Differential ion mobility spectrometry (DMS) is a method to detect volatile organic compounds
(VOC) in the ppt range. This study assessed whether VOC analysis using DMS could …

During visuo-spatial cognitive tasks, patients with schizophrenia show a preference for local
(detailed) rather than global (holistic) information processing. The efficiency of such …

Purpose. Differential ion mobility spectrometry (DMS) is an analytical technique used to detect
volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in gaseous samples at very low concentration ranges …

Detection of special disease markers in exhaled breath is a method becoming more and
more relevant in medical diagnostic. The test environment plays a big role in the analysis of …

Introduction The Ion Mobility Spectrometry (IMS) is a highly sensitive analytical method for
detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in air. Available studies were typically done …

Introduction: Due to the increasing number of multi-resistant germs rapid bacterial tests are
needed. Bacteria release volatile markers (VOC) during growth, which can be detected by …

Introduction: First results of pilot studies in human medicine, regarding the analysis of
volatile organic breath compounds (VOC) for diagnostic purposes by means of spectrometric …

Introduction Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are increasingly studied as potential biomarkers
for various applications, such as diagnosis of diseases or detection of bacterial growth. …

Introduction: Volatile substances (VOC9s) in exhaled breath are target for identification of
new biomarkers for disease and metabolic processes. Renal insufficiency could be a good …

In daily clinical practice, it seems not suitable to get a blood sample for monitoring of metabolic
parameters a couple of times a day or manifold during one patients test. Nevertheless, …
