Abstract

Photoacoustic spectroscopy is a well-known spectroscopic method for gas detection. Exhaled breath contains volatile organic compounds (VOCs) as bio-markers of specific health condition. Detection and quantification of VOC bio-markers from exhaled breath can provide valuable information about the health status. We report the design and development of Photoacoustic spectroscopy setup and a preliminary study of the detection of certain standard VOCs.
