Abstract EN
Today, exhaled nitric oxide has been studied the most, and most researches have now focusd on asthma.
More than a thousand different volatile organic compounds have been observed in low concentrations in normal human breath.
Alkanes and methylalkanes, the majority of breath volatile organic compounds, have been increasingly used by physicians as a novel method to diagnose many diseases without discomforts of invasive procedures.
None of the individual exhaled volatile organic compound alone is specific for disease.
Exhaled breath analysis techniques may be available to diagnose and monitor the diseases in home setting when their sensitivity and specificity are improved in the future.
