Cellulose-based micro/nanoparticles potentials for breath biomarker detection systems

With the accelerating development of biomedical science, biomarker detection has emerged as a powerful tool for the diagnosis of several serious metabolic diseases, the breath-exhaled volatile compound detection represents one of the most quick, time-saving non-invasive, and cost-effecting approaches that deserve to be deeply investigated; the big challenge for this area is the developing of the most specific and selective sensing systems; the material science is considered one of the promising choices; and cellulose-based micro/nanoparticles are a valuable platform for sensor development.
