| Abstract | Breath gas analysis offers fascinating new opportunities as it is completely noninvasive and provides a unique window to various biochemical processes in the organism. Requirements for clinical application of this innovative technique include on site and point of care applicability. As most analytical methods like sensors are often not fast enough to realize breath-to-breath sampling additional effort is necessary to provide breath samples of well defined and reproducible composition. For that purpose, we built an automatic CO2 controlled device from standard industrial components that enables adjustable breath sampling in any phase of expiration. Control of sampling was realized by fast responding infrared CO2 sensors. The electrical signal of these sensors was used to trigger a micro pump and a valve. In order to render the device as versatile as possible direct coupling with sensors as well as continuous or discrete sampling via a sample loop or traps was possible. CO2 concentrations, gas flow, and sample volumes were continuously recorded. Reliability and reproducibility of the device were evaluated and compared with an already established and validated manual sampling method. Alveolar concentrations of selected volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were determined in the corresponding samples taken in rest and during treadmill exercise. Substance concentrations of breath biomarkers in the automatically and manually collected alveolar samples were identical. Reliable sampling was possible with the automatic device up to respiratory rates of 40/min. Controlled and versatile alveolar sampling represents an indispensable requirement of application of most analytical methods and sensor technology in breath analysis. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
