Revolutionizing Ethylene Detection: A New Sensor for Post-Harvest Monitoring
Introduction to Ethylene Sensors In recent years, agricultural monitoring has made great advancements with the latest developments in the ethylene sensors. They are playing a crucial role in tracing the levels of ethylene, a plant hormone affecting ripening and senescence. A new sensor has recently been fabricated to show high-performance ability due to its unique feature of self-heating function. This highly innovative ethylene sensor is demonstrated with an ultra-low limit of detection, 1.654 ppb. It, therefore, serves as an important instrument for agricultural purposes, mainly for post-harvest management applications. With this detection capability of very low levels of ethylene, precise monitoring ensures crops such as cut chrysanthemums remain fresh and fresh while being stored or transported.
