Objectives: Dogs can be trained to identify several substances not detected by humans, corresponding to specific volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The presence of VOCs, triggered by SARS-CoV-2 infection, was tested in sweat from Long COVID patients. Patients and methods: An axillary sweat sample of Long COVID patients and of COVID-19 negative, asymptomatic individuals was taken at home to avoid any hospital contact. Swabs were randomly placed in olfaction detection cones, and the material sniffed by at least 2 trained dogs. Results: Forty-five Long COVID patients, mean age 45 (6-71), 73.3% female, with prolonged symptoms evolving for a mean of 15.2 months (5-22) were tested. Dogs discriminated in a positive way 23/45 (51.1%) Long COVID patients versus 0/188 (0%) control individuals (p<.0001). Conclusion:This study suggests the persistence of a viral infection in some Long COVID patients and the possibility of providing a simple, highly sensitive, non-invasive test to detect viral presence, during acute and extended phases of COVID-19.

Based on the photo ionization principle, a gas sensor for the hydrazine is designed. The photo ionization gas sensor can also measure other volatile organic compounds and other gases in concentrations from sub parts per billion to 10000 parts per million (ppm). This gas sensor is the most efficient and inexpensive type of gas sensor. They are capable of giving real-time readings and monitoring continuously. The design of micro ionization chamber, signal detection circuits and installation technology is expatiated in detail. Through researching the design of cell structure, the cell with integration and miniaturization has been devised. By taking Single-Chip Microcomputer (SCM) as intelligence handling, the functional block diagram of gas detection system is designed with the analyzing and devising of its hardware and software system. Experiment results show that the gas sensor has reached the technology requirement of portable, mini-volume, high accuracy, fast response, continuous test, and is able to apply in detecting the organic gases. Therefore, the photo ionization sensor has a promising future for the hydrazines gas and volatile organic compounds detection.

The authors developed highly sensitive sensing layers for detection of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) by using polymeric nanomaterials. In this chapter, they describe their recent progress on the design of polymeric sensing layers for the chemical sensors. The nanostructures of polymeric sensing layer strongly influenced the sensitivity and selectivity for VOCs sensings.
