Exhaled Breath Condensate Biomarker Database

Abstract

Researchers at the University of California, Davis have developed a novel mass spectrometry database cataloging >2,000 biomarker compounds in exhaled breath condensate (EBC) for breath metabolomics research.

Full Description

This unique database compiles critical data on biomarker compounds found in exhaled breath condensate (EBC), offering an invaluable resource for researchers and clinicians in the field of breath metabolomics. Developed by a dedicated team at UC Davis, this database fills a significant gap in analytical chemistry resources by providing a specialized library for the identification and analysis of biomarkers in EBC. With plans for updates every 3-5 years, the database promises to evolve alongside the field, incorporating new findings and advancements.
