From: A non-invasive tool for detecting cervical cancer odor by trained scent dogs
Medical adsorbent surgical bandages as “adsorber” of several human fluids for cancer detection. The pad could contain a mixture of cells (epithelial healthy and sick cells) and certain other fluids potentiating the cancer odor emitted by the patient. Also presented is the detection of mitochondrial DNA obtained from cells on the surface of the surgical bandage. Lane a) molecular weight marker 100 base pairs (bp) DNA ladder; Lane b) DNA positive control; Lane c) negative control; Lane d) amplicon (150 bp) from control subject without cervical lesion, and Lane e) from a Cervical cancer patient-affected (CC)
