Abstract

Breath odor contains volatile compounds that can reflect the body’s metabolic condition, including those associated with fasting. This study aims to classify breath odor patterns in fasting and non-fasting individuals using an electronic nose (e-nose) combined with the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) method. The e-nose system was developed using an array of five MQ gas sensors (MQ-2, MQ-3, MQ-4, MQ-5, and MQ-6) to detect breath samples from 100 respondents, consisting of 50 fasting and 50 non-fasting individuals. The sensor responses were recorded and analyzed using PCA for dimensionality reduction and data pattern visualization. The results show that the first two principal components account for 81.2% of the total data variance, with contributions of 56.1% from PC1 and 25.1% from PC2. The PCA score plot demonstrates a relatively clear separation between the breath odor patterns of the fasting and non-fasting groups. These findings indicate that the developed e-nose system has potential as a rapid and non-invasive method for breath-based classification.
