CoO Nanostructured Sensor for Electrochemical Detection of HO as a Stress Biomarker in Barley: FeO Nanoparticles-Mediated Enhancement of Salt Stress Tolerance.

This research investigates the enhancement of barley's resistance to salt stress by integrating nanoparticles and employing a nanostructured CoO sensor for the electrochemical detection of hydrogen peroxide (HO), a crucial indicator of oxidative stress. The novel sensor, featuring petal-shaped CoO nanostructures, exhibits remarkable precision and sensitivity to HO in buffer solution, showcasing notable efficacy in complex analytes like plant juice. The research establishes that the introduction of FeO nanoparticles significantly improves barley's ability to withstand salt stress, leading to a reduction in detected HO concentrations, alongside positive impacts on morphological parameters and photosynthesis rates.

A non-enzymatic electrochemical hydrogen peroxide sensor based on copper oxide nanostructures.

This article describes the synthesis of nanostructured copper oxide on copper wires and its application for the detection of hydrogen peroxide. Copper oxide petal nanostructures were obtained by a one-step hydrothermal oxidation method. The resulting coating is uniform and dense and shows good adhesion to the wire surface.

ZnO-nanostructure-based electrochemical sensor: Effect of nanostructure morphology on the sensing of heavy metal ions.

ZnO nanostructures are promising candidates for use in sensors, especially in electrochemical sensors and biosensors, due to their unique physical and chemical properties, as well as sensitivity and selectivity to several types of contamination, including heavy metal ions. In this work, using the hydrothermal method, nanostructures of ZnO were synthesized in four different morphologies: nanorods, nanoneedles, nanotubes and nanoplates. To determine the peculiarities of adsorption for each morphology, a series of electrochemical measurements were carried out using these nanostructured ZnO coatings on the working electrodes, using aqueous solutions of Pb(NO) and Cd(NO) as analytes with different concentrations.
