Researchers at Stony Brook University in New York have developed a breath analyzing device that can quickly identify a number of disease marker gases that could be signs of an underlying problem. The technology utilizes single crystal nanowires that are created by electrospinning. The configuration of metal and oxygen atoms in the nanowires defines which molecules are captured by the chip.
Here’s a video report from the National Science Foundation about the research:
