Abstract: Various embodiments of a gas sensor device and method of fabricating a gas sensor device are provided. In one embodiment a gas sensor device includes a base substrate, an electrolyte layer disposed on the base substrate and a plurality of potentiometric sensor units electrically coupled to the base substrate. Each potentiometric sensor unit includes an electrolyte layer disposed on the base substrate, a sensing electrode comprising tungsten oxide (WO3)and platinum (Pt), a reference electrode comprising Pt, and a plurality of connectors coupled to the plurality of potentiometric sensors to connect the plurality of potentiometric sensors in series.

Abstract: Various methods, computing devices, and systems for collecting breath from a subject are described. In one aspect, a method for collecting breath from a subject includes capturing a target sample from an exhaled breath of a subject having a target concentration of a target volatile organic compound (VOC). The target sample of the target VOC is captured from the non-alveolar volume fraction of the exhaled breath, and the exhaled breath represents the lung capacity of the subject. The target concentration of a target VOC can be, for example, an elevated or a lowered concentration of the target sample of exhaled breath relative to the remaining fractions of the exhaled breath, and can found in a particular fraction of the exhaled breath depending on the particular compound targeted for collection or analysis.
