Abstract

Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibers doped with varying concentrations of perovskite praseodymium ferrite (PrFeO3) nanoparticles synthesized by calcination were successfully manufactured using a simple electrospinning process. The nanofibers were coated with layers of polyaniline-titanium dioxide (PANi-TiO2) combination using an air brush. The structure, morphology, and electrical characteristics of the nanoparticles and nanofibers were analyzed using SEM, FT-IR, and a multimeter. The results indicated that the produced nanofibers exhibited a strong in vitro interaction and selectivity against acetone gas, a biomarker of diabetes. These findings suggest that PrFeO3-doped nanofibers hold promise as potential candidates for acetone gas sensors in non-invasive diabetes monitoring.
