Purpose The purpose of this study is to prepare various CeO2-based carbon material (CNT, CB, GO) nanocomposites through a wet chemical process for the development of a sensor probe to detect various environmental toxins by using an electrochemical approach under room temperature conditions. A comparative study on sensitive and selective phenolic sensor (4-methoxyphenol; 4-MP) has been fabricated by modifying a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) with various nanocomposites (NCs) such as CeO2, CeO2–CNT (carbon nanotubes), CeO2–CB (carbon black) and CeO2–GO (graphene oxide) NCs. Design/methodology/approach The CeO2–CNT NCs were prepared by the wet chemical method at low temperature. NCs were characterized by various methods such as transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier-transform infra-red (FTIR), ultra-violet/visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy and XRD (X-ray diffraction). CeO2–CNT NCs were immobilized as a film on the flat surface of the GCE by using binders (5% Nafion). The electrochemical measurements of the 4-MP detection with the CeO2–CNT NCs/Nafion/GCE sensor were studied by the current-voltage method. Findings In the optimal conditions, the sensitivity, detection limit and limit of quantification of 4-MP sensor probe were found to be 47.56 µAcm-2 µM−1, 12.0 ± 0.2 nM and 40.0 ± 0.5 nM (S/N of 3), respectively. Research limitations/implications This electrochemical sensor showed an acceptable analytical performance in the detection of 4-MP with higher sensitivity, lower detection limit, large dynamic concentration range, good reproducibility and fast response time. Practical implications This electrochemical approach can be applied practically for the determination of selective 4-MP in real environmental and extracted samples. Social implications CeO2–CNT NCs/Nafion/GCE sensor probe was used for the safety of environmental and health-care fields at larger scales. Originality/value This electrochemical approach is a significant achievement on the development of sensor probe. The results are indicated as being technically detailed with an up-to-date account of recent chemical sensor research studies.

In this approach, the performance of a newly developed sensor probe coated with low-dimensional Co3O4/Yb2O3 nanoparticles (NPs) in rapidly detecting 1,2-diaminobenzene was evaluated by an electrochemical technique. The sensor probe was fabricated by depositing a very thin layer consisting of synthesized Co3O4/Yb2O3 NPs using a 5% Nafion conducting binder onto a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The facile hydrothermally prepared Co3O4/Yb2O3 NPs were totally characterized by conventional methods such as FTIR, UV-vis, TEM, XPS, EDS, and XRD analyses. The fabricated chemical sensor probe was found to exhibit long-term activity, stability in electrochemical response, good sensitivity (5.6962 μAμM-1cm-2), lowest detection limit (0.02±0.001 pM), and broad linear dynamic range (0.1 pM to 0.01 mM). The observed performances suggest that the newly introduced sensor could play an efficient role in detecting 1,2-diaminobenzene especially in healthcare and environmental applications on a broad scale.

The facile wet-chemical technique was used to prepare the low-dimensional nano-formulated porous mixed metal oxide nanomaterials (CuO.Mn2O3.NiO; CMNO NMs) in an alkaline medium at low temperature. Detailed structural, morphological, crystalline, and functional characterization of CMNO NMs were performed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) analyses. An efficient and selective creatine (CA) sensor probe was fabricated by using CMNO NMs decorated onto glassy carbon electrode (GCE) as CMNO NMs/GCE by using Nafion adhesive (5% suspension in ethanol). The relation of current versus the concentration of CA was plotted to draw a calibration curve of the CMNO NMs/GCE sensor probe, which was found to have a very linear value (r2 = 0.9995) over a large dynamic range (LDR: 0.1 nM~0.1 mM) for selective CA detection. The slope of LDR by considering the active surface area of GCE (0.0316 cm2) was applied to estimate the sensor sensitivity (14.6308 µAµM−1 cm−2). Moreover, the detection limit (21.63 ± 0.05 pM) of CMNO MNs modified GCE was calculated from the signal/noise (S/N) ratio at 3. As a CA sensor probe, it exhibited long-term stability, good reproducibility, and fast response time in the detection of CA by electrochemical approach. Therefore, this research technique is introduced as a promising platform to develop an efficient sensor probe for cancer metabolic biomarker by using nano-formulated mixed metal oxides for biochemical as well as biomedical research for the safety of health care fields.

There has been different synthetic route used for the synthesis of zirconia mixed metal oxide nanoparticles. The different synthetic methods coupled with other factors like concentration, PH, type of precursor used etc help to synthesize zirconia mixed metal oxide nanoparticles having different physicochemical properties. This paper discusses the different synthetic routes of sol-gel, hydrothermal and coprecipitation method for the formation of zirconia in combination with other metal oxide to form zirconia mixed metal oxide nanoparticles, the physicochemical properties of the synthesized zirconia mixed metal oxide nanoparticle, their characterization and application.
