Patent attributes
In some aspects, the disclosure relates to compositions and method for detection, classification, and treatment of disease or other body status. The methods and compositions may be methods or compositions for identification of pathogenic infections or other diseases in patients using an inhalable nanosensor having a volatile reporter. The disclosure is based, in part, on synthetic biomarkers (e.g., inhalable nanosensors) that are capable of distinguishing (e.g., classifying) different disease or status associated enzymes in a subject by examining the effect of those enzymes on a synthetic volatile reporter.
