Such cross-reactive sensors are highly sensitive to the collective changes in the VOCs spectrum [8].Therefore, we designed a case–control study, in which breath and sputum sampling was performed in 210 adult participants, after informed consent, at three sites in Cape Town, South Africa, between November 2011 and March 2012. The study population consisted of two main subgroups. The first subgroup included those in … ER -
