Several hundred volatile organic compounds (VOCs) havebeen identified from the human breath. Concentration changes of exhaledVOC profiles may mirror a broad range processes related to different,partially contrasting effects, such as origin, (previous) exposure,normal metabolism and physiology, well topathophysiology, inflammation or infection. Due highly“volatile” nature all those VOC change immediatelyand pronouncedly. Detailed knowledge on substance potentialmetabolic pathways potential in vivo as(re)distribution body, exhalation kinetics are mandatory toassess exhaled VOCs biomarkers. This chapter summarizesrecent findings field gives detailed critical lookat described origins effects breath emissions.A clinical interpretation requires concreteand systemic understanding origins, influencing factorsand their actual effect current profiles. If thisknowledge is available with robust methods sampling analysisbeing applied, be used not only for disease detectionand monitoring but deeper insights into different body processes,such exposure, nutrition, medication, compartmental distributionsand basic physiology metabolism.

Plants, animals and humans metabolically produce volatile isoprene (C5H8). Humans continuously exhale exhaled concentrations differ under various physio-metabolic pathophysiological conditions. Yet unknown metabolic origin hinders to reach clinical practice as a biomarker. Screening 2000 individuals from consecutive mass-spectrometric studies, we herein identify five healthy German adults without isoprene. Whole exome sequencing in these reveals only one shared homozygous (European prevalence: <1%) IDI2 stop-gain mutation, which causes losses of enzyme active site Mg2+-cofactor binding sites. Consequently, the conversion isopentenyl diphosphate dimethylallyl (DMAPP) part cholesterol metabolism is prevented adults. Targeted depicts that rs1044261 variant (p.Trp144Stop) heterozygous deficient blood-relatives absent unrelated normal Wild-type IDI1 related serological parameters are all determines production DMAPP sources unlike plants, lack synthase its homologue. Human expressed skeletal-myocellular peroxisomes instant spikes exhalation during muscle activity underpins muscular lipolytic metabolism. Our findings translate clinically interpretable breath biomarker towards potential applications human medicine.

Abstract The use of face masks became mandatory during SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. Wearing may lead to complaints about laboured breathing and stress. influence different on cardiopulmonary performance was investigated in a partially double-blinded randomized cross-over design. Forty subjects (19–65 years) underwent body plethysmography, ergometry, exercise test 4-h wearing period without mask, with surgical mask (SM), community (CM), an FFP2 respirator (FFP2). Cardiopulmonary, physical, capnometric, blood gas related parameters were recorded. Breathing resistance work significantly increased while mask. During the increase minute ventilation tended be lower time longer than caused significant minimal decreases oxygen pressure, saturation, initial inspiratory carbon dioxide higher perceived physical exertion temperature humidity behind under very heavy exercise. All effects stronger when FFP2. at rest exercise, changed patterns sense physiological compensation representing health risk. for light had no effect gases.

Breath volatile organics (VOCs) may provide immediate information on infection mechanisms and host response. We conducted real-time mass spectrometry-based breath profiling in 708 non-preselected consecutive subjects the screening scenario of a COVID-19 test center. Recruited were grouped based PCR-confirmed status presence or absence flu-like symptoms. Exhaled VOC profiles SARS-CoV-2-positive cases (n = 36) differed from healthy 256) those with other respiratory infections 416).

Breath analysis was coupled with ergo-spirometry for non-invasive profiling of physio-metabolic status under exhaustive exercise. Real-time mass-spectrometry based continuous exhaled metabolites along breath-resolved spirometry and heart rate monitoring were executed while 14 healthy adults performed ergometric ramp exercise protocol until exhaustion. Arterial blood lactate level analyzed at defined time points. Respiratory-cardiac parameters exhalation several blood-borne volatiles changed continuously the course increasing workloads. Exhaled mirrored ventilatory and/or hemodynamic effects depended on origin physicochemical properties substances. At maximum workload, endogenous isoprene, methanethiol, dimethylsulfide, acetaldehyde, butanal, butyric acid acetone concentrations decreased significantly by 74, 25, 35, 46, 21, 2 2%, respectively. Observed trends in exogenous cyclohexadiene acetonitrile mimicked isoprene profile due to their similar solubility volatility. Assignment anaerobic threshold possible via breath acetone.
