ISLAS - Intra-cavity laser spectroscopy for the highly sensitive detection of trace gases

Respiratory gas analysis is currently an important subject of medical research, which has been growing rapidly in recent years. Respiratory gas tests allow the non-invasive detection of gaseous biomarkers for various diseases, such as diabetes, metabolic diseases and some types of cancer.

ISLAS is developing a laser-based measurement method that features innovative photothermal signal detection. This makes it possible for the first time to detect a large number of biomarkers with extremely high sensitivity and short measurement times.
