The present disclosure enables the synchronous operation of inhalation exposure and breath blotting of experimental animals.
For the purpose of promoting a better understanding of the objects, aspects and advantages of the present disclosure, reference is made to the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
Certain embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which some, but not all embodiments of the disclosure are shown. Indeed, various embodiments of the disclosure may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will satisfy applicable legal requirements.
Before describing a solution to the problem, it is helpful to define some specific vocabulary.
As used herein, "inhalation exposure" refers to a process in which a substance, which is an inhalation exposure pathway, naturally or artificially forms an aerosol and is infused into a living body through the respiratory tract during the natural respiration of the living body.
As used herein, the term "breath print" refers to the collection and detection of metabolites (e.g., volatile organic compounds) contained in exhaled breath sols, i.e., the sampling and detection process in the breath metabolome study. The research object of metabonomics is endogenous metabolites (intermediate or metabolic end products), the influence of internal and external factors such as gene expression, protein regulation and the like on the body state can be analyzed from the whole organism by analyzing the change rule of the metabolites in body fluid and tissues, and the change of any physiological, pathological or other factors in the body can influence the concentration of the metabolites or change the metabolic flux, so that the metabonomic technology can reflect the actual situation of the body more truly. The metabolome can be classified into blood, tissue, urine, breath metabolome, etc., depending on the sample source of the metabolite.
The breath metabolome has the characteristics of continuous, noninvasive and convenient sampling in a plurality of metabolome researches. Substances directly discharged from blood through a qi-blood barrier or respiratory tract metabolism are mixed with air to form aerosol, and the aerosol comprises endogenous volatile organic compounds, non-volatile organic compounds, inorganic gas and the like, wherein the endogenous volatile organic compounds are the substances which are most researched by an expiratory metabolome. Comparing the differences of sampling modes determined by sample sources in different metabolome studies, the expiratory metabolome study has the advantage of continuous sampling. Based on the semi-permeability of the qi-blood barrier of an organism, considerable gas-liquid exchange area in the respiratory process, water vapor evaporation and pneumatic atomization of the inner surface liquid film of the lower respiratory tract (bronchioles, respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts and the like), the expiratory metabolome not only reflects respiratory tract related tissue metabolism, but also can reflect secondary and systemic metabolism by presenting metabolites in blood.
