| Research Abstract |
In order to establish a basic technique measuring specific gases from skin with high sensitivity, several techniques to get trace amounts of gases were tried and compared. By comparing and analyzing data obtained from patients and healthy subjects, specific gases for breast cancer were evaluated. PDMS were used as adsorbent material for gases. PDMSs were fixed by plaster commercially available on some positions on breasts. The results shows that the PDMS fixed near nipple adsorbed gases from the gas with high efficiency.
