Tian T, Song D, Zhang L, Huang H, Li Y. Facile and selective recognition of sulfonylurea pesticides based on the multienzyme-like activities enhancement of nanozymes combining sensor array. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 469:133847. [PMID: 38422731 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.133847] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2023] [Revised: 02/16/2024] [Accepted: 02/19/2024] [Indexed: 03/02/2024]
Abstract
Traditional identification methods based on cholinesterase inhibition are limited to recognizing organic phosphorus and carbamate esters, and their response to sulfonylurea pesticides is weak. Residual sulfonylurea pesticides can pose a threat to human health. So, it is very important to develop an effective, rapid and portable method for sulfonylurea pesticides detection. Herein, we first found that sulfonylurea pesticides have activity-enhancing effects on copper-based nanozymes, and then combined them with the array technology to construct a six-channel sensing array method for selectively identifying sulfonylurea pesticides and detecting total concentration of sulfonylurea pesticides (the limit of detection was 0.03 µg/mL). This method has good selectivity towards sulfonylurea pesticides. In addition, a smartphone-based colorimetric paper sensor analysis method was developed to achieve the on-site detection of the total concentration of sulfonylurea pesticides. And this array can also be used for individual differentiation (1-100 µg/mL). Our work not only investigates the specific responses of copper-based nanozymes to sulfonylurea pesticides, but also develops a simple method that contributes to directly detect sulfonylurea pesticides at the source of pollution, providing insights for further research on sulfonylurea pesticides detection and filling the gap in pesticide residue studies.

Abstract
Mesotrione, which is a kind of herbicide to control broad-leaved weeds, has been increasingly used due to its excellent selectivity, rapid process and low toxicity. However, the excessive application of mesotrione have led to widespread contamination. Herein, a turn-on competitive coordination-based fluorescent probe, 2-hydroxy-1-(9-purin)-methylidenehydrazinenaphthalene (HPM), has been successfully synthesized. HPM could effectively detect Al3+ in CH3OH/HEPES (1/9, v/v) with low limit of detection (LOD) being 0.2 µM via coordination. HPM also exhibited excellent imaging capabilities for Al3+ in living cells with low cytotoxicity. On the basis of the competitive coordination of HPM with Al3+, the [HPM-Al3+] complex could also serve as a potential fluorescence sensor for detecting mesotrione with the LOD of 0.2 µM. Furthermore, [HPM-Al3+] complex was applied for the detection of mesotrione in real samples and test paper. Finally, the mechanism of [HPM-Al3+] for sensing mesotrione was investigated deeply as well. This work designed a new convenient method for on-site detection of mesotrione without the large-scale equipment or complicated pre-treatment.

Abstract
A multifunctional single-atom nanozyme, denoted as 3D Ni,N-codoped porous carbon (Ni-NPC), was devised that exhibits remarkable adsorption capabilities and a repertoire of enzyme mimetic functions (oxidase- and peroxidase-like). These attributes stem from the distinctive mesoporous thin-shell structure and well-dispersed Ni sites. The efficient adsorption capacity of Ni-NPC was assessed with respect to three carbamate pesticides (CMPs): metolcarb, carbaryl, and isoprocarb. Moreover, a colorimetric detection method for CMP was established based on its robust peroxidase-like catalytic activity and sequential catalytic interactions with acetylcholinesterase. Furthermore, a portable colorimetric sensor based on a hydrogel sphere integrated with a smartphone platform was devised. This sensor enables rapid, on-site, and quantitative assessment of CMP, boasting an extraordinarily low detection limit of 1.5 ng mL-1. Notably, this sensor was successfully applied to the analysis of CMP levels in lake water and vegetable samples (pakchoi and rape), propelling the progress of real-time detection technologies in food and environment monitoring.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 452:131307. [PMID: 37023579 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2023.131307] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2023] [Revised: 03/20/2023] [Accepted: 03/25/2023] [Indexed: 05/03/2023]
Abstract
The removal of a class of toxic thiol-containing heterocyclic pollutants from complex water matrices has great environmental significance. In this study, a novel photoanode (Au/MIL100(Fe)/TiO2) with dual recognition functions was designed for selective group-targeting photoelectrocatalytic removal of thiol-containing heterocyclic pollutants from various aquatic systems. The average degradation and adsorption removal efficiency of 2-mercaptobenzimidazole, 2-mercaptobenzothiazole, and 2-mercaptobenzoxazole were still above 96.7% and 13.5% after selective treatment with Au/MIL100(Fe)/TiO2 even coexisting with 10-fold concentration of macromolecular interferents (sulfide lignin and natural organic matters) and the same concentration of micromolecular structural analogues. While they were below 71.6% and 3.9% after non-selective treatment with TiO2. Targets in the actual system were selectively removed to 0.9 µg L-1, which is 1/10 of that after non-selective treatment. FTIR, XPS and operando electrochemical infrared results proved that the highly specific recognition mechanism was mainly attributable to both the size screening of MIL100(Fe) toward targets and Au-S bond formed between -SH group of targets and Au of Au/MIL100(Fe)/TiO2. •OH are the reactive oxygen species. The degradation mechanism was further investigated via excitation-emission matrix fluorescence spectroscopy and LC-MS. This study provides new guidelines for the selective group-targeting removal of toxic pollutants with characteristic functional groups from complex water matrices.

Abstract
In this study, the SnO2/Nb2CTx MXene nanocomposite containing 0D/2D interfaces was prepared by situ growth strategy of one-step hydrothermal method. A SnO2/Nb2CTx MXene based acetylcholinesterase (AChE) biosensor was constructed for pesticide detection. Highly conductive Nb2CTx MXene, acting as substrate material, restrained the agglomeration of nanoparticles (NPs) and accelerated electron migration due to the confinement effect and well-known accordion-like layered structure. In addition, SnO2 anchored on both sides of the Nb2CTx MXene nanosheets effectively provided a large surface area, abundant surface groups and active sites, which preserved numbers of electrons at the interface of the heterojunction. The SnO2/Nb2CTx MXene hybrids with outstanding conductivity, good biocompatibility and structural stability were beneficial for AChE immobilization. Under the optimized conditions, as-fabricated electrochemical biosensor demonstrated superior performance with linear detection range of 5.1 × 10-14 - 5.1 × 10-7 M for chlorpyrifos, along with the limit of detection (LOD) down to 5.1 × 10-14 M (calculated for 10% inhibition). Furthermore, it is highly expected that this biosensor can be applied for the detection of other organophosphorus pesticides in the environment, providing an effective nanoplatform in biosensing field.

Abstract
Pesticides are a suitable tool for controlling plagues and disease vectors. However, their inappropriate use allows for contamination of the environment, soil, water, and foods. Carbamates and dithiocarbamates pesticides present accumulative effects in the human body resulting in hormonal, neurological and reproductive disorders, and some are still suspected or proven to give carcinogenic or mutagenic effects. This review provides a current electroanalytical approach in the carbamates and dithiocarbamates determination, showing the use of voltammetric techniques such as amperometry, cyclic and linear scan, differential pulse, and square wave voltammetry, indicating their advantages, disadvantages, and perspectives in electroanalytical detection of carbamates and dithiocarbamates in natural water and foods. Also are reported the different materials used in the preparation of working electrodes since their choice has an important impact on the success of the analytical applications, resulting in suitable sensitivity, selectivity, stability, and robustness.

Abstract
Pesticide usage has increased to fulfil agricultural demand. Pesticides such as organophosphorus pesticides (OPPs) are ubiquitous in world food production. Their widespread usage has unavoidable detrimental consequences for humans, wildlife, water, and soil environments. Hence, the development of more convenient and efficient pesticide residue (PR) detection methods is of paramount importance. Visual detecting approaches have acquired a lot of interest among different sensing systems due to inherent advantages in terms of simplicity, speed, sensitivity, and eco-friendliness. Furthermore, various detections have been proven to enable real-life PR surveillance in environment water. Fluorometric (FL), colourimetric (CL), and enzyme-inhibition (EI) techniques have emerged as viable options. These sensing technologies do not need complex operating processes or specialist equipment, and the simple colour change allows for visual monitoring of the sensing result. Visual sensing techniques for on-site detection of PR in water environments are discussed in this paper. This paper further reviews prior research on the integration of CL, FL, and EI-based techniques with nanoparticles (NPs), quantum dots (QDs), and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Smartphone detection technologies for PRs are also reviewed. Finally, conventional methods and nanoparticle (NPs) based strategies for the detection of PRs are compared.

Abstract
An analysis tool for isoprocarb has been successfully developed as a biosensor system based on enzymatic inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) by isoprocarb. A gold nanoparticles-polyaniline modified graphite pencil electrode (AuNPs-PANI-GPE) was utilized to detect the change of thiocholine in the presence of isoprocarb. This electrode was prepared by two cyclic voltammetry steps, including the electro-polymerization of aniline on a graphite pencil and the electro-deposition of gold nanoparticles on the polyaniline surface. Characterization performed by SEM-EDX indicates that 8-80 nm size of gold nanoparticles could be deposited on the surface of polyaniline-modified graphite pencil (PANI-GPE). Electrochemical characterization using cyclic voltammetry suggested that the active surface area of the prepared electrode was 0.17019 cm2, which was about 4 times higher than (PANI-GPE) and 13 times higher than the unmodified GPE. Furthermore, an oxidation peak of thiocholine could be observed at the modified GPE at a potential of + 0.675 V (vs. Ag/AgCl), formed by an enzymatic reaction of AChE in the presence of acetylthiocholine. This peak current was found to linearly increase with acetylthiocholine concentrations, while in the presence of isoprocarb in a constant concentration of AChE and acetylthiocholine the peak linearly decreases. At the optimum condition of 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution pH 7.4 containing 0.1 M KCl; 100 mU/ml AChE; and 1 mM acetylthiocholine chloride in an inhibition and contact time of 25 and 15 min, respectively, a linear calibration curve of isoprocarb in the concentration range of 0.05-1.0 μM could be provided. Estimated limits of detection and quantifications of 0.1615 nM and 0.5382 nM, respectively, with a sensitivity of 1.7771 μA/μM.mm2 could be achieved. Furthermore, an excellent stability for 8 times measurements was observed with an RSD of 4.87%, suggesting that the developed tool is promising for the real detection of isoprocarb.

Abstract
Pesticide and mycotoxin residues in food are concerning as they are harmful to human health. Traditional methods, such as high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for such detection lack sensitivity and operation convenience. Efficient, accurate detection approaches are needed. With the recent development of nanotechnology, electrochemical biosensors based on nanomaterials have shown solid ability to detect trace pesticides and mycotoxins quickly and accurately. In this review, English articles about electrochemical biosensors in the past 11 years (2011-2022) were collected from PubMed database, and various nanomaterials are discussed, including noble metal nanomaterials, magnetic metal nanoparticles, metal-organic frameworks, carbon nanotubes, as well as graphene and its derivatives. Three main roles of such nanomaterials in the detection process are summarized, including biomolecule immobilization, signal generation, and signal amplification. The detection targets involve two types of pesticides (organophosphorus and carbamate) and six types of mycotoxins (aflatoxin, deoxynivalenol, zearalenone, fumonisin, ochratoxin A, and patulin). Although significant achievements have been made in the evolution of electrochemical nano-biosensors, many challenges remain to be overcome.

Abstract
A new N,O-rich covalent organic framework (COFDHNDA-BTH) was synthesized by an amine-aldehyde condensation reaction between 2,6-dialdehyde-1,5-dihydroxynaphthalene (DHNDA) and 1,3,5-phenyltriformylhydrazine (BTH) for carbaryl detection. The free NH, OH, and C=O groups of COFDHNDA-BTH not only covalently couples with acetylcholinesterase (AChE) into the pores of COFDHNDA-BTH, but also greatly improves the catalytic activity of AChE in the constrained environment of COFDHNDA-BTH's pore. Under the catalysis of AChE, the acetylthiocholine (ATCl) was decomposed into positively charged thiocholine (TCl), which was captured on the COFDHNDA-BTH modified electrode. The positive charges of TCl can attract anionic probe [Fe(CN)6]3-/4- on the COFDHNDA-BTH-modified electrode to show a good oxidation peak at 0.25 V (versus a saturated calomel electrode). The carbaryl detection can inhibit the activity of AChE, resulting in the decrease in the oxidation peak. Therefore, a turn-off electrochemical carbaryl biosensor based on a flexible carbon paper electrode loaded with COFDHNDA-BTH and AChE was constructed using the oxidation peak of an anionic probe [Fe(CN)6]3-/4- as the detection signal. The detection limit was 0.16 μM (S/N = 3), and the linear range was 0.48~35.0 μM. The sensor has good selectivity, repeatability, and stability, and has a good application prospect in pesticide detection.

The growing population and global food demands have encouraged the use of pesticides to increase agricultural yields; however, the irrational use of pesticides threatens human health and the environment. Carbaryl (CRBL) is the most widespread insecticide and severely affects soil, water systems, and human health. Thus, it is crucial to monitor CRBL residues in the environment and vegetable samples. This study reports the rapid and sensitive electrochemical detection of CRBL based on a pyrochlore-type lanthanum tin oxide (LSO) nanoparticles (NPs)-modified screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE). A low-temperature hydrothermal method was employed to prepare the LSO NPs. The structural properties of the LSO NPs were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Raman, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses. The LSO NPs/SPCE demonstrated good electroanalytical performance for CRBL detection, with a low detection limit of 0.4 nM (0.08 µg/L) and a sensitivity of 1.05 µA/(µM cm2). Furthermore, the LSO NPs/SPCE exhibited high selectivity among highly interfering carbamate and organophosphorus pesticides, which share similar mechanisms of action. Additionally, the LSO NPs/SPCE sensor achieved > 90% recovery for the detection of CRBL in soil, water, and vegetable samples, thus verifying its suitability for the rapid detection of CRBL.

Abstract
Metal-containing pesticides are used in many areas for purposes such as harvest efficiency and keeping pests away from the vegetable environment. Metal-containing pesticides are in the form of dithiocarbamate complexes and are named differently according to the type of metal they contain and are used for different purposes. Since the presence of these pesticides even at residue level threatens human and environmental health, their determination at trace level is important. In this review, studies on the determination of metal-containing dithiocarbamate pesticides in different matrices are discussed. This review on the analysis of dithiocarbamate pesticides with different techniques will shed light on the studies to be carried out for the determination of these pesticides one by one in different matrices.

Recent Advances in Nanomaterial-Based Biosensors for Pesticide Detection in Foods. BIOSENSORS 2022; 12:bios12080572. [PMID: 36004968 PMCID: PMC9405907 DOI: 10.3390/bios12080572] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2022] [Revised: 07/08/2022] [Accepted: 07/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Biosensors are a simple, low-cost, and reliable way to detect pesticides in food matrices to ensure consumer food safety. This systematic review lists which nanomaterials, biorecognition materials, transduction methods, pesticides, and foods have recently been studied with biosensors associated with analytical performance. A systematic search was performed in the Scopus (n = 388), Web of Science (n = 790), and Science Direct (n = 181) databases over the period 2016–2021. After checking the eligibility criteria, 57 articles were considered in this study. The most common use of nanomaterials (NMs) in these selected studies is noble metals in isolation, such as gold and silver, with 8.47% and 6.68%, respectively, followed by carbon-based NMs, with 20.34%, and nanohybrids, with 47.45%, which combine two or more NMs, uniting unique properties of each material involved, especially the noble metals. Regarding the types of transducers, the most used were electrochemical, fluorescent, and colorimetric, representing 71.18%, 13.55%, and 8.47%, respectively. The sensitivity of the biosensor is directly connected to the choice of NM and transducer. All biosensors developed in the selected investigations had a limit of detection (LODs) lower than the Codex Alimentarius maximum residue limit and were efficient in detecting pesticides in food. The pesticides malathion, chlorpyrifos, and paraoxon have received the greatest attention for their effects on various food matrices, primarily fruits, vegetables, and their derivatives. Finally, we discuss studies that used biosensor detection systems devices and those that could detect multi-residues in the field as a low-cost and rapid technique, particularly in areas with limited resources.

Abstract
Electrode materials play a central role in assembling biosensors. In this work, a titanium dioxide nanoparticle loaded graphitized carbon nanofiber (TiO2/GNF) composite is prepared for the sensitive detection of organophosphorus pesticide residues (OPs). The TiO2/GNF composite with superior conductivity, catalytic activity and biocompatibility offers an extremely hydrophilic surface for the effective immobilization of acetylcholinesterase (AChE). Furthermore, the Ti atoms of TiO2/GNFs could coordinate with AChE to improve its stability, and TiO2 has a strong adsorption on OPs. The developed AChE/TiO2/GNFs/GCE biosensor showed a high affinity to acetylthiocholine chloride (ATCh) and could catalyze the hydrolysis of ATCh with an apparent Michaelis-Menten constant (Km) of 50 μM. The constructed AChE/TiO2/GNFs/GCE biosensor exhibits a wide detection linear range (1.0 × 10-13 M to 1.0 × 10-8 M) with a low detection limit (3.3 fM) for paraoxon determination (a model of OPs). In addition, the developed biosensor possesses remarkable anti-interference, acceptable reproducibility and good long-term stability, and is successfully used for the determination of OPs in lake water, providing a new strategy for the analysis of OPs in ecological environments.

Abstract
In this study, an electrochemiluminescence detection system for the sensitive detection of carbaryl was constructed based on the dual identification of Eu@MOF253, which has a recognition effect on carbaryl, and the electrochemiluminescence system of Ru(bpy)32+/S2O82-, which can react with carbaryl in a redox reaction. This method not only overcame the weakness of the electrochemiluminescence instability of the Ru(bpy)32+/S2O82- system but also changed the sensitivity of the sensing detection system to the target by adjusting the concentration of Ru(bpy)32+ and then proposed a detection strategy with a controllable detection range. After analyzing the electrochemiluminescence signal change mechanism of this system and optimizing the detection conditions, it was concluded that the strategy has good linear detection of carbaryl in the range of 1-1000 and 0.02-0.3 μg L-1, and the detection limits were 0.058 and 0.014 μg L-1. Finally, the strategy was also successfully applied to the detection of actual samples.

One-dimensional bimetallic PdRh alloy mesoporous nanotubes constructed for ultra-sensitive detection of carbamate pesticide. Anal Biochem 2022; 652:114726.

Abstract
Bimetallic nanomaterials with various dimensions have been successfully explored in electrochemical biosensor to detect the carbamate pesticide. One-dimensional bimetallic nanomaterials with mesoporous, which possess bigger electrochemical active area, more catalytic active sites and faster electron transmission efficiency, may have excellent performance in electrochemical biosensor, but have been rarely reported. In order to confirm this hypothesis, one-dimensional PdRh alloy mesoporous nanotubes were prepared and applied as a platform for carbamate pesticide electrochemical detection. Upon optimum conditions, the constructed AChE sensor showed an ultrahigh sensitivity (0.279 μA/nM), a wide linear range (9.44 × 10-8 - 0.944 mg/L) and a low detection limit (9.44 × 10-8 mg/L) for carbaryl. And the biosensor exhibited outstanding anti-interference ability, precision and stability. Moreover, the actual sample detection of the biosensor has been demonstrated with a satisfactory recovery (94.01%-102.80%). The remarkable property may attribute to the integrated advantages of one-dimensional mesoporous structure and bimetallic alloy.

Abstract
Surfactant stabilized Gold (Au) nanomaterials (NMs) have been documented extensively in recent years for numerous sensing applications in the academic literature. Despite the crucial role these surfactants play in the sensing applications, the comprehensive reviews that highlights the fundamentals associated with these assemblies and impact of these surfactants on the properties and sensing mechanisms are still quite scare. This review is an attempt in organizing the vast literature associated with this domain by providing critical insights into the fundamentals, preparation methodologies and sensing mechanisms of these surfactant stabilized Au NMs. For the simplification, the surfactants are divided into the typical and advanced surfactants and the Au NMs are classified into Au nanoparticles (NPs) and Au nanoclusters (NCs) depending upon the complexity in structure and size of the NMs respectively. The preparative methodologies are also elaborated for enhancing the understanding of the readers regarding such assemblies. The case studies regarding surfactant stabilized Au NMs were further divided into colorimetric sensors, surface plasmonic resonance (SPR) based sensors, luminescence-based sensors, and electrochemical/electrical sensors depending upon the property utilized by the sensor for the sensing of an analyte. Future perspectives are also discussed in detail for the researchers looking for further progress in that particular research domain.

Evaluation of Piperine as Natural Coformer for Eutectics Preparation of Drugs Used in the Treatment of Cardiovascular Diseases. AAPS PharmSciTech 2022; 23:127.

Abstract
Piperine (PIP) was evaluated as a natural coformer in the preparation of multicomponent organic materials for enhancing solubility and dissolution rate of the poorly water-soluble drugs: curcumin (CUR), lovastatin (LOV), and irbesartan (IBS). A screening based on liquid assisted grinding technique was performed using 1:1 drug-PIP molar ratio mixtures, followed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) analyses. Three eutectic mixtures (EMs) composed of CUR-PIP, LOV-PIP, and IBS-PIP were obtained. Therefore, binary phase and Tamman's diagrams were constructed for each system to obtain the exact eutectic composition, which was 0.41:0.59, 0.29:0.71, and 0.31:0.69 for CUR-PIP, LOV-PIP, and IBS-PIP, respectively. Further, bulk materials of each system were prepared to characterize them through DSC, PXRD fully, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and solution-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. In addition, the contact angle, solubility, and dissolution rate of each system were evaluated. The preserved characteristic in the PXRD patterns and FT-IR spectra of the bulk material of each system confirmed the formation of EM mixture without molecular interaction in solid-state. The formation of EM resulted in improved aqueous solubility and dissolution rate associated with the increased wettability observed by the decrease in contact angle. In addition, solution NMR analyses of CUR-PIP, LOV-PIP, and IBS-PIP suggested no significant intermolecular interactions in solution between the components of the EM. Hence, this study concludes that PIP could be an effective coformer to improve the solubility and dissolution rate of CUR, LOV, and IBS.

Abstract
Nano-enabled agriculture is now receiving increasing attentions. Among the used nanomaterials, carbon-based nanomaterials are good candidates for sustainable agriculture. Previous review papers about the role of carbon-based nanomaterials in agriculture are either focused on one type of carbon-based nanomaterial or lack systematic discussion of the potential wide applications in agriculture. In this review, different types of carbon-based nanomaterials and their applications in light converters, nanosensors, and delivery tools in agriculture are summarized. Possible knowledge gaps are discussed. Overall, this review helps to better understand the role and the potential of carbon-based nanomaterials for nano-enabled agriculture.

Abstract
This review critically summarizes the knowledge of imprinted polymer-based electrochemical sensors for the detection of pesticides, metal ions and waterborne pathogenic bacteria, focusing on the last five years. MIP-based electrochemical sensors exhibit low limits of detection (LOD), high selectivity, high sensitivity and low cost. We put the emphasis on the design of imprinted polymers and their composites and coatings by radical polymerization, oxidative polymerization of conjugated monomers or sol-gel chemistry. Whilst most imprinted polymers are used in conjunction with differential pulse or square wave voltammetry for sensing organics and metal ions, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) appears as the chief technique for detecting bacteria or their corresponding proteins. Interestingly, bacteria could also be probed via their quorum sensing signaling molecules or flagella proteins. If much has been developed in the past decade with glassy carbon or gold electrodes, it is clear that carbon paste electrodes of imprinted polymers are more and more investigated due to their versatility. Shortlisted case studies were critically reviewed and discussed; clearly, a plethora of tricky strategies of designing selective electrochemical sensors are offered to "Imprinters". We anticipate that this review will be of interest to experts and newcomers in the field who are paying time and effort combining electrochemical sensors with MIP technology.

Abstract
Carbamate pesticides (CPs) are the most used pesticides in agricultural production and pest control. In this study, carbofuran, isoprocarb and carbaryl were employed as models, and a general hapten strategy based on carbamate moiety recognition was proposed. Molecular modeling of the three-dimensional (3D) structure and surface electrostatic potential of the CPs indicated that the amide group formed by conjugation significantly influenced recognition by antibodies. The proposed strategy was used to obtain three sensitive and specific monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) with IC50 values of 1.4 ng/mL, 8.4 ng/mL and 13.8 ng/mL for carbofuran, isoprocarb and carbaryl, respectively. Negligible cross-reactivity (%) with analogs was observed, except for fenobucarb (84.6%) for isoprocarb. The obtained antibodies were used to develop an immunochromatographic assay (ICA) to simultaneously and quantitatively detect the three CPs. A strip reader was used to determine the limits of quantitation (LOQs) as 0.05 ng/mL (carbofuran), 31.3 ng/mL (isoprocarb) and 31.3 ng/mL (carbaryl). The recoveries of cucumber and Chinese cabbage samples ranged from 76% to 111%, with CVs from 1.3% to 10.6%, indicating good potential for the rapid simultaneous detection of multiple pesticide residues in a large batch of samples.

Abstract
According to a simple guest-replacement fluorescence turn-on mechanism, we constructed a fluorescent probe system based on cucurbit[10]uril (Q[10]) and protonated acridine (AD) to detect the pesticide dodine (DD). Formation of a homoternary inclusion complex AD2@Q[10] in both aqueous solution and solid state was studied by means of 1H NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. Although AD can emit strong fluorescence in aqueous solution, the homoternary inclusion complex AD2@Q[10] does not exhibit any fluorescence. Upon the addition of the pesticide DD into the aqueous solution of AD2@Q[10], the AD molecules in the Q[10] cavity are displaced by the pesticide DD, and strong fluorescence recovers. The fluorescent probe system based on Q[10] and AD provided a wide determination of DD from 0 to 4.0 × 10-5 mol·L-1 with a low limit of detection of 1.827 × 10-6 mol·L-1. The guest-replacement fluorescence turn-on mechanism is also confirmed by 1H NMR spectroscopy. Further, the fluorescent probe can directly detect DD residues in real agricultural products, and obvious fluorescence signal was observed under UV irradiation.

Abstract
A transmission surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy (SEIRAS) substrate based on copper foam (CF) was developed for the rapid detection of dithiocarbamate (DTC) pesticides. The transmission SEIRAS substrate was prepared by immersing CF in a mixed solution of a precious metal solution and a polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) solution. Then CF could be in situ loaded with precious metal nanoparticles (MNPs) by PVP-modified displacement reaction in seconds. PVP could be helpful for the uniform distribution of MNPs. Experimental parameters were evaluated with 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid (MUA) as a probe molecule, including the concentration of the precious metal solution, the amount of PVP, and the reaction time. Taking CF loaded with gold nanoparticles (Au NPs-CF) as an example, the signal intensity of DTC pesticide (Ziram) could be enhanced by two orders of magnitude, and the R2 of the calibration curve was 0.999. In addition, the Pt NPs-CF substrate was applied to the rapid detection of other DTC pesticides (Ferbam). In summary, we have developed a new method to prepare the transmission SEIRAS substrate and apply it to the rapid detection of DTC pesticides in liquid.

Abstract
Pesticides are among the most important contaminants in food, leading to important global health problems. While conventional techniques such as high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and mass spectrometry (MS) have traditionally been utilized for the detection of such food contaminants, they are relatively expensive, time-consuming and labor intensive, limiting their use for point-of-care (POC) applications. Electrochemical (bio)sensors are emerging devices meeting such expectations, since they represent reliable, simple, cheap, portable, selective and easy to use analytical tools that can be used outside the laboratories by non-specialized personnel. Screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) stand out from the variety of transducers used in electrochemical (bio)sensing because of their small size, high integration, low cost and ability to measure in few microliters of sample. In this context, in this review article, we summarize and discuss about the use of SPEs as analytical tools in the development of (bio)sensors for pesticides of interest for food control. Finally, aspects related to the analytical performance of the developed (bio)sensors together with prospects for future improvements are discussed.

Abstract
Pesticides, which can accumulate in soil, water, animals and plants, are essential to world agriculture. Developing a method that can efficiently and quickly detect toxic pesticides is of importance but still a challenge. Here, two luminescent dye@MOFs systems, Rho B@1 and Rho 6G@1, were successfully fabricated based on [Cd2(tib)(btb)(H2O)2]∙NO3∙2DMF (1). This work is the first use of two fluorescent sensors as dual-emitting platforms for detecting pesticides. As a result, the fluorescence intensity ratios between the two main emissions can be tuned using the concentrations of the dye solutions, and the emissions are at 370 nm/606 nm and 370 nm/590 nm for Rho B@1 and Rho 6G@1, respectively. The intensities of the two main emissions of Rho B@1 and Rho 6G@1 are also influenced by the chemical structures of pesticides with electron-withdrawing groups. It is important that high sensitivity and selectivity for sensing pesticides must have good recyclability. Rho B@1 and Rho 6G@1 can still remain stable regarding the detection of nitenpyram even after 5 cycles, with LODs of 0.48 nM for Rho B@1 and 3 nM for Rho 6G@1, which indicate that these two luminescent dye@MOFs systems are excellent fluorescence probe candidates for the selective detection of pesticides.

Abstract
Microfluidic and lab-on-a-chip systems have become increasingly important tools across many research fields in recent years. As a result of their small size and precise flow control, as well as their ability to enable in situ process visualization, microfluidic systems are increasingly finding applications in environmental science and engineering. Broadly speaking, their main present applications within these fields include use as sensors for water contaminant analysis (e.g., heavy metals and organic pollutants), as tools for microorganism detection (e.g., virus and bacteria), and as platforms for the investigation of environment-related problems (e.g., bacteria electron transfer and biofilm formation). This chapter aims to review the applications of microfluidics in environmental science and engineering - with a particular focus on the foregoing topics. The advantages and limitations of microfluidics when compared to traditional methods are also surveyed, and several perspectives on the future of research and development into microfluidics for environmental applications are offered.

Abstract
In recent years, there has been an increase in pesticide use to improve crop production due to the growth of agricultural activities. Consequently, various pesticides have been present in the environment for an extended period of time. This review presents a general description of recent advances in the development of methods for the quantification of pesticides used in agricultural activities. Current advances focus on improving sensitivity and selectivity through the use of nanomaterials in both sensor assemblies and new biosensors. In this study, we summarize the electrochemical, optical, nano-colorimetric, piezoelectric, chemo-luminescent and fluorescent techniques related to the determination of agricultural pesticides. A brief description of each method and its applications, detection limit, purpose—which is to efficiently determine pesticides—cost and precision are considered. The main crops that are assessed in this study are bananas, although other fruits and vegetables contaminated with pesticides are also mentioned. While many studies have assessed biosensors for the determination of pesticides, the research in this area needs to be expanded to allow for a balance between agricultural activities and environmental protection.

We explain the nature of calix[n]arenes and as their recognized properties are used to detect compounds of toxicological interest, mainly the most important pesticide families such as organophosphorated, organochlorine compounds, pyrethroid insecticides, carbamate fungicides, and herbicides, using different techniques. In addition, we show the role of the macrocycle and its interactions, and the advantage of using this type of compound for improving conventional techniques, where the phenomenon of recognition is very important, such as chromatography, solid-phased extraction, and the development of specific sensors, among others and Even we also show the use of this macrocycle for detoxication procedures in vivo. In this way, we display as the multiple possibilities of functionalization of the calix[n]arenes makes these versatile molecules in the phenomena of specific recognition. Finally, This review highlights the main analytical methods reported in the literature for determination of plaguicides by host-guest interaction with calixarenes. In this way, among the available analytical tools, chromatographic, and electrochemical-based methods are the most used techniques for the detection and to quantify plaguicides using calixarenes.

Ultrasensitive Determination of Malathion Using Acetylcholinesterase Immobilized on Chitosan-Functionalized Magnetic Iron Nanoparticles. BIOSENSORS-BASEL 2018; 8:bios8010016. [PMID: 29438301 PMCID: PMC5872064 DOI: 10.3390/bios8010016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 38] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2018] [Revised: 02/07/2018] [Accepted: 02/07/2018] [Indexed: 01/19/2023]
Abstract
A renewable, disposable, low cost, and sensitive sensor for the detection of organophosphorus pesticides was constructed by immobilizing the acetylcholinesterase enzyme (AChE), via glutaraldehyde, on magnetic iron nanoparticles (Fe3O4) previously synthesized and functionalized with chitosan (CS). The sensor was denoted AChE/CS/Fe3O4. The magnetic nanoparticles were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Acetylthiocholine (ATCh) was incubated with AChE/CS/Fe3O4 and attached to a screen-printed electrode using a magnet. The oxidation of thiocholine (from ATCh hydrolysis) was monitored at an applied potential of +0.5 V vs. Ag/AgCl(KClsat) in 0.1 mol L−1 phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.5) as the supporting electrolyte. A mixture of the pesticide malathion and ATCh was investigated using the same procedure, and the results were compared and expressed as inhibition percentages. For determination of malathion, the proposed sensor presented a linear response in the range from 0.5 to 20 nmol L−1 (R = 0.9942). The limits of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) were 0.3 and 0.8 nmol L−1, respectively. Real samples were also investigated, with recovery values of 96.0% and 108.3% obtained for tomato and pond water samples, respectively. The proposed sensor is a feasible option for malathion detection, offering a linear response, good sensitivity, and a low detection limit.

Abstract
A new and simple approach for carbaryl determination in natural sample was proposed using Low Silica X (LSX) zeolite modified carbon paste electrode. LSX zeolite with a porous structure was incorporated into carbon paste electrode in the appropriate portion. The prepared electrode was then characterized using scanning electron microscopy, cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Various experimental parameters as the zeolite amounts, pH, accumulation time, and differential pulse voltammetric parameters were optimized. Under optimal conditions, a linear response was obtained in the range of 1-100 µM of carbaryl using differential pulse voltammetry with detection limit of 0.3 µM (S/N = 3). The sensors showed good selectivity, stability, and reproducibility and has been successfully applied for detection of carbaryl in tomato samples with good recoveries.

Abstract
A new near-infrared fluorescence off-on probe was developed and applied to fluorescence imaging of carboxylesterase in living HepG-2 cells and zebrafish pretreated with pesticides (carbamate, organophosphorus, and pyrethroid). The probe was readily prepared by connecting (4-acetoxybenzyl)oxy as a quenching and recognizing moiety to a stable hemicyanine skeleton that can be formed via the decomposition of IR-780. The fluorescence off-on response of the probe to carboxylesterase is based on the enzyme-catalyzed spontaneous hydrolysis of the carboxylic ester bond, followed by a further fragmentation of the phenylmethyl unit and thereby the fluorophore release. Compared with the only existing near-infrared carboxylesterase probe, the proposed probe exhibits superior analytical performance, such as near-infrared fluorescence emission over 700 nm as well as high selectivity and sensitivity, with a detection limit of 4.5 × 10-3 U/mL. More importantly, the probe is cell membrane permeable, and its applicability has been successfully demonstrated for monitoring carboxylesterase activity in living HepG-2 cells and zebrafish pretreated with pesticides, revealing that pesticides can effectively inhibit the activity of carboxylesterase. The superior properties of the probe make it of great potential use in indicating pesticide exposure.

Abstract
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme has been predominantly used for the detection of pesticides and metal ions. But, these sensors respond to pesticides as well as metal ions at certain concentration, which results in poor selectivity. Hence in this work, the amount of thiocholine produced during AChE inhibition has been estimated to detect the residual activity of AChE enzyme in-turn to enhance the efficiency of the biosensor. In this context, Pt/ZnO-CeO2/AChE/Chitosan based biosensor has been developed for sensitive voltammetric quantification of thiocholine in AChE. The sensor exhibited enhanced electron transfer rate, good conductivity and biocompatibility. Both the intrinsic and extrinsic parameters were simultaneously optimized using second order polynomial regression to get the best conditions for ATCh determination. Under optimized experimental conditions, the redox peak current was linear over the concentration range of 0.1-1.5 mM with detection and quantification limit of 0.05 and 0.15 μM respectively and the sensitivity of 1.47 μA mM-1.
