Background. Volatile acetone is a potential biomarker that is elevated in various disease states. Measuring acetone in exhaled breath is complicated by the fact that the molecule might be present as both monomers and dimers, but in inconsistent ratios. Ignoring the molecular form leads to incorrect measured concentrations. Our first goal was to evaluate the monomer-dimer ratio in ambient air, critically ill patients, and rats. Our second goal was to confirm the accuracy of the combined (monomer and dimer) analysis by comparison to a reference calibration system. Methods. Volatile acetone intensities from exhaled air of ten intubated, critically ill patients, and ten ventilated Sprague-Dawley rats were recorded using ion-mobility spectrometry. Acetone concentrations in ambient air in an intensive care unit and in a laboratory were determined over 24 hours. The calibration reference was pure acetone vaporized by a gas generator at concentrations from 5 to 45 ppbv (parts per billion by volume). Results. Acetone concentrations in ambient laboratory air were only slightly greater (5.6 ppbv; 95% CI 5.1–6.2) than in ambient air in an intensive care unit (5.1 ppbv; 95% CI 4.4–5.5; p < 0.001 ). Exhaled acetone concentrations were only slightly greater in rats (10.3 ppbv; 95% CI 9.7–10.9) than in critically ill patients (9.5 ppbv; 95% CI 7.9–11.1; p < 0.001 ). Vaporization yielded acetone monomers (1.3–5.3 mV) and dimers (1.4–621 mV). Acetone concentrations (ppbv) and corresponding acetone monomer and dimer intensities (mV) revealed a high coefficient of determination (R2 = 0.96). The calibration curve for acetone concentration (ppbv) and total acetone (monomers added to twice the dimers; mV) was described by the exponential growth 3-parameter model, with an R2 = 0.98. Conclusion. The ratio of acetone monomer and dimer is inconsistent and varies in ambient air from place-to-place and across individual humans and rats. Monomers and dimers must therefore be considered when quantifying acetone. Combining the two accurately assesses total volatile acetone.

Sensitive real-time detection of vapors produced by toxic industrial chemicals (TICs) represents a stringent priority nowadays. Carbon disulfide (CS2) is such a chemical, being widely used in manufacturing synthetic textile fibers and as a solvent. CS2 is simultaneously a very reactive, highly flammable, irritant, corrosive, and highly toxic compound, affecting the central nervous system, cardiovascular system, eyes, kidneys, liver, skin, and reproductive system. This study was directed towards quick detection and quantification of CS2 in air, using time-of-flight ion mobility spectrometry (IMS); photoionization detection (PID) was also used as confirmatory technique. Results obtained indicated that IMS can detect CS2 at trace levels in air. The ion mobility spectrometric response was in the negative ion mode and presented one product ion, at a reduced ion mobility (K0) of 2.25 cm2 V−1 s−1. Our study demonstrated that by using a portable, commercial IMS system (model Mini IMS, I.U.T. GmbH Berlin Germany) one can easily measure CS2 at concentrations of 0.1 ppmv (0.3 mg m−3) in the negative ion mode, which is below the lowest threshold value of 1 ppmv given for industrial hygiene. A limit of detection (LOD) of ca. 30 ppbv (0.1 mg m−3) was also estimated.
