Abstract
⺠Ethane is formed in oxidative damage of omega-3 fatty acids. ⺠Ethane can be detected in breath. ⺠Breath ethane levels were elevated in patients with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. ⺠Ethane levels were not related to omega-3 fatty acid abundance. ⺠Breath analysis can monitor oxidative stress associated with mental illness.
