CHEWING GUMS AND METHODS FOR EXTRACTING CHEMICALS FROM ORAL CAVITIES AND BREATH

A chewing gum has an absorbent material, such as polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), for absorbing or adsorbing volatile and non-volatile chemicals from an oral cavity or breath of a user. While the gum is being chewed, chemicals in the breaths and saliva of the user absorb or adsorb into the absorbent mat...

Zusammenfassung:A chewing gum has an absorbent material, such as polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), for absorbing or adsorbing volatile and non-volatile chemicals from an oral cavity or breath of a user. While the gum is being chewed, chemicals in the breaths and saliva of the user absorb or adsorb into the absorbent material. The absorbent material is then analyzed to determine the amount of chemicals absorbed or adsorbed into the absorbent material over time. Based on such analysis, various diseases or conditions can be detected or diagnosed. 口香糖具有吸收性材料,比如聚二甲基硅氧烷(PDMS),用于从使用者的口腔或呼吸吸收或吸附挥发性和非挥发性化学物质。在口香糖被咀嚼的同时,使用者的呼吸和唾液中的化学物质被吸收或吸附至吸收性材料中。接着分析吸收性材料,以确定随着时间的推移吸收或吸附至吸收性材料中的化学物质的量。基于这种分析,可检测或诊断各种疾病或病况。
