Breath Biopsy^® Kits by Owlstone Medical

Human breath samples can contain up to 1000 volatile organic compounds (VOCs) originating from environmental sources and the body’s own metabolic processes. VOCs on breath are a rich source of biological information with relevance for early disease detection, drug development, precision medicine and treatment monitoring across a wide range of contexts. Breath Biopsy^® provides comprehensive solutions for the collection and analysis of compounds on breath.

Breath Biopsy Kits enable non-invasive breath collection with Breath Biopsy. Each Kit contains a Breath Biopsy Mask and Breath Biopsy Cartridge compatible with the ReCIVA^® Breath Sampler. Each Kit is single use and VOCs from breath are collected onto the Breath Biopsy Cartridge for subsequent storage and analysis.
