This system will soon detect signs of disease or infection through the patient's breathing.
This tiny electronic sensor system is a tiny, thin piece of paper called a grapheme - a thick layer of carbon atoms. Its surface is considered super sensitive to germs.
Through the patient's breath, this sensor transmits the information it collects on the patient's favor. Then refer to the treating doctor.
The scientists said they were planning to carefully build the system of amino acids on the surface of the grapheme. This will detect individual individuals in the patient.
Currently he is applying for a license to manufacture and commercialize the equipment.
