Herein, graphene oxide is produced by electrochemical oxidation method from graphite rod to examine its hydrogen peroxide sensing ability. The electrochemically produced graphene oxide is characterized by SEM and XRD. A few layers of Graphene Oxide(GO) sheets and corrugations in graphene sheets appeared intensely crumpled and folded into a typical wrinkled structure after electrochemical oxidat...

A highly sensitive and selective formaldehyde sensor is prepared by using mesoporous Ti 0.75 Nb 0.25 N supported Pt NPs as a high efficiency gas sensing electrode material.

A molecular sensor, also known as a chemosensor or probe, is a molecular or supramolecular-based system that is able to transform probe–analyte interactions into a signal which allows analyte sensing. The most common output signals are usually optical or electrochemical changes. In particular, optical responses have become very popular due to the possibility of using low-cost, widely available ...

Selectivity and low power consumption are major challenges in the development of sophisticated gas sensor devices. A sensor system is presented that unifies selective sensor-gas interactions and energy-harvesting properties, using defined organic-inorganic hybrid materials. Simulations of chemical-binding interactions and the consequent electronic surface modulation give more insight into the c...

A BODIPY-based selective thiophenol probe capable of discriminating aliphatic thiols is reported. The fluorescence off-on effect upon reaction with thiol is elucidated with theoretical calculations. The sensing of thiophenol is associated with a color change from red to yellow and 63-fold enhancement in green fluorescence. Application of the probe for selective thiophenol detection is demonstra...

Pro-gelator 1 shows visual detection of Ag + ion through sol-to-gel conversion. Additionally, it exhibits the selective sensing Hg 2+ over a series metal ions in solution.

In this study, the complexation of 2,3-dihydro-1H-phenothiazine-4(5aH)-one with 14 various cations were investigated by density functional theory. At the outset, the structures of the ligand, different cations and their derived complexes were optimized geometrically. Then, IR calculations were performed on them in order to acquire the formation enthalpy and Gibbs free energy values. The obtaine...

A novel potentiometric ion-selective PVC membrane sensor for analysis of atorvastatin (AT) in pharmaceutical preparations based on atorvastatin-(tetraphenyl borate), (AT-(TPB)2) as sensing element, tetraphenyl borate as additive and tris-2-ethyl-hexyl phosphate (TOP) as plasticizer solvent was prepared. The electrode shows a good Nernestian response over the concentration range of 0.09–5586 µ...

Supported Lipid Bilayers (SLBs) on Polyelectrolyte Multilayers (PEMs) have large potential as models for developing sensor devices. SLBs can be designed with receptors and channels, which benefit from the biological environment of lipid layers, to create a sensing interface ions biomarkers. PEMs assembled by Layer-by-Layer (LBL) technique used supports bilayer enable an easy integration almost ...
