Throughout this book, readers will learn about the latest research on VOCs, their production, release, and detection in various body fluids. At the heart of this book is the matter of early diagnosis and screening for colorectal cancer using these biomarkers.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe chapters cover topics such as the production of VOCs in neoplasia, their release into the gut and bloodstream, and their detection in feces, exhaled breath, and urine. The authors provide an expert analysis of various analytical platforms used for VOC detection and identification, including gas sensors array-based E-noses and gas chromatography. Particular attention is given to how VOCs can be used as potential biomarkers for colorectal cancer. In addition to this, the work explores alternative strategies for colorectal cancer screening and early diagnosis.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is a must-read for researchers in the field of cancer research, oncology, gastroenterology, and medical diagnostics. It provides valuable insights into novel methods for early detection of colorectal cancer, making it a valuable resource for academics across the disciplines of medical science.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArcangelo Picciariello, MD, PhD\u003c\/strong\u003e is an Assistant Professor of General Surgery at the University of Salento, Lecce, Italy.
