Tedlar® Breath Collection Bags
Breath Collection Bags
- User begins by blowing/exhaling into the mouthpiece while opening the valve, by easily pushing the stem inward, toward the bag
- To close the valve, the user pushes the collection bag outward with their free hand, which causes the stem to pull outward, into its closed position
- Breath sample is collected and valve is locked into its closed position to eliminate any loss during transport
- To extract breath sample for testing, the lab can either:
- Insert syringe needle through base mounted septum
- Insert Luer connector end of syringe (available upon request) into open end of mouthpiece, creating airtight connection.
