INTRODUCTION: Enhancing paediatric asthma diagnosis is crucial. Molecular analysis of exhaled breath is a rapidly evolving field aimed at harnessing established and innovative technologies for clinical applications. This study evaluates the feasibili...
As breath nitric oxide (NO) is a biomarker of respiratory inflammation, reliable techniques for the online detection of ppb-level NO in exhaled breath are essential for the noninvasive diagnosis of respiratory inflammation. Here, we report a breath N...
In this paper, the first e-nose system coupled with machine learning algorithm for noninvasive measurement of total cholesterol level based on exhaled air sample was proposed. The study was conducted with the participation of 151 people, from whom a ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has high heterogeneity in etiologies and clinical manifestations. Expiratory Computed tomography (CT) can effectively assess air trapping, aiding in disease diagnosis. However, du...
Owing to the correlation between acetone in human's exhaled breath (EB) and blood glucose, the development of EB acetone gas-sensing devices is important for early diagnosis of diabetes diseases. In this article, a noninvasive blood glucose detection...
Ammonia (NH) in exhaled breath (EB) has been a biomarker for kidney function, and accurate measurement of NH is essential for early screening of kidney disease. In this work, we report an optical sensor that combines ultraviolet differential optical ...
This work, in a pioneering approach, attempts to build a biometric system that works purely based on the fluid mechanics governing exhaled breath. We test the hypothesis that the structure of turbulence in exhaled human breath can be exploited to bui...
Ground-level ozone ranks sixth among common air pollutants. It worsens lung diseases like asthma, emphysema, and chronic bronchitis. Despite recent attention from researchers, the link between exhaled breath and ozone-induced injury remains poorly un...
