Nanocrystalline BaTiO₃ particles, exhibiting quasi-spherical morphology with average diameters evolving from approximately 7 to 9 nm depending on reaction time, were successfully prepared via a room-temperature chemical synthesis route. Comprehensive characterization using techniques such as XRD, SAED, TEM, FTIR, and UV–Vis spectroscopy confirmed the formation of a polycrystalline perovskite structure and elucidated the material's morphological and optical properties. The synthesized BaTiO₃ NPs displayed stable, intrinsic fluorescence, optimally emitting at 467.42 nm upon excitation at ∼402.33 nm in a neutral pH environment (pH 7). This fluorescence was observed to be effectively quenched by multiple analytes, including glucose and paracetamol, establishing a basis for the development of a sensor. Quantitative analysis revealed analyte-dependent quenching efficiencies, with Stern-Volmer studies indicating glucose as the most potent quencher among those kinetically analyzed. The system demonstrated sensitive detection capabilities, achieving low parts-per-million (ppm) limits of detection (LOD) for both glucose (∼1.19 ppm) and paracetamol (∼1.04 ppm). Notably, the linear dynamic response range varied significantly, extending up to ∼1.8 ppm for glucose but reaching at least 3.6 ppm for paracetamol. The demonstrated fluorescence stability, coupled with sensitive and analyte-dependent quenching responses, highlights the potential of these BaTiO₃ nanoparticles as a versatile and robust material for developing future fluorimetric sensors.</dc:description><dc:publisher>Elsevier Inc.</dc:publisher><dc:date>2026</dc:date><dc:type>Article</dc:type><dc:identifier>https://rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/r/kostu/10587</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>https://doi.org/10.1016/j.microc.2025.116566</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>0026-265X</dc:identifier><dc:language>en</dc:language><dc:relation>Microchemical Journal</dc:relation><dc:rights>info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccess</dc:rights><dc:type>info:eu-repo/semantics/article</dc:type><dc:identifier>https://kostu-rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/tr/items/kostu/10587</dc:identifier></oai_dc:dc></metadata></record></GetRecord></OAI-PMH>
