As the exclusive North American distributor for G.A.S. Instruments, Ohio Lumex is proud to offer the BreathSpec Gas Chromatograph Ion Mobility Spectrometer (GC-IMS) for VOC trace detection in human breath.
The BreathSpec features dual physical separation of volatile compounds that, together with the sensitivity of the IMS, enables the detection and quantification of compounds in complex matrices down to low ppb levels. This allows for direct analysis of relevant volatile organic substances used as markers for illnesses or toxic chemicals inhaled by a human.
With a variety of sampling methods, you can ensure a non-invasive, hygienic standard for breath donors. A typical multi-compound scan using BreathSpec can take a little as 10 minutes.
