Numerous detection systems are available for measuring halitosis. In order to examine their agreement, a study was conducted comparing four selected measuring methods in 100 subjects (52 females, 48 males; mean age: 25 years). Organoleptic halitosis measurement was carried out by an odor judge, and compared with instrumental halitosis measurement by sulfide monitoring using Halimeter, Fresh Kiss, and Halitox (halitosis linked toxin detection assay), with which both VSC (volatile sulphur compounds) and polyamines can be detected. The results show that the values recorded by the Halimeter correlated best with the organoleptic assessment and the least with the results of Fresh Kiss.
有许多检测系统可用于测量口臭。为了检验它们之间的一致性，开展了一项研究，在100名受试者（52名女性，48名男性；平均年龄：25岁）中比较四种选定的测量方法。由一名气味评判员进行口臭的感官测量，并与使用Halimeter、Fresh Kiss和Halitox（口臭相关毒素检测法）通过硫化物监测进行的口臭仪器测量相比较，通过这些方法可以检测挥发性硫化物（VSC）和多胺。结果表明，Halimeter记录的值与感官评估的相关性最好，与Fresh Kiss的结果相关性最小。
