Table 3.

Summary of the literature review of selected PhC and metal-oxide based sensors for acetone detection. The columns, from left to right, indicate the sensor’s material, the optimal operation temperature, the quantity of acetone (concentration) used for the test, the limit of detection (LOD), and the bibliographic reference. Adapted from [62].
