  • System and method for selectively collecting exhaled air
    Publication number: 20060200037
    Abstract: A system and method for selectively collecting exhaled air. The system includes a sensor 118 that can be configured for detecting a flow of exhaled air 130 from a person. A control system 120 can be responsive to the sensor 118. The control system 120 can be configured for generating a gate signal when at least one characteristic of the flow of exhaled air 130 satisfies one or more predetermined flow criteria. A valve 122 responsive to the gate signal can be configured for selectively gating only a predetermined portion of the flow of exhaled air to an air sample chamber 110.
