Ar eliable and sensitived etection of biogenic amines (BAs) is essential to ensure food safetya nd maintain public health.I nt his study,t wo naphthyl end-cappedt erthiophene derivatives, namely,5 -(naphthalen-1-yl)-2,2':5',2''terthiophene (NA-3T)a nd 5,5''-di(naphthalen-1-yl)-2,2':5',2''terthiophene (NA-3T-NA), were employed to developc hemiresistive sensorsf or detecting gaseous BAs. In contrast to NA-3T,t he NA-3T-NA-based sensors howedah ighers ensitivity for trimethylamine (TMA)w ith an experimental detection limit lower than 22 ppm, and for aromatic BAs, includ-ing dopamine, histamine, tryptamine, and tyramine. Additionally,t he recovery time for TMA wasf ound to be shorter than 23 s. In addition, both sensors were successfully used for an in situ evaluationo fm eat freshness by monitoring the concentration of relevant volatile BAs. The difference in the sensing performances of the two chemiresistive sensors was tentatively ascribed to different packing structures of the derivatives and the adlayer structures of the films developed with the compounds.Supporting information and the ORCID identification number(s) for the author(s) of this article can be found under: https://doi.
