More recently, online measurement of carbon dioxide off-gas production by Avicel-grown C. thermocellum was found to be a robust technique for screening purposes [ 16].
The pH and the concentrations of (dry) cell mass, glucose, erythritol, ribitol, glycerol, disaccharides, trisaccharides, polysaccharides, amino acids in medium, oxygen and carbon dioxide in off-gas were monitored during the cultivation.

Any carbon dioxide driven off by the heat will go into a mass spectrometer, which can measure the ratio of carbon 12 and carbon 13.
Carbon emissions would also be reduced, as the carbon dioxide given off when burning is offset by the carbon absorbed by the tree from which the wood was cut.
Before the industrial age, carbon dioxide levelled off at about 280 parts per million.
The new research suggests they replaced their toothed relatives as the dominant species when high levels of carbon dioxide killed off important microscopic marine creatures, leading to a mass extinction about 90 million years ago.
The architects who designed the house assume the carbon dioxide given off by the boiler is offset by the amounts absorbed when the crop fuel was grown.
Participants undergo cognitive assessment, measurements of cerebral blood flow using Transcranial Doppler, and central endothelial function by measuring changes in cerebral blood flow in response to changes in end tidal carbon dioxide at baseline (off antihypertensives), 6, and 12 months.
Isotopic labeling of carbon dioxide in the off-gas was also measured by an on-line mass spectrometer.
