Sinueslab: Translational Medicine Breath Analysis | Pablo Sinues

Breath is an underexploited body fluid, which contains valuable biochemical information at the metabolic level. Our mission is to uncap the potential that breath analysis holds as a non-invasive method to assist in clinical decision making. We are a multidisciplinary team of scientists embedded at the University of Basel Children’s Hospital (UKBB) since June 2017. Being physically rooted within a clinical context provides us with the unique advantage of interacting with clinicians and having direct access to patients.

Secondary Electrospray Ionization-High Resolution Mass Spectrometry (SESI-HRMS) breath analysis platform at UKBB. This technique allows us to capture rich metabolic breath-prints of patients in a totally non-invasive and real-time fashion.
