If there are leaks in the bag, ambient air will diffuse into the bag, resulting in a
change in the concentration of NO over time. If ambient NO is higher than the NO
concentration in the bags, an increase in NO (above the small increase normally
observed with the bags) will be detected. If ambient NO is lower than the NO
concentration in the bag a decrease in NO can be observed. Discard any bags that
show large changes in NO concentration.
