Development of a low-cost hand-held nitric oxide (NO) sensor with high selectivity, sensitivity and low detection limit is attractive for environment and health monitoring applications. NO gas sensor was fabricated using hydrothermally grown ZnO nanorods (ZnO NRs). The sensing performance like sensor response, sensitivity, detection limit has been improved significantly by attaching gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) with ZnO NRs. Au NPs were synthesized by chemical reduction method from gold chloride trihydrate. The attachment of Au NPs on nanorods was done by spin coating method. The maximum sensor response and sensitivity were obtained at [Formula: see text]C operating temperature with [Formula: see text]l gold loading. The interference study of the sensor was carried out with acetone, ammonia, carbon monoxide, hydrogen peroxide and propanol. It demonstrated high selectivity towards the interfering gases and high humid condition. Au-decorated ZnO NRs exhibited very low detection limit [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]ppb, which is attractive for biomedical applications.

Designing and developing sensitive electrochemical sensors have always been paid attention to achieve the accurate detection of ammonia–nitrogen in the aqueous environment. Herein, a two-step electrodeposition route was used to achieve a Ni foam-supported polypyrrole nanospheres and Pt nanostars sensing electrode (Pt-PPy-Ni foam) for ammonia–nitrogen detection. After controlling the deposition time of Pt nanostars, the optimal Pt-PPy-Ni foam electrode exhibited greater electrocatalytic ability for ammonia oxidation reaction with a current density of 41.73 mA cm[Formula: see text] than that of Pt-Ni foam. This enhanced electrocatalytic ability could be attributed to the excellent adsorption of polypyrrole nanospheres for ammonia and the great catalytic activity of Pt nanostars for the ammonia oxidation reaction. This Pt-PPy-Ni foam electrode showed great detection performances with a sensitivity of 0.013 mA [Formula: see text]M[Formula: see text], and a detection limit of 8.72 [Formula: see text]M. Moreover, accepted results were obtained for the recovery measurements of lake and seawater samples with recoveries from 101.05% to 102.27% and 90.73% to 91.70%. In addition, Pt-PPy-Ni foam sensor exhibited good anti-interference ability with low current charges, reproducibility (relative standard deviation = 1.58%) and stability (relative standard deviation = 6.11%), showing a great application potential.
