The Imspex Group’s proprietary gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS) technology was part of a ground-breaking cancer detection study that was recently carried out by a team of researchers from the University of Warwick, Coventry University and the University of Leicester. In this study, the FlavourSpec® headspace analysis device showed that volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in urine could feasibly be used to identify hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). These findings are

Imspex Diagnostics’ patent portfolio recently grew, with news that the European Patent Office has granted the patent “Method for measuring human exhaled air”. This is the platform that is used to screen for disease indications such as bacterial and viral respiratory tract infections, Group B Streptococcus infection, lung cancer and other chronic inflammatory respiratory conditions. We are pleased to be able to extend use of this technology from its roots in industrial and en

A rapid and non-invasive test that can identify whether COVID-19 is present or not can make all the difference in giving people peace of mind to attend appointments for existing medical conditions or to get going again with business, education and sporting activities. This is one of the driving factors for the work of Dr Renelle Myers and her @bccancerfdn team in their Vancouver-based breath analysis study where they are using the #BreathSpec® device. Breath analysis looks to hold much pr

Imspex Diagnostics’ proprietary GC-IMS analytical technology platform has built a legacy of being a versatile, accurate and robust analytical research tool in situations where compound combinations are complex and/ or concentrations are low. Much of this legacy has centred around volatile compounds in industrial and more recently environmental and food production settings.

The ultra-highly sensitive combination of gas chromatography (GC) and Ion Mobility Spectrometry (IMS) techn
