Stamatios Giannoukos

Dr. Stamatios Giannoukos is a Lecturer at the Department of Chemistry and Applied Biosciences at ETH Zürich. His research focuses on innovative analytical methodologies for breath analysis and environmental monitoring, leveraging secondary electrospray ionization (SESI) and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). Key areas include untargeted metabolomics, livestock metabolic profiling, and portable instrumentation development.

Research interests emphasize non-invasive sampling techniques for biomedical and agricultural applications. Notable work includes optimizing electrolyte solutions for breath metabolomics, developing biomarker identification protocols for dairy cow metabolism, and evaluating polymer sampling bags for breath storage. His studies bridge fundamental analytical chemistry with practical applications in healthcare, agriculture, and environmental science.

Publications highlight advancements in SESI-HRMS instrumentation, including ion suppression mitigation and internal standard systems. Collaborations span interdisciplinary projects like the NapBiome trial (gut microbiota and child development) and field campaigns in global pollution hotspots (e.g., Delhi, Sarajevo Canton).
