Apparatus and system for collecting and analyzing vapor condensate, in particular exhaled breath condensate, and methods for their use

摘要

The present invention relates to the fields of biochemical / chemical sensing, assays and applications. In particular, the present invention collects a small amount of vapor condensate sample (eg, exhaled breath condensate (EBC) from a subject having a volume of about 10 fL (femtoliter) per drop) and evaporation of the collected vapor condensate sample. Or significantly reducing the sample, analyzing the sample, analyzing the sample with a mobile phone, and performing such collection and analysis by a person without any specialized skills.
