An apparatus and method for determining the presence of a disease by analyzing a specimen by providing a vial partially containing the specimen and partially containing a headspace above the specimen, injecting an inert gas into the specimen in the vial to cause bubbling of the gas throughout at least a portion of the specimen such that the gas mixes with volatile organic compounds (VOCs) present in the specimen to create a VOC/gas mixture that is released into the headspace, collecting the VOC/gas mixture from the headspace in the vial, supplying the VOC/gas mixture to a chamber within the apparatus, causing the VOC/gas mixture to pass over a sensor array in proximity to the chamber, the sensor array generating an electrical signal as a function of VOCs detected in the VOC/gas mixture, and processing the electrical signal to determine the presence of a disease in the specimen.

A tag dispenser may be used for holding and distributing tags near the barrel of a nail gun so that, in use, a nail is deployed through a tag onto a nailing surface. The tag dispense may include a tag housing for holding a plurality of tags and a wiper for pushing the tags towards a tag opening, where a tag may be positioned for a nail to be struck therethrough. The tag housing may be attached to a lower housing where the wiper is housed. The lower housing may be connected to an adapter for attachment to the nail gun. Upon compression of the nail gun, the tag dispenser may compress mechanically pivoting the wiper arm resulting in the tag being placed into the tag opening.
