Isoprene and acetone concentration profiles during exercise on an ergometer

TL;DR: Data appear to favor the hypothesis that short-term effects visible in breath isoprene levels are mainly caused by changes in pulmonary gas exchange patterns rather than fluctuations in endogenous synthesis, and hold great potential in capturing continuous dynamics of non-polar, low-soluble VOCs over a wide measurement range.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic profiles of volatile organic compounds in exhaled breath as determined by a coupled PTR-MS/GC-MS study.

TL;DR: These investigations aim at evaluating the impact of breathing patterns, cardiac output or blood pressure on the observed breath concentration and allow for the detection and identification of several VOCs revealing characteristic rest-to-work transitions in response to variations in ventilation or perfusion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Physiological modeling of isoprene dynamics in exhaled breath

TL;DR: A thorough modeling study of the end-tidal breath dynamics associated with isoprene, which serves as a paradigmatic example for the class of low-soluble, blood-borne VOCs, is devoted to aid further investigations regarding the exhalation, storage, transport and biotransformation processes associated with this important compound.
Journal ArticleDOI

Measurement of endogenous acetone and isoprene in exhaled breath during sleep

TL;DR: Breath acetone andIsoprene profiles exhibited pronounced concentration peaks, which were highly specific for leg movements as scored by tibial electromyography, and baseline isoprene concentrations decreased during the transition from the NREM to the REM phase of a complete sleep cycle.
