description This paper provides an overview of the development of the optical fibre based sensor to detect halitosis (bad breath) using an open-path technique.

Then, the developed sensor was used in cross sensitivity evaluation between Methyl Mercaptan and other breathing gases such as Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide, and water vapor to confirm the reliability of the sensor. The absorption cross section spectrum of the Methyl Mercaptan which generated from the study almost match up the theory with the potential peak selection at 203.5nm.

Experimental results validate the use of the open-path fibre technique in a halitosis sensor within the selected ultraviolet region.
