Gas Sensor Array Using a Hybrid Structure Based on Zeolite and Oxide Semiconductors for Multiple Bio-Gas Detection.

ABSTRACT: Semiconductor-type gas sensors, composed of metal-oxide semiconductors and porous zeolite materials, are attractive devices for bio-gas detection, particularly when used as bio-gas sensors such as electronic nose application. Previous studies have shown such detection can be obtained with a separate gas concentrator and a sensor device using zeolites and oxide semiconductors of WO₃ nanoparticles. By applying the gas concentrator, porous molecular structures alter both the gas sensitivity and the selectivity, and even can be used to define the sensor characteristics. Based on such a gas sensor design, we investigated the properties of an array of three sensors made of a layer of WO₃ nanoparticles coated with zeolites with different interactions between gas molecule adsorption and desorption. The array was tested with four volatile organic compounds, each measured at different concentrations. The results confirm that the features of individual zeolites combined with the hybrid gas sensor behavior, along with the differences among the sensors, are sufficient for enabling the discrimination of volatile compounds when disregarding their concentration.

A gas sensor array for the simultaneous detection of multiple VOCs.

Project description:Air quality around the globe is declining and public health is seriously threatened by indoor air pollution. Typically, indoor air pollutants are composed of a series of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that are generally harmful to the human body, especially VOCs with low molecular weights (less than 100 Da). Moreover, in some situations, more than one type of VOC is present; thus, a device that can detect one or more VOCs simultaneously would be most beneficial. Here, we synthesized a sensor array with 4 units to detect 4 VOCs: acetone (unit 1), benzene (unit 2), methanol (unit 3) and formaldehyde (unit 4) simultaneously. All units were simultaneously exposed to 2.5 ppm of all four VOCs. The sensitivity of unit 1 was 14.67 for acetone and less than 2.54 for the other VOCs. The sensitivities of units 2, 3 and 4 to benzene, methanol and formaldehyde were 2 18.64, 20.98 and 17.26, respectively, and less than 4.01 for the other VOCs. These results indicated that the sensor array exhibited good selectivity and could be used for the real-time monitoring of indoor air quality. Thus, this device will be useful in situations requiring the simultaneous detection of multiple VOCs.

Nanosheet-type tin oxide gas sensor array for mental stress monitoring.

Project description:Mental stress management has become significantly important because excessive and sustained mental stress can damage human health. In recent years, various biomarkers associated with mental stress have been identified. One such biomarker is allyl mercaptan. A nanosheet-type tin oxide exhibited high gas selectivity for allyl mercaptan; thus, in this study, a sensor array comprising nanosheet-type tin oxide gas sensors was fabricated to detecting allyl mercaptan. Supervised learning algorithms were use to build gas classification models based on the principal component analysis of the sensor signal responses from the sensor array. The comprehensive data provided by the classification models can be used to forecast allyl mercaptan with high accuracy.

Metal Oxide Nanorods-Based Sensor Array for Selective Detection of Biomarker Gases.

Project description:The breath gas analysis through gas phase chemical analysis draws attention in terms of non-invasive and real time monitoring. The array-type sensors are one of the diagnostic methods with high sensitivity and selectivity towards the target gases. Herein, we presented a 2 × 4 sensor array with a micro-heater and ceramic chip. The device is designed in a small size for portability, including the internal eight-channel sensor array. In2O3 NRs and WO3 NRs manufactured through the E-beam evaporator's glancing angle method were used as sensing materials. Pt, Pd, and Au metal catalysts were decorated for each channel to enhance functionality. The sensor array was measured for the exhaled gas biomarkers CH3COCH3, NO2, and H2S to confirm the respiratory diagnostic performance. Through this operation, the theoretical detection limit was calculated as 1.48 ppb for CH3COCH3, 1.9 ppt for NO2, and 2.47 ppb for H2S. This excellent detection performance indicates that our sensor array detected the CH3COCH3, NO2, and H2S as biomarkers, applying to the breath gas analysis. Our results showed the high potential of the gas sensor array as a non-invasive diagnostic tool that enables real-time monitoring.

Online Accurate Detection of Breath Acetone Using Metal Oxide Semiconductor Gas Sensor and Diffusive Gas Separation.

Project description:Breath acetone (BrAce) level is an indicator of lipid oxidation rate, which is crucial for evaluating the status of ketoacidosis, ketogenic diet, and fat burning during exercise. Despite its usefulness, detecting BrAce accurately is challenging because exhaled breath contains an enormous variety of compounds. Although many sensors and devices have been developed for BrAce measurement, most of them were tested with only synthetic or spiked breath samples, and few can detect low concentration BrAce in an online manner, which is critical for extending application areas and the wide acceptance of the technology. Here, we show that online detection of BrAce can be achieved using a metal oxide semiconductor acetone sensor. The high accuracy measurement of low concentration BrAce was enabled by separating major interference gases utilizing their large diffusion coefficients, and the accuracy is further improved by the correction of humidity effect. We anticipate that the approach can push BrAce measurement closer to being useful for various applications.

A Reduced GO-Graphene Hybrid Gas Sensor for Ultra-Low Concentration Ammonia Detection.

Project description:A hybrid structure gas sensor of reduced graphene oxide (RGO) decorated graphene (RGO-Gr) is designed for ultra-low concentration ammonia detection. The resistance value of the RGO-Gr hybrid is the indicator of the ammonia concentration and controlled by effective charge transport from RGO to graphene after ammonia molecule adsorption. In this hybrid material, RGO is the adsorbing layer to catch ammonia molecules and graphene is the conductive layer to effectively enhance charge/electron transport. Compared to a RGO gas sensor, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the RGO-Gr is increased from 22 to 1008. Meanwhile, the response of the RGO-Gr gas sensor is better than that of either a pristine graphene or RGO gas sensor. It is found that the RGO reduction time is related to the content of functional groups that directly reflect on the gas sensing properties of the sensor. The RGO-Gr gas sensor with 10 min reduction time has the best gas sensing properties in this type of sensor. The highest sensitivity is 2.88% towards 0.5 ppm, and the ammonia gas detection limit is calculated to be 36 ppb.

Hierarchical Laser-Patterned Silver/Graphene Oxide Hybrid SERS Sensor for Explosive Detection.

Project description:We demonstrate an ultrafast laser-ablated hierarchically patterned silver nanoparticle/graphene oxide (AgNP/GO) hybrid surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate for highly sensitive and reproducible detection of an explosive marker 2,4-dinitrotoluene (2,4-DNT). A hierarchical laser-patterned silver sheet (Ag-S) is achieved by ultrafast laser ablation in air with pulse energies of 25, 50, and 100 μJ. Multiple laser pulses at a wavelength of 800 nm and a pulse repetition rate of 50 fs at 1 kHz are directly focused on Ag-S to produce and deposit AgNPs onto Ag-S. The surface morphology of ablated Ag-S was evaluated using atomic force microscopy, optical profilometry, and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). A rapid increase in the ablation rate with increasing laser energy was observed. Selected area Raman mapping is performed to understand the intensity and size distribution of AgNPs on Ag-S. Further, GO was spin-coated onto the AgNPs produced by ultrafast ablation on Ag-S. The hierarchical laser-patterned AgNP/GO hybrid structure was characterized using FESEM, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and Raman spectroscopy. Further, hierarchical laser-patterned AgNP/GO hybrid structures have been utilized as SERS-active substrates for the selective detection of 2,4-DNT, an explosive marker. The developed SERS-active sensor shows good stability and high sensitivity up to picomolar (pM) concentration range with a Raman intensity enhancement of ∼1010 for 2,4-DNT. The realized enhancement of SERS intensity is due to the cumulative effect of GO coated on Ag-S as a proactive layer and AgNPs produced by ultrafast ablation.

Sensor array and gas chromatographic detection of the blood serum volatolomic signature of COVID-19.

Project description:Volatolomics is gaining consideration as a viable approach to diagnose several diseases, and it also shows promising results to discriminate COVID-19 patients via breath analysis. This paper extends the study of the relationship between volatile compounds (VOCs) and COVID-19 to blood serum. Blood samples were collected from subjects recruited at the emergency department of a large public hospital. The VOCs were analyzed with a gas chromatography mass spectrometer (GC/MS). GC/MS data show that in more than 100 different VOCs, the pattern of abundances of 17 compounds identifies COVID-19 from non-COVID with an accuracy of 89% (sensitivity 94% and specificity 83%). GC/MS analysis was complemented by an array of gas sensors whose data achieved an accuracy of 89% (sensitivity 94% and specificity 80%).

Patterned electrode-based amperometric gas sensor for direct nitric oxide detection within microfluidic devices.

Project description:This article describes a thin amperometric nitric oxide (NO) sensor that can be microchannel embedded to enable direct real-time detection of NO produced by cells cultured within the microdevice. A key for achieving the thin ( approximately 1 mm) planar sensor configuration required for sensor-channel integration is the use of gold/indium-tin oxide patterned electrode directly on a porous polymer membrane (pAu/ITO) as the base working electrode. The electrochemically deposited Au-hexacyanoferrate layer on pAu/ITO is used to catalyze NO oxidation to nitrite at lower applied potentials (0.65-0.75 V vs Ag/AgCl) and stabilize current output. Furthermore, use of a gas-permeable membrane to separate internal sensor compartments from the sample phase imparts excellent NO selectivity over common interfering agents (e.g., nitrite, ascorbate, ammonia, etc.) present in culture media and biological fluids. The optimized sensor design reversibly detects NO down to the approximately 1 nM level in stirred buffer and <10 nM in flowing buffer when integrated within a polymeric microfluidic device. We demonstrate utility of the channel-embedded sensor by monitoring NO generation from macrophages cultured within non-gas-permeable microchannels, as they are stimulated with endotoxin.

Fabrication and evaluation of a micro(bio)sensor array chip for multiple parallel measurements of important cell biomarkers.

Project description:This report describes the design and development of an integrated electrochemical cell culture monitoring system, based on enzyme-biosensors and chemical sensors, for monitoring indicators of mammalian cell metabolic status. MEMS technology was used to fabricate a microwell-format silicon platform including a thermometer, onto which chemical sensors (pH, O2) and screen-printed biosensors (glucose, lactate), were grafted/deposited. Microwells were formed over the fabricated sensors to give 5-well sensor strips which were interfaced with a multipotentiostat via a bespoke connector box interface. The operation of each sensor/biosensor type was examined individually, and examples of operating devices in five microwells in parallel, in either potentiometric (pH sensing) or amperometric (glucose biosensing) mode are shown. The performance characteristics of the sensors/biosensors indicate that the system could readily be applied to cell culture/toxicity studies.
