examined metabolites were as follows: acetone (1%), ammonia (

Breath acetone concentration decreases with blood glucose concentration in type I diabetes mellitus patients during hypoglycaemic clamps [PDF]
Conventional wisdom is that breath acetone may be markedly elevated in type 1 diabetes, but that this only occurs during poor blood glucose control and/or intercurrent illness.

Sniffing Out Urinary Tract Infection—Diagnosis Based on Volatile Organic Compounds and Smell Profile
Current available methods for the clinical diagnosis of urinary tract infection (UTI) rely on a urine dipstick test or culturing of pathogens. The dipstick test is rapid (available in 1–2 min), but has a low positive predictive value, while culturing is ...

The feeding tube of cyst nematodes:characterisation of protein exclusion [PDF]
Plant parasitic nematodes comprise several groups; the most economically damaging of these are the sedentary endoparasites. Sedentary endoparasitic nematodes are obligate biotrophs and modify host root tissue, using a suite of effector proteins, to ...

SIFT-MS for Livestock Emission Characterization: Application of Similarity Coefficients
SIFT-MS (selected ion flow tube mass spectrometry) is used to construct libraries for emissions from pig and broiler farming activities. Libraries are based on full mass scans in m/z range 15 to 250 using HO+, NO+ and O2 precursor ions.
