N₂O monitoring
in breath using NDIR sensor
NDIR (non-dispersive infrared) is a gas detection technology that measures the concentration of a specific gas, such as N2O, by detecting its absorption of infrared radiation. In N2O monitoring, exhaled air is directed towards the NDIR sensor, which emits infrared radiation at a specific wavelength. The N2O molecules present in the exhaled air absorb this radiation, and the sensor calculates the concentration on the basis of the absorbed infrared radiation. NDIR sensors are preferred for N2O monitoring because of their accuracy, reliability, ability to detect low concentrations, minimal maintenance and resistance to variations in temperature, pressure and humidity.

N₂O monitoring in breath after inhalation of a cartridge
When inhaled, N₂O rapidly diffuses across the alveolar membrane and enters the bloodstream. Because it is not significantly metabolized by the body, the gas is eliminated primarily via exhalation. As a result, the concentration of N₂O in the breath after inhalation reflects both the recent exposure and the ongoing clearance by the lungs.
Using high-resolution infrared spectroscopy, the OCIN₂O device is capable of detecting N₂O in exhaled breath with high sensitivity and precision — even at low ppm levels.
Real-world tests conducted in controlled settings demonstrate that:
N₂O can be detected in breath up to 300 minutes after inhalation
The breath curve shows a gradual decay, not an immediate disappearance
Inter-individual variability exists, but detection remains robust across subjects
👉 The graph below illustrates N₂O concentration in exhaled breath following inhalation of one cartridge. Data were recorded at regular intervals using the OCIN₂O analyser.
