Journal ArticleDOI
The human volatilome: volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in exhaled breath, skin emanations, urine, feces and saliva
Anton Amann,Anton Amann,Ben de Lacy Costello,Wolfram Miekisch,Jochen K. Schubert,Bogusław Buszewski,Joachim D. Pleil,Norman M. Ratcliffe,Terence H. Risby +8 more
TL;DR: In future studies, combined investigations of a particular compound with regard to human matrices such as breath, urine, saliva and cell culture investigations will lead to novel scientific progress in the field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Systemic Exposure to PAHs and Benzene in Firefighters Suppressing Controlled Structure Fires
Kenneth W. Fent,Judith Eisenberg,John Snawder,Deborah L. Sammons,Joachim D. Pleil,Matthew A. Stiegel,Charles Mueller,Gavin P. Horn,James Dalton +8 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that firefighters wearing full protective ensembles absorbed combustion products into their bodies through their skin, with the neck being the primary site of exposure and absorption due to the lower level of dermal protection afforded by hoods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of Exhaled Breath for Disease Detection
Anton Amann,Wolfram Miekisch,Jochen K. Schubert,Bogusław Buszewski,Tomasz Ligor,Tadeusz Jezierski,Joachim D. Pleil,Terence H. Risby +7 more
TL;DR: Researchers have developed new analytical techniques that permit real-time analysis of exhaled breath with breath-to-breath resolution in addition to the conventional central laboratory methods using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Personal exposure to JP-8 jet fuel vapors and exhaust at air force bases.
TL;DR: Breath samples from various groups of Air Force personnel were collected and found a demonstrable JP-8 exposure for all subjects, ranging from slight elevations as compared to a control cohort to > 100 [mutilpe] the control values, which suggests that further studies should be performed on specific issues to obtain pertinent exposure data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exhaled human breath measurement method for assessing exposure to halogenated volatile organic compounds
TL;DR: The "single breath canister" (SBC) technique is developed, a simple direct collection method for individual alveolar breath samples, and conventional gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analytical methods for trace-concentration VOC analysis are adapted.
