Nowadays, there is a lot of reports related to varieties of gases detectable by carbon nanostructure-based gas sensors. These materials can respond to low concertation of gases like VOC (volatile organic compounds), toxic gases or traces of biological molecules. One of the potential application in medicine is using carbon nanomaterial-based gas chemiresistor as a quick diagnostic tool similar to a breathalyser. The base concept is to detect low concentrations of metabolic products in human breath connected with human organism disorders like: presence of acetone related to diabetes (ketosis) or the presence of ammonia accompanying chronic kidney disease. Therefore, we would like to present the preliminary research about the possibility of using carbon nanostructured-based chemiresistor to detect ppm level concentrations of acetone.
