Halimeter^® products have been the standard and most trusted instruments used in the analysis of treatment of chronic halitosis for more than 20 years. Just released, the Halimeter^® PLUS is a complete reimagining of this widely used tool, featuring the latest electronics, and a host of practical functions for the clinician and researcher alike.

First introduced in 1997 as a basic gas analyzer for detection of the so-called "volatile sulfur compounds" [VSC]—primarily hydrogen sulfide, methyl mercaptan, and dimethyl sulfide—which cause bad breath, the Halimeter^® has undergone a number of design changes over the years. The company believes that the new PLUS version is the best one yet.

Provided with a large graphics display and easy-to-use controls, the PLUS gives the user a real time display of the VSC. An integral SD memory card stores the readings for each test, and these can be exported to Excel for further study. Small, lightweight, and equipped with lithium-ion batteries, the PLUS can be taken anywhere, making it ideal for health fairs and in-store demonstrations, as well as convenient operation in the dental office.

The company provides plenty of suggestions on how to use the product, and maintains an extensive Experts' Forum, with published technical papers describing the research and results obtained with Halimeter^® products.

Customer service representative Jordan McRae is excited about the PLUS. "Our customers have always liked the Halimeter^®. The PLUS, with all the new features, should be a hit."

The company is offering introductory deals on the new instrument, and invites your inquiries.
