In modern therapeutics, various gases are used as driving sources for ventilators and nebulizers. Medical gases are used in veterinary medicine and the biological sciences, including treating respiratory problems, managing strokes, preserving biological samples, anesthesia, organ cryopreservation, for forensic examinations, and for driving medical equipment and tools. In veterinary biotechnology, bovine sperm is often cryogenically preserved using liquid nitrogen. Here we attempt to give a broad overview of the implications of several gases used in biological and veterinary science. In the next part of this article, we will focus on the meaning of gas sensors, their types and functions. Detecting specific gases and their concentrations has become important for monitoring the environment, ensuring public safety, addressing health concerns, controlling chemical processing, and using gas molecules in agriculture and medicine. Materials for gas sensing have a long history of development. With advances in nanoscience and technology, researchers have effectively developed a number of transition metal oxides that can be used as gas-sensitive materials. Here, we discuss various materials used as gas sensors. Finally, the research progress of gas sensitive materials in recent years is discussed. © Engineered Science Publisher LLC 2024.

This review is providing a comprehensive overview of essential genuine characterization techniques for nanomaterial and biomaterials exist in various forms. Nanoscience and nanotechnology are one of the trans scientific frontiers, multidisciplinary and environmentally sustainable research field. Today nanomaterials are widely employing in almost every branches of science and technology. As nanomaterials are invisible and unknown in size, shape, so it is enormously needy the advanced characterizations tools to visualize and analyze the materials at nanoscale. The characterization techniques are of paramount importance in the field of nanoscience and technology. This review is to summarize the present knowledge on the use, advances, advantages and weaknesses of a large number of experimental techniques that are available for the characterization of nanoparticles. Different characterization techniques are classified according to the concept or group of technique used, the information they can provide, or the materials that they are destined for. This review is more very much useful to beginner researcher and who are not aware with the advanced characterization techniques and data interpretation. © Engineered Science Publisher LLC 2024.

Nanomaterials and biomaterials are becoming increasingly important in current scientific and industrial communities. Nanomaterials are beyond the perception of the human eye. Thus, to determine the structure, morphology, and exact formation of materials on the nanoscale, an authentic technique is required. Recently, attempts have been made to determine the structure of materials at the nanoscale level. With the progress of time and advancements in scientific knowledge, the method of characterization has changed. Nanomaterial characterization techniques can be broadly classified into three main types: (1) spectroscopic, (2) microscopic, and (3) Scattering Techniques. Scattering techniques are very important and act as confirmatory techniques for determining the structure of materials at the nanoscale. Furthermore, most of the scattering is non-destructive, that is, the samples can be recovered after analysis. Considering the importance of the technique and its versatile utility, an attempt has been made to discuss various characterization techniques used for the analysis of materials at the nanoscale. We have discussed the working principles, applications, and limitations of various characterization techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), neutron scattering, dynamic light scattering (DLS), and electron microscopy. We have discussed each characterization technique in detail, highlighting the strength of the technique, its limitations, and recent developments in particular characterization with data analysis. Furthermore, this review examines the specific applications of scattering techniques in the characterization of nanomaterials, such as nanoparticles, nanocomposites, and nanostructured surfaces, and in the analysis of biomaterials, including proteins, nucleic acids, and lipid membranes. The role of scattering techniques in elucidating the structural properties, morphology, size distribution, and interactions of these materials has been thoroughly investigated. In the last section of this review, we discuss the future possibilities for further improvements and applications of various characterization techniques. The scientific community will obtain in detail information about characterization techniques through a single review paper. Scattering techniques find numerous applications in various sectors such as in structure determination, material characterization, particle size analysis, thin film analysis, protein structure determination, cell membrane studies, cancer research, drug formulation, quality control, fingerprints and DNA analysis, etc. © The Author(s) 2025.

Spectroscopy, the study of the interaction between electromagnetic radiation and matter, is a versatile and powerful analytical technique used in various scientific disciplines. This review provides a comprehensive overview of spectroscopy, covering its principles, instrumentation, techniques, applications, and recent advancements. Spectroscopy encompasses a wide range of methods, each offering unique insights into the structure, composition, dynamics, and properties of materials. At its core, spectroscopy relies on the measurement of the intensity and wavelength (or frequency) of electromagnetic radiation absorbed, emitted, or scattered by a sample. The interaction between light and matter can reveal valuable information about the chemical, physical, and electronic properties of substances, including molecular structure, electronic transitions, vibrational modes, and magnetic interactions. Thus, spectroscopy remains a cornerstone of scientific research and technological innovation, offering unparalleled capabilities for understanding the properties and behavior of matter across the electromagnetic spectrum. Continued advancements in spectroscopic instrumentation, techniques, and applications promise to further enhance our ability to explore and exploit the mysteries of the universe at the molecular and atomic levels. © 2025, Engineered Science Publisher.
