Comparison of exhaled breath condensate pH using two commercially available devices in healthy controls, asthma and COPD patients

BACKGROUND: Analysis of exhaled breath condensate (EBC) is a non-invasive method for studying the acidity (pH) of airway secretions in patients with inflammatory lung diseases. AIM: To assess the reproducibility of EBC pH for two commercially available devices (portable RTube and non-portable ECoScr...
