Abstract

To look for gastric cancer cell volatile organic compound biomarkers is helpful to develop simple fast diagnosis method for gastric cancer. This chapter summarizes eight volatile organic compound biomarkers that were recognized from gastric cancer MGC803 cells and normal gastric mucous GES-1 cells. The MCNTs covered with Au-Ag nanocomposites were used as a sensing film and an ultrasensitive electrochemical detection system was established. Identified VOCs associated with gastric cancer cells and established electrochemical assay systems have great potential in applications such as early diagnosis and prognosis of gastric cancer.
