Volatile Organic Compounds associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection [Presence] in Exhaled gas by Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry

VOCs (volatiles) SARS-CoV-2 ExG Ql GC-MS

Definition

  • This is a rapid breathalyzer test from InspectIR Systems LLC, for use at the point-of-care. It can detect five volatile organic compounds that are associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection. The VOCs are in the ketone and aldehyde families, but more detailed information is not available. Due to potential issues with cross reactivity, positive tests are resulted as "Presumptive positive" and must be confirmed with a highly sensitive FDA Authorized molecular assay.
