Olfactive Discriminative Ability of Dogs When Confronted With Seizure and Non-seizure Samples // Identification of Potential Biomarkers for Epilepsy in Human Sweat.

Dogs belonging to MDD will be trained and asked to discriminate between odour sweat samples from epilepsy patients associated with a seizure ("seizure sample") and samples collected when no seizure was close in time ("non-seizure sample"). The same type positive and negative sweat samples will be analysed by Florida International University using solid phase micro extraction (SPME) GC-MS to try to identify volatile organic components (VOC) specific to the samples associated with seizures.
