Carbon Nanotubes Detect Lung Cancer Markers in the Breath

(PhysOrg.com) -- Using an array of nanotube devices, each coated with a different organic material, researchers at the Israel Institute of Technology have developed diagnostic system that may be able to diagnose lung cancer simply by sampling a patient`s breath. The results of this study, which was led by Hossam Haick, Ph.D., appear in the journal Nano Letters.
