Abstract
This topics aims at demonstrating the feasibility of electrochemical sensors application for a noninvasive, safe and patient-friendly methodology for on-site rapid diagnosis of tropical diseases. The proposed approach is based on breath samples analyses, which are easy to obtain and present no discomfort or risk for patients’ health. In this study will be enrolled three different types of neglected tropical diseases from different geographical locations (Europe, South America and Nord Africa).
