Abstract

•By analyzing the VOCs presents in our breath, we could identify if some components should not be present in our bodies, or their concentration is higher or lower than normal.•To collect breath samples for VOC analysis, we looked into the current available methodologies and, due to their high prices, tried to develop our own easy and cheap device. A simple single use Minigrip LDPE plastic bag was used in this work and its efficiency and performance were tested.•After breath collection, samples were analyzed using Thermal Desorption (TD) system, coupled with Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometer (GC-MS).
