NEW BREATH TEST STUDY - VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
Just as I was preparing to write to Mebo to suggest it (see my thread from Monday), I see they just announced that they will be co-ordinating a study of alveolar breath samples in malodor sufferers. They will be collecting samples in Chicago, Miami, and presumably New Jersey (since Menssana is based there), but also in London or anywhere international that there is enough demand including other US cities of course (I believe we have several active members in Atlanta?).
The cost is $275 which may seem expensive, but it may be your only chance to really be involved in something that will advance scientific understanding of your condition. And it's not much when you consider that some of us have paid thousands for tonsillectomies and other surgery.
All those interested please reply to this thread and state your nearest city.
I will be writing to Mike at Mebo with a link to this thread.
Thankyou Mebo!
Re: NEW BREATH TEST STUDY - VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
Potty , are you the microbiology tech ?cant recall who said they work in that field . Anyway , i just corresponded with menssaana ,telling them about this sites and mebos members being interested. I think i somehow gave the idea that we were all about oral origin BB because he responded (Michael) with thispotty_mouth wrote: I will be writing to Mike at Mebo with a link to this thread.[/b]
Thankyou Mebo!
" we have no ongoing research studies in oral malodor, but that the test may soon be available to users if there is sufficient interest. "
i replied that the vast majority likely aren't oral. My Reply:
" I neglected to say that many members suffer from chronic halitosis and/or body odor that is yet undiagnosed and not oral in origin but emanating possible from organs, lung,sinus ,etc ."
Maybe yourself or someone could fashion a letter describing our plight better than i can . I think menssana are really onto something right up our bb alley .

thanks for your responses... I am currently in email contact with Mebo directly and they are aware of this site. The more responses here the better!
I think for now I will not be contacting Dr Phillips directly, I will leave that to them.
Deebo, I am a tech on the analytical instrumentation not in microbiology (my background is biochemistry) but I do know that this kind of analysis is pretty much the best you can get - the gold standard.
Dr Phillips does all kinds of breath research, not just malodor. So it may be Mebo who are conducting this research themselves, so better just to wait for their response. I have asked them about how they plan to differentiate between oral and alveolar breath, and asked a few other questions on the design of the study and the instrumentation used.
Will keep you all posted!

Mebo will be beginning their testing in Chicago in November. Please contact Mebo directly if you would like to participate or if you want to know more:
[email protected]
deebo, yes Mebo is renting out the machine and they are based in Chicago... are you anywhere near?
but they are willing to ship the breath collection unit to other cities if there is demand.
Mike has advised me that anyone interested should contact them directly. Even if you have already replied to this thread please contact Mebo on the email address above.

i saw that Dr Davidi was doing some interesting research on another post, but didn't realise he already had a product out. I would be veryinterested to try it. Can you let me know how to get hold of it? I'm in Australia but I'm hoping they ship internationally. I don't speak Hebrew so i can't understand their website!
Would love to try it though. thanks for posting!

i gotta say this is quite a weird solution.why invent such uncomfortable device like-medicines instead figuring out the real underlying causes ? what was that joyful tunes playing at the background . do they really expect people'll continue their lives happily with this tablets ? whats next ? a mini aspirator that sucks the air in the mouth and release it from a more acceptable place ? sorry but watching this video felt like i am a heavily handicaped person.joe1 wrote:I wrote to Dr Michael Perez Davidi and he wrote me back saying that there is a treatment for halitosis already called smell x. I think ill give it a try. here is the video
