GC-MS is widely viewed as the gold standard for biomarker discovery and identification in breath research. Multiple articles have been published utilising LECO GC-TOFMS and GC×GC-TOFMS showing typically:
- 4-8 times more identifiable features
- Vastly improved chromatographic resolution of coeluting peaks
- Enhanced detection limits for target biomarkers and non-target screening simultaneously
- Significantly increased identification confidence with efficient deconvolution of high quality unskewed mass spectra
Vastly improved biomarker discovery
