Capteur à oxide métallique commercial pour l'analyse d'haleine sensible aux vapeurs d'alcane à longue chaine

Abstract

peer reviewedWithin an ongoing European project on breath analysis by IOMS, sensitivity of sensors to various VOCs is studied, as breath VOCs are considered as lung cancer biomarkers. Sensitivities of several commercial metal oxide sensors to various VOC have been studied. It was found that two sensors reacted to decane presence. This is an unusual property for metal oxide gas sensors. This paper shows obtained results and details the methodology employed to obtain them.Pathaco
