Figure 1. Typical sulfide detector output curves recorded during the input of constant concentrations (about 300 ppb) of H₂S, CH₃SH, or CH₃SCH₃. Superimposed on these curves is a typical response of the sulfide detector during the measurement of oral VSCs in a volunteer. Note the early peak VSC concentration is followed by a lower, relatively constant ("plateau") concentration.
