A new non-invasive method for the diagnosis and prevention of colorectal cancer
A Spanish university has developed a method for the diagnosis and prevention of colorectal cancer (CRC). Specifically, an accurate, simple, sensitive and efficient method of extraction and analysis of volatile organic compounds for application as a non-invasive screening test of CRC (stool analysis). It can be used in a wide range of patients, eliminating/reducing the number of false positives/negatives. Companies interested in license or technical cooperation agreements are sought.
