Origin of human breath isoprene unraveled – the tale behind our discovery
Here, we have discovered the genetic origin and metabolic source of human exhaled isoprene. Now, isoprene is the first volatile organic breath marker with confirmed endogenous pathway. Our findings will translate isoprene as a noninvasive biomarker for various applications in clinical sciences.
