The FANci2 is a highly sensitive analysis instrument for the determination of the ratio of the stable isotope 13C and 12C in the CO2 of respiratory gases.
The field of application for the device are all diagnosis techniques in which tracer substances marked with the 13C stable isotope are catabolized and finally expelled through respiration.
The 13C breath test analyzer can be equipped with a highly stable dual beam infrared spectrometer.
So this device is suitable both for medical routine diagnostics and for long term measurements with high demands for precision and stability and is the ideal device for laboratories as well as for scientific institutions.
