  • Publication number: 20240142403
    Abstract: Methods of assaying a breath sample from a subject for the presence of one or more toxins or toxin associated compounds are provided. In some embodiments, the one or more toxins or toxin associated compounds includes trichloroethylene (TCE) and/or one or more metabolites thereof. Embodiments of the methods further include providing a toxin exposure assessment that can be used to determine if the subject has been exposed to a toxin and to monitor changes in toxin exposure over time in the subject. In certain embodiments, a machine learning model may be used to determine if a subject has been exposed to one or more toxins.
