Glyphosate is the most frequently used herbicide worldwide, its hazard potential is unclear and nowadays a threshold limit value has not yet been determined. We used eight chemoresistive gas sensors based on semiconducting nanopowders for the identification of N-(phosphonomethyl) glycine in air. The sensors were tested at their proper working temperature in presence of volatile glyphosate at concentrations within the range of 6 ppb–1 ppm, i.e., a plausible interval of interest for its monitoring. The sensing material that best performed was a solid solution of Tungsten oxide and Tin oxide (WS30). This study opens up to design portable devices suitable for monitoring glyphosate concentrations at which workers and people are exposed.

Noble metal additives are widely used to improve the performance of metal oxide gas sensors, most prominently with palladium on tin oxide. Here, we photodeposit different quantities of Pd (0–3 mol%) onto nanostructured SnO2 and determine their effect on sensing acetone, a critical tracer of lipolysis by breath analysis. We focus on understanding the effect of operating temperature on acetone sensing performance (sensitivity and response/recovery times) and its relationship to catalytic oxidation of acetone through a packed bed of such Pd-loaded SnO2. The addition of Pd can either boost or deteriorate the sensing performance, depending on its loading and operating temperature. The sensor performance is optimal at Pd loadings of less than 0.2 mol% and operating temperatures of 200–262.5 °C, where acetone conversion is around 50%.
