Journal ArticleDOI
A review of the volatiles from the healthy human body
B P J de Lacy Costello,Anton Amann,Anton Amann,Huda Al-Kateb,C. Flynn,Wojciech Filipiak,Wojciech Filipiak,T Khalid,D. Osborne,Norman M. Ratcliffe +9 more
TL;DR: A compendium of all the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emanating from the human body (the volatolome) is for the first time reported and it is the authors' intention that this database will not only be a useful database of VOCs listed in the literature, but will stimulate further study of V OCs from healthy individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Volatile organic compounds from feces and their potential for diagnosis of gastrointestinal disease
C.E. Garner,S. Smith,B P J de Lacy Costello,Paul D. White,R. Spencer,Chris Probert,Norman M. Ratcliffe +6 more
TL;DR: Findings in this work could lead the way to the development of a rapid diagnostic device based on VOC detection for gastrointestinal disease diagnosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
The importance of methane breath testing: a review
TL;DR: The combined measurement of hydrogen and methane should offer considerable improvement in the diagnosis of malabsorption syndromes and SIBO when compared with a single hydrogen breath test.
Journal ArticleDOI
Highly sensitive room temperature sensors based on the UV-LED activation of zinc oxide nanoparticles
TL;DR: In this article, the authors described the use of UV-light emitting diodes (LEDs) to enhance the room temperature gas sensitivity of zinc oxide sensors and found that the optimal sensitivity of the sensor was dependent on the applied light intensity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analyses of volatile organic compounds from potato tubers inoculated with Phytophthora infestans or Fusarium coeruleum
B P J de Lacy Costello,P. Evans,Richard J. Ewen,H. E. Gunson,P. R. H. Jones,Norman M. Ratcliffe,P. T. N. Spencer-Phillips +6 more
TL;DR: Analysis of VOCs collected from potato tubers inoculated with Phytophthora infestans, Fusarium coeruleum or sterilized distilled water provides key information for developing a sensor-based early warning system for the detection of postharvest diseases in stored potato Tubers.
