Figure 2From: Storage conditions for stability of offline measurement of fractional exhaled nitric oxide after collection for epidemiologic research Changes in FeNO levels (ppb) with time after collection in relation to the initial values. Mylar bags were stored at 4°C (A) and room temperature (B) after collection of exhaled air. The subjects were divided into four groups by the quartiles of FeNO levels immediately after collection: Q1, ≥ 51.0 ppb; Q2, 30.4–50.5 ppb; Q3, 22.4–29.0 ppb; Q4, ≤ 20.0 ppb.Back to article page
