Nanomaterials have versatile properties owing to their high surface-to-volume ratio and can thus be used in a variety of applications. This work focused on applying a facile hydrothermal strategy to prepare praseodymium vanadate nanoparticles due to the importance of nanoparticles in today's society and the fact that their synthesis might be a challenging endeavor. The structural and morphological characterizations were carried out to confirm the influence of the optimizations on the reaction's outcomes, which revealed praseodymium vanadate (PrVO) with a tetragonal crystal system. In this regard, the proposed development of electrochemical sensors based on the PrVO nanocatalyst for the real-time detection of arsenic drug roxarsone (RXS) is a primary concern. The detection was measured by amperometric (-) signals where PrVO/SPCE, as a new electrochemical sensing medium for RXS detection, increased the sensitivity of the sensor to about ∼2.5 folds compared to the previously reported ones. In the concentration range of 0.001-551.78 μM, the suggested PrVO/SPCE sensor has a high sensitivity for RXS, with a detection limit of 0.4 nM. Furthermore, the impact of several selected potential interferences, operational stability (2000 s), and reproducibility measurements have no discernible effect on RXS sensing, making it the ideal sensing device feasible for technical analysis. The real-time analysis reveals the excellent efficiency and reliability of the prosed sensor toward RXS detection with favorable recovery ranges between ±97.00-99.66% for chicken, egg, water, and urine samples.

Warm red-emitting praseodymium-doped LiSrVO phosphors were synthesized via solid-state reaction. The phase formation was verified using an X-ray diffraction study and the morphology was investigated using a scanning electron microscope study. The LiSrVO :Pr phosphors emitted red light when exposed to ultraviolet light, indicating their possibility for use in warm white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs).

Praseodymium (Pr) ion and the transition metal vanadium (V) ion with d electronic configuration can form an intervalence charge transfer (IVCT) band, which can function both as a compensatory channel for its red emission and as a quenching channel, thus affecting the luminescence thermal stability of the phosphors. Research studies reveal that the emission of Pr in the YVO matrix can be quenched by the IVCT mechanism, thereby limiting the application of phosphors. As such, the present contribution is based on the solid solution replacement strategy to inhibit the constitutent of the IVCT quenching channel and thus improve thermal stability.

Flavonoids or phenolic compounds are part of the daily intake of every human being. Though they are positive traders for metabolism, excessive intakes bring about detrimental impacts on human health. Herein, the anti-cancer capacitive nature quercetin (Qc) was electrochemically detected through the rare earth metal-based sphere like praseodymium vanadate (PrVO) entrapped graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN) as electrode modifiers.

Physiological storage disorders are caused by ineffective post-harvest handling of horticultural crops, particularly fruits. To address these post-harvest concerns, diphenylamine (DPAH) is widely used as a preservative to prevent fruit degradation and surface scald during storage around the world. Humans are negatively affected by the use of high concentrations of DPAH because of the various health complications related to its exposure.
