Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is an aggressive cancer associated with asbestos exposure. MPM is often diagnosed late, at a point where limited treatment options are available, but early intervention could improve the chances of successful treatment for MPM patients. Biomarkers to detect MPM in at-risk individuals are needed to implement earl...

Thinning is an expensive and time-consuming management practice used in peach orchards to improve resource distribution among plants and improve production quality. Determining the right time and intensity for thinning is challenging and involves expertise. Furthermore, it generally consumes many hours of work, which makes, in some cases, unfeasibl...

Hlapne organske spojine (HOS) so lahko naravnega ali antropogenega izvora in lahko vplivajo na zdravje ljudi, kakovost zraka in na materiale ter na predmete, ki se nahajajo v prostorih s povišano koncentracijo HOS. V svoji diplomski nalogi sem v izbranih prostorih fakultete meril celokupne koncentracije HOS s senzorjem in s pomočjo pasivnih vzorčev...

Selective and sensitive detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are critically needed for various applications like environmental sustainability, industrial safety, healthcare, etc Metal oxides are one of the most explored chemiresistive sensing materials because of their high sensitivity, but they lack selectivity. This work reports synthes...

In August 2021, Blue Origin launched their un-crewed NS-17 mission aboard their New Shepard launch vehicle. Among the scientific payloads was NASA’s Orbital Syngas Commodity Augmentation Reactor (OSCAR), a flight-capable test rig allowing the combustion of ~10 g of simulated astronaut trash. Developed at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center, OSCAR measured ...

Introduction Individuals with diabetes mellitus (DM) are at an increased risk of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection and progressing from latent tuberculosis (TB) infection to active tuberculosis disease. TB in the DM population is more likely to go undiagnosed due to smear-negative results. Methods Exhaled breath samples were collected and ...

Introduction Metal carpentry includes a wide range of work activities such as welding and cutting metallic components, use of solvents and paints. Therefore, the employees in these types of activities are mainly exposed to welding fumes and volatile organic solvents. Here, we present an NMR-based metabolomic approach for assessing urinary profiles ...

Lung cancer subtyping, particularly differentiating adenocarcinoma (ADC) from squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), is paramount for clinicians to develop effective treatment strategies. In this study, we aimed: (i) to discover volatile organic compound (VOC) biomarkers for precise diagnosis of ADC and SCC, (ii) to investigated the impact of risk factors ...

We investigated the correlation between urine VOC metabolites and airway function in children exposed to anthropogenic volatile organic compounds (VOCs), notable pollutants impacting respiratory health. Out of 157 respondents, 141 completed skin prick tests, spirometry, IOS, and provided urine samples following the International Study of Asthma and...

Gas sensing technology has evolved over the last 50 years but there has been a lacuna to understand the sensing mechanism. The understanding becomes even more complicated when gases like Benzene, Toluene, Ethyl Benzene, and Xylene (BTEX) are sensed using conventional gas sensors. BTEX gases have inert chemical behaviour, making it difficult to dete...
