Every organic cell has unique metabolic processes, most of them produce unique artifacts in the form of organic gases called VOC’s (Volatile Organic Compounds). In the human body most of these gases find their way to our lungs. By identifying gases associated with a specific organic cell, Scentech can create a metabolic “fingerprint” which can then be detected by our diagnostic systems that analyze exhaled breath. Scentech medical has been granted a comprehensive patent on these discovery and detection processes:
