MIAMI, March 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Fuisz Pharma today announced the filing of a patent application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office relating to the field of breath-based diagnostic systems.
Joseph Matus Fuisz Esq., commented, “The field of breath diagnostics holds enormous potential to extend the range of convenient and portable non-invasive diagnostic techniques. This patent application is directed towards addressing some of the challenges that have prevented commercial adoption of breath diagnostic systems, and specifically those challenges relating to addressing contaminants that can confuse results.”

In the future, it will be thought of as bedrock to the advancing use of the breath for diagnosis. Diagnostics are moving toward the breath and with our interest in diagnostics we, of course, shall be there.”
