Abstract: A breath capture and analysis system includes a breath inlet for capturing a user's breath. The breath is drawn into the system and retained for analysis. The system includes a membrane that allows volatile organic compounds contained in the breath to pass therethrough. The volatile organic compounds pass into a vacuum chamber that includes a residual gas analyzer that is configured to analyze the volatile organic compounds. The analyzed breath is then vacated from the system.

Abstract: In an embodiment, the present disclosure pertains to a cavitation generation device that includes a dactyl plunger rotatable about an axis between an open position and a closed position and a propus socket having a channel. The propus socket is rigidly mounted below the dactyl plunger, and the dactyl plunger is received into the propus socket when the dactyl plunger is in the closed position. The cavitation generation device can also include a torsion spring that biases the dactyl plunger into contact with the propus socket. In another embodiment, the present disclosure pertains to a method of inducing a cavitation including biasing a dactyl plunger via a torsion spring, and rotating the dactyl plunger, by action of the torsion spring, into a propus socket. The propus socket includes a nozzle-shaped channel. The method further includes ejecting a socket cavity volume through the nozzle-shaped channel thereby inducing a cavitation event.
