Determinants of variability of protein content, volume and pH of exhaled breath condensate

Summary Collection of exhaled breath condensate (EBC) is a simple and noninvasive method to obtain information on the respiratory system. Different mediators can be determined in EBC.

description Summary Collection of exhaled breath condensate (EBC) is a simple and noninvasive method to obtain information on the respiratory system. Different mediators can be determined in EBC. However, determinants of variability are not well described. The aim of this study was to evaluate variability of pH, volume and protein concentration of EBC between individuals and between sampling times. Therefore, EBC was collected from 20 healthy volunteers on two different days. Median pH for all samples, measured 5 min after collection without deaeration, was 6.17. Median volume was 1.70 ml and median total protein concentration was 1.02 μg/ml. Coefficients of variation were 5.17%, 21.84% and 37.93%, respectively. No intra- or interday variability could be found, except for the first collection time. Between individuals, significant differences were observed for all three mediators. Age, height and gender can explain part of this variation. In conclusion, no significant difference between sampling times on the same day or on different days was obtained for pH, volume and total protein concentration, provided that subjects are experienced in collecting EBC.
