Due to its toxic and harmful characteristics, it is crucial to develop high-performance gas sensors for detecting TEA rapidly and precisely. This study focuses on enhancing the gas sensing performance of In<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> by partially replacing In<sup>3+</sup> with Al<sup>3+</sup>. The result proved that the introduction of Al<sup>3+</sup> into In<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> can generate a hollow structure to promote the diffusion of the gas, alter the valence band structure to facilitate the oxidation of TEA, and result in more oxygen vacancies to promote the formation of charge carriers. The combination of these factors leads to the enhanced gas-sensing performance of In<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>. The TEA response value of the 5 mol% Al-In<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> reached 2.7 times that of pure In<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> at a relatively low working temperature of 120°C, and the response and recovery time were shortened from 26 s and 147 s to 18 s and 138 s. Moreover, the response values were almost unchanged at high humidity (25°C, 80 % RH) and after 30 days of continuous testing at 120°C. The theoretical detection limit was 31 ppb.

Herein, a colorimetric and fluorometric dual-mode biosensor was first constructed for detecting BLG based on the G-quadruplex/hemin DNAzyme and orange-emitting carbon dots (O-CDs). The BLG aptamer was employed to generate G-quadruplex/hemin DNAzyme, which exhibits peroxidase-like (POD-like) activity and serves as a specific recognition probe. The DNAzyme efficiently catalyzes the conversion of 3,3′,5,5′-Tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) into its blue oxidation product (oxTMB) and simultaneously quenches the fluorescence of O-CDs through the internal filter effect (IFE). Upon the presence of BLG, the aptamer specifically binds to BLG, thereby destroying the structure of the DNAzyme. Consequently, the POD-like activity of the DNAzyme is decreased, leading to an inhibition of oxTMB production and a restoration of the fluorescence of O-CDs. The BLG can be accurately measured by observing the changes in the colorimetric signal of oxTMB at 370 nm and the fluorescence signal of O-CDs at 580 nm.
