This work deals with the development of water-soluble optical sensors based on ruthenium(II) tris(diimine) complexes that exhibit high molar absorptivity and are emissive in aqueous media. Palladium-catalyzed arylation of polyamines with 3-bromo-1,10...

A two-dimensional (2D) Dy2O3-Pd-PDA/rGO heterojunction nanocomposite has been synthesised and tested for hydrogen (H2) gas sensing under various functioning conditions, including different H2 concentrations (50 ppm up to 6000 ppm), relative humidity...

In this work, an optical fiber sensor based on the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) phenomenon has been designed for the detection of two different chemical species (mercury and hydrogen peroxide) by using Layer-by-Layer Embedding (LbL-E) a...

This study aimed to remove carbamazepine from aqueous solutions, using functional silica phenylamine (SiBN), which is characterized and showed excellent chemical and thermal stability. Adsorbents based on silica were developed due to their unusually...

The use of graphene and other carbon nanoparticles is now of interest for developing chemical (gas and compounds detectors) and physical sensors. In this work, a graphene nanoplatelet (GNP)-PDMS sensor is proposed. More specifically, its strain-sensi...

The application of ion-selective electrodes (ISEs) in the detection and determination of environmental pollutants has become a very important mission in the last few years. Two selective and sensitive membrane electrodes were fabricated in the labora...

Novel water-swollen photo-crosslinked membranes were obtained by copolymerization of the N-vinylpyrrolidone, butyl acrylate and ethyl methacrylate monomers functionalized with naphthalimide groups, as pH sensitive fluorescence probes. For that purpos...

On-site determination of trace copper ions in natural waters is of great significance to environmental monitoring, and how to develop accurate and specific point-of-care test methods is one critical issue. In the study, a paper-based analytical devic...

Peptide-based materials provide a versatile platform for sensing and ion sequestration since peptides are endowed with stimuli-responsive properties. The mechanism of molecular sensing is often based on peptide structural changes (or switching), caus...

In this work, sensing behaviors and mechanisms of two crosslinked copolymers with dimethylamine and dimethylamide functional groups were compared and investigated for their ability to detect hydrogen chloride (HCl) gas. The crosslinked copolymer film...
