NIOX® vs other devices
Discover the differences between NIOX® and other devices
Why choose NIOX®?
Fully conforms to the ATS & ERS Standards1
With no unexpected servicing, reconditioning, and direct NO measurement, NIOX® is designed with healthcare professionals in mind, whether that is primary care or secondary care.
NIOX® is the only FeNO technology available in the EU and US markets that follows the published ATS & ERS online measurement protocols in full, including inhalation of NO-free air.1,2
The key differences
Truly removes
ambient NO
Fully conforming the ATS & ERS standards, the integrated NIOX NeutroNO™ scrubber truly removes ambient nitric oxide on inhalation, alongside only taking in the last few seconds of the exhalation flow to analyse the lower airways.1-4
No servicing, recalibration or downtime
NIOX®’s pre-calibrated sensors eliminate downtime, have no servicing, recalibration or waiting, and are always ready.
Self-contained and fully dependable
As a standalone desktop device, NIOX® can be used plugged in or on its all-day battery life, making it ready for testing on the go.

By removing ambient NO, on inhalation and before the measurement begins, clinicians can be confident that the measured FeNO reflects the patient’s own NO production, providing a more accurate and reliable indicator of airway inflammation.3,4,11
Before the FeNO measurement, the user inhales through the patented NIOX® Breathing Handle containing a NeutroNO® scrubber. The scrubber removes ambient nitric oxide (NO) from the inhaled air, preventing it from contaminating the exhaled breath sample.
This initial 4-5 second inhalation is a quick, easy, but essential step that removes the influence of ambient NO before the measurement begins. Environmental NO levels can range from 2 ppb to 500 ppb, and without a clean inhalation, ambient NO could artificially elevate the FeNO reading.8-10 By eliminating this source of contamination, the measured FeNO value accurately reflects the patient's own airway NO production.
Removing ambient NO helps ensure accurate, reliable, and reproducible FeNO measurements that clinicians can trust, supporting confident clinical decision-making.8,12
Its proven accuracy, reliability, ease of use, and seamless integration into clinical workflows have made NIOX® the benchmark against which other FeNO technologies are often compared.11-13
With more than two decades of experience and continuous innovation, NIOX® remains a leader in FeNO testing and has helped establish FeNO as an important tool in the diagnosis and management of asthma.
The NIOX® difference
What makes NIOX® different?
Fully conformant to ATS&ERS standards1
NIOX® is the only portable device to fully conform to the ATS & ERS standards for FeNO testing.1 Which is one of the reasons, it is the technology of choice!1
The ultimate NIOX® testing experience
NIOX PRO® is designed by NIOX® but inspired by you. This is the best FeNO testing experience that NIOX® has ever engineered, and you can only get that with NIOX®.
The gold standard technology1
Featuring in the most clinical studies, and used by thousands of healthcare professionals around the world: NIOX® technology is considered the gold standard.1,14,15
Measures Nitric Oxide
Some FeNO devices estimate FeNO using gas conversions and complicated algorithms. With NIOX®, we simply measure NO directly.
No reconditioning or servicing
NIOX® devices are pre-calibrated, so no waiting between tests, and no servicing or maintenance is required. Never worry about downtime with NIOX®.
Transparent pricing
Our commercial model is transparent, meaning that there are never any hidden costs. Our quotes are accurate, like our devices.11
