Volatile fingerprinting systems such as electronic noses have been developed over recent decades with applications in many fields, especially in food industry but also in medical diagnostics. One area of clinical interest is ventilator‐associated pneumonia (VAP), which is a significant challenge for intensive‐care doctors worldwide. This chapter discusses the main volatile fingerprinting technologies and their applications.
