Research paper thumbnail of Non-enzymatic electrochemical detection of xanthine from edible oral arms of jellyfish Catostylus Perezi (Ranson 1945) using CuO nanostructures derived from sugar molasses

Therefore, rapid and economical methods are needed to monitor for toxicants such as Xanthine present in its meat. With the aid of highly electrocatalytic CuO nanostructures prepared with sugar molasses, a non-enzymatic electrochemical sensor for measuring xanthine was developed in this study. CuO nanostructures were studied for their catalytic performance and charge transfer rate due to sugar molasses' influence on their surface morphology, crystalline and optical properties. A total of two samples were made with molasses in volumes of 1 mL and 2 mL. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and UV-visible spectroscopy have been used to examine the morphological, structural, and physical-chemical properties of CuO nanostructures produced by low-temperature aqueous chemica...

In this study, we have developed a green method for tuning the surface properties of nickel‐cobalt bimetallic oxide (NiCo2O4) by adding mustard (Brassica Campestris) leaves extract during hydrothermal growth. The mustard (Brassica Campestris) leaves extract is rich with a variety of phytochemicals, which can easily tune the surface properties of NiCo2O4 nanostructures, thereby paving the way toward the development of sensitive and selective non‐enzymatic glucose sensors. The effect of various amounts of mustard (Brassica Campestris) leaves extract (0–20 ml) was also studied to find out the optimal conditions for growing surface‐modified NiCo2O4 nanostructures. The morphology and crystalline structure of the nanomaterials were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and powder X‐ray diffraction (XRD) techniques, respectively. The presence of an increasing quant...

When it exceeds a certain concentration, it causes blindness, organ failure, and even death if not recognized in time. Analytical techniques such as chromatography are used to detect dangerous concentrations of methanol, which are very accurate but also expensive, cumbersome, and time-consuming. Therefore, a gas sensor that is inexpensive and portable and capable of distinguishing methanol from ethanol would be very useful. Here, we present a resistive gas sensor, based on tin oxide nanowires, that works in a thermal gradient. By combining responses at various temperatures and using machine learning algorithms (PCA, SVM, LDA), the device can distinguish methanol from ethanol in a wide range of concentrations (1–100 ppm) in both dry air and under different humidity conditions (25–75% RH). The proposed sensor, which is small and inexpensive, demonstrates the...

Research paper thumbnail of Ultrasensitive NO2 gas sensing performance of two dimensional ZnO nanomaterials: Nanosheets and nanoplates

Here, the NO2 gas sensing performance of porous ZnO nanosheets and nanoplates were investigated, with different shape and thickness. It was found that ultra-thin ZnO nanoplates had a higher sensitivity than coral-like ZnO nanosheets. The results were attributed to the high specific surface and very small thickness of the ultrathin nanoplates. The nanoplates have indeed a thickness of 15 nm compared to that of the nanosheets which is 100 nm, and a BET surface area of 75 m2/g, while that of the nanosheets is 6 m2/g. The chemosensor based on ultra-thin ZnO nanoplates shows a response (calculated as the ratio between the resistance of the sensor in the presence of the gas and in its absence) of 76 to 0.5 ppm of NO2 at 200 °C, with a theoretical detection limit of 3 parts per trillion and a selectivity higher than 760 towards acetone, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, triethylamine, SO2 and CO. The specific surface and the small thickness of the ultra-thin nanoplates contribute to its highly improved sensing performance, making it ideal for NO2 gas sensing.

Therefore, the need for gas sensors to monitor hazardous gases, such as ammonia, at low operating temperatures has become increasingly important in many fields. Sensitivity, selectivity, low cost, and ease of production are crucial characteristics for creating a capillary network of sensors for the protection of the environment and human health. However, developing gas sensors that are not only efficient but also small and inexpensive and therefore integrable into everyday life is a difficult challenge. In this paper, we report on a resistive sensor for ammonia detection based on thin V2O5 nanosheets operating at room temperature. The small thickness and porosity of the V2O5 nanosheets give the sensors good performance for sensing ammonia at room temperature (RT), with a relative change of resist...

Monitoring of hazardous gases is nowadays very important, since the urbanized environment is more subject to this kind of pollutants. Therefore, a capillary network of small gas sensors capable to check the quality of the environment is necessary. Metal oxide gas nanosensors are small economic devices that can be easily integrated in any context, however they unfortunately lack of selectivity. We present an approach using hydrothermally grown nickel oxide nanowires working at different temperatures and creating a virtual sensors array, thus exploiting the thermal fingerprints (sensor response as a function of temperature) of the gases. Using only one nanostructured material (nickel oxide) and different machine learning techniques, the system can easily discriminate any of 7 harmful gases (C 2 H 5 OH, H 2 , CO, LPG, CO 2 , NH 3 and H 2 S, all of them reducing gases) with an accuracy of 100%. Furthermore, the nanosensor also evaluates the gas concentration with an average error lower than 15%. Our results show that, exploiting thermal fingerprints from a temperature gradient, single metal oxide resistive nanosensors can efficiently discriminate specific hazardous gases.
