A system comprising cucurbit[8]uril (Q[8]) and a fluorescent molecule (E)-1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-4-(4-hydroxystyryl)pyridin-1-ium bromide (HPy) has been utilized to construct a fluorescent probe that is capable of detecting the pesticide tricyclazole (TC). A variety of techniques including 1 H NMR spectroscopy together with fluorescence experiments have been employed to investigate the host-guest properties of the Q[8]/HPy system in aqueous solution. Results indicate that the system forms the stable2:1 inclusion complex HPy 2 @Q[8], and that this inclusion complex imparts fluorescent quenching on HPy. The addition of a number of pesticides was found to have no obvious effect on the fluorescence, however on addition of tricycazole (TC), the fluorescence intensity underwent a dramatic enhancement. The linear relationship between the fluorescence intensity and the concentration of TC allowed for the facile detection of TC concentration in aqueous target solutions as well as in agricultural products. The detection limit was found to be 3.70 × 10 −8 mol L −1 .

Pesticide residues in farm products create human health hazards. Hence, sensors that detect their existence are advantageous to address this critical problem. In this research contribution, fin-like CdSeS nanoplatelets were synthesized from solution by adjusting the selenium-to-sulfur molar ratio. Structural and photophysical properties were characterized via XPS, XRD, UV absorption, and fluorescence emission. CdSeS nanoplatelets exhibit a regular fin-like structure when the molar ratio of selenium-to-sulfur is 1:1. Fluorescence emission from these nanoplatelets occurs at two distinct wavelengths, characteristic of quantum dots. CdSeS fin-like nanoplatelets generate red-shifted fluorescence to 530 nm, which is useful to detect the popular organophosphorus pesticide dimethoate effectively at concentrations that range from 10–5 to 10–7 mol/L. Upon increasing dimethoate concentrations in solution, fluorescence intensity of CdSeS nanoplatelets decreases. Hence, direct sensing of dimethoate is feasible. Another important significance of this work is the use of low-toxicity and recyclable cadmium acetate instead of cancer-causing and nonrecyclable cadmium oxide, which will be helpful to reduce environmental pollution.

Thiram plays a critical role in protecting fruits and vegetables from damage by various crop diseases, but its residues significantly affect the environment, such as soil and water pollution, and becoming a serious threat to human health. Herein, Tween 80-capped copper nanoparticles (Tween 80-CuNPs) were developed as a convenient and low-cost colorimetric probe for selective detection of thiram pesticide. In the presence of thiram, the color of Tween 80-capped CuNPs changed from dark brown to olive green and colorless at high thiram concentrations. The Tween 80-capped CuNPs-based colorimetric probe exhibited good selectivity and high sensitivity (LOD about 0.17 μM) with a high linearity level in the calibration range of 0.5–25 μM of thiram concentrations. The thiram limit of detection (LOD) of proposed sensor is lower than the maximum residue limit (MRL) regulated by the governments of EU and Vietnam. Moreover, the proposed sensor was successfully applied to determine thiram in tap water with percentage recovery of 98-107% and high repeatability (). The obtained results indicated that Tween 80-capped CuNPs would become a cost-effective sensing platform for ultrahigh-sensitive thiram determination in the environmental water samples.

Conventional nanozyme-based pesticide detection often requires the assistance of acetylcholinesterase. In this work, a CuCeTA nanozyme was successfully designed for the direct colorimetric detection of glyphosate. Direct detection can effectively avoid the problems caused by cascading with natural enzymes such as acetylcholinesterase. By assembling tannic acid, copper sulfate pentahydrate and cerium(III) nitrate hexahydrate, CuCeTA nanoflowers were prepared. The obtained CuCeTA possessed excellent peroxidase-like activity that could catalyze the oxidation of 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to blue oxidized TMB in the presence of hydrogen peroxide. Glyphosate could effectively inhibit the peroxidase-like activity of CuCeTA while other pesticides (fenthion, chlorpyrifos, profenofos, phosmet, bromoxynil and dichlorophen) did not show significant inhibitory effects on the catalytic activity of CuCeTA. In this way, CuCeTA could be used for the colorimetric detection of glyphosate with a low detection limit of 0.025 ppm. Combined with a smartphone and imageJ software, a glyphosate test paper was designed with a detection limit of 3.09 ppm. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy demonstrated that glyphosate and CuCeTA might be bound by coordination, which could affect the catalytic activity of CuCeTA. Our CuCeTA-based nanozyme system exhibited unique selectivity and sensitivity for glyphosate detection and this work may provide a new strategy for rapid and convenient detection of pesticides.

The overuse of mixed pesticides poses a threat to both the ecosystem and human health, yet general pesticide detection methods are complex in terms of steps, such as the need for pretreatment and cleaning. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has been used for real-life trace detection of residues due to its rapid detection and ultra-high sensitivity. Here, we prepared a novel Ti 3 C 2 Tx (MXene)-noble metal hybrid flexible substrate with a layer of MXene on top of flower-like Ag nanoparticles (AgNFs), and finally grew Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) by galvanic replacement and self-reduction reactions. The limit of detection (LOD) can be as low as 2 × 10 -12 M by detecting 4-mercaptobenzoic acid (4MBA). For efficient sampling, transparent and flexible platform made of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) were used for the extraction and detection of thiabendazole (TBZ), thiram, methyl parathion (MP) and their mixtures. Notably, the lowest concentrations detected by swabbing on the tomato surface (3.7 ng/mL, 2.8 ng/mL) were lower than the EU maximum permissible limits of pesticides on raw fruits and vegetables (4.0 mg/L, 6.33 mg/mL). This high performance Ti 3 C 2 Tx-noble metal hybrid flexible substrate offers a great advantage in the trace detection of molecules.

Pesticide pollution has become a serious problem that threatens public health, so it is necessary to develop a method that can detect pesticides rapidly and sensitively. In this study, we report a novel fluorescent imprinted sensor based on quantum dots (QDs) synthesized via a facile and versatile swelling technique for highly selective detection of bifenthrin (BI). Compared with other fluorescent molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), it has three significant differences: firstly, polystyrene (PS) microspheres make up the polymer matrix and were prepared in advance; secondly, the interactions are not hydrogen bonding and covalent interactions, but van der Waals and hydrophobic forces; thirdly, aqueous QDs were successful applied to the swelling process using a polymerizable surfactant. The unique fluorescent sensor (MIPs (PS)-OVDAC/CdTe QDs) possesses the strong fluorescence and sensitivity of QDs and the high selectivity of molecularly imprinted polymers as well as a uniform morphology via this novel swelling strategy. As a result, the fluorescence intensity of the MIPs (PS)-OVDAC/CdTe QDs was strongly decreased within less than 25 min upon binding BI, and the quenching fractions of the MIPs (PS)-OVDAC/CdTe QDs presented a good linearity with BI concentrations in the range of 0.5–40 μM with a correlation coefficient of 0.9918. In addition, the limit of detection (LOD) was as low as 0.08 μmol L−1 and a high imprinting factor of 4.11 was obtained. The developed method was successfully applied to the determination of BI in honey samples. The present study provides a facile and efficient strategy to develop fluorescent sensors for rapid recognition and selective detection of organic pollutants from complex matrices.

The development of sensitive fluorescence sensors and efficient preparation of samples is a challenge in the detection of pesticides in complex samples. In this study, multicolor nitrogen dots (M-Ndots) were synthesised via microwave irradiation at 140 °C for 10 min with 5-amino-1H-tetrazole and p-phenylenediamine as precursors, which have a high fluorescence quantum yield of up to 31%. Furthermore, the M-Ndots were employed as fluorescence sensors for pesticide detection by being combined with a gas membrane separation device, to eliminate the interference from the complex sample matrix. In this process, the M-Ndots were used for sensing thiram and chlorpyrifos through their affinities to Cu 2+ and Fe 3+ , respectively. Because thiram could decompose into volatile CS 2 , its derivate was sensed using the fluorescence of M-Ndots via a complexation reaction with Cu 2+ . Chlorpyrifos, due to its volatility, can reduce the Fe 3+ ion by inhibiting the activity of acetylcholinesterase , which produces H 2 O 2 to oxidise Fe 2+ . In a real application, the time consumption for 96 samples was less than 30 min in one run of the gas membrane separation device. The recoveries for thiram and chlorpyrifos ranged from 90.0% to 115.0%, and the analytical results were validated using LC-MS/MS methods, with relative errors ranging from −7.4% to 10.1%.

As a popular detection model, the fluorescence “turn-off” sensor based on quantum dots (QDs) has already been successfully employed in the detections of many materials, especially in the researches on the interactions between pesticides. However, the previous studies are mainly focused on simple single track or the comparison based on similar concentration of drugs. In this work, a new detection method based on the fluorescence “turn-off” model with water-soluble ZnCdSe and CdSe QDs simultaneously as the fluorescent probes is established to detect various pesticides. The fluorescence of the two QDs can be quenched by different pesticides with varying degrees, which leads to the differences in positions and intensities of two peaks. By combining with chemometrics methods, all the pesticides can be qualitative and quantitative respectively even in real samples with the limit of detection was 2 × 10 −8 mol L −1 and a recognition rate of 100%. This work is, to the best of our knowledge, the first report on the detection of pesticides based on the fluorescence quenching phenomenon of double quantum dots combined with chemometrics methods. What's more, the excellent selectivity of the system has been verified in different mediums such as mixed ion disruption, waste water , tea and water extraction liquid drugs.

Present work reports preparation of colloidal single/few layer Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene flakes using minimally intensive layer delamination (MILD) method for rapid electroanalytical screening of carbamate pesticides . Lithium fluoride salt and hydrochloric acid (7.5 M LiF/9M HCl) was used to produce in-situ generated HF as etchant to remove Al successfully from Ti 3 AlC 2 MAX phase. Unlike the clay method (5 M LiF/6M HCl), this methodology simplified Ti 3 C 2 T x synthesis protocol resulting in Li + ions intercalated Ti 3 C 2 T x which was delaminated without further sonication . The delaminated Ti 3 C 2 T x flakes were found to be single/few layered sheets with mostly –OH and –O terminated surface groups. The characteristic 002 peak observed in X-ray diffraction (XRD) at 2θ = 6.4° with interplaner distance of 1.1137 nm suggested broadening of the peak attributed to the presence of Li + ions between Ti 3 C 2 T x flakes. Delaminated Ti 3 C 2 T x flakes were utilized as working electrode which demonstrated simultaneous and selective detection of carbamate pesticides methiocarb and diethofencarb by voltammetry . The oxidation peaks of the two pesticides were well separated by a potential difference of 0.35 V in 0.5 M H 2 SO 4 and DPV detection limits were calculated as 0.19 μg mL −1 and 0.46 μg mL −1 for methiocarb and diethofencarb respectively. Ti 3 C 2 T x flakes as electrochemical sensor exhibited long term stability and acceptable recoveries in real sample for environmental applications.

In this paper, a luminescent metal-organic framework Tb 3+ @tartaric acid-functionalized Zr-MOF (Tb 3+ @UiO-67-bpy-TA, TA = tartaric acid) was prepared by post-synthetic modification (PSM) and used as a fluorescence sensor for the detection of the pesticide nitenpyram (NTP). The fluorescence sensing experiment verified that Tb 3+ @UiO-67-bpy-TA had exceptional sensitivity and selectivity for NTP detection, and the detection limit was calculated to be as low as 1.28 µM. The mechanism studies indicated that competitive UV absorption, photoinduced electron transfer (PET) and dynamic quenching contributed to the fluorescence quenching process. In addition, the detection of NTP in tap water and Yellow River water samples by the Tb 3+ @UiO-67-bpy-TA were also investigated using standard addition method, and satisfactory recoveries were achieved.

Single-atom nanozymes (SAzymes) are novel mimic-enzyme materials with atomically doped active sites. They play a pivotal role in the field of nanozymes because of their excellent catalytic activities, high utilization efficiency of the metal atoms, and simple model of active sites. Herein, the peroxidase (POD)-like SAzymes with high-loading iridium (Ir) (5.31%) on graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets [Ir(III)/GO] were prepared through a coordination reaction between the Ir(III) complex and the oxygen-containing groups in GO. The preparation strategy avoids nitrogen doping and pyrolysis procedures which are the usually used strategies to improve the GO-based enzyme mimic activity. Ascribed to the highly active Ir atoms, Ir(III)/GO SAzymes demonstrate outstanding POD-like activity without the oxidase-like activity. In advantage of the excellent POD-like activity, a simple and sensitive colorimetric pesticide detection platform is established. The developed sensing platform offers an excellent “switch-on” pirimicarb (PIB) detection in the linear range of 10–300 nM with a limit of detection (LOD) of 2.81 nM. Moreover, the detection platform was fabricated into a portable test kit, which is composed of a test swab and sample processing tube. In the aid of a color-reading APP, the test kit can detect PIB with the LOD of 3.31 nM. It is astonishing to get this excellent detection sensitivity just using the simple colorimetric strategy. This work not only provides a novel strategy to synthesize Ir-based SAzymes but also exhibits the super capability of Ir(III)/GO in the biosensing field.

Unreasonable or illegal utilization of pesticides may lead to pollution of agricultural products, especially with some persistent but effective pesticides. Hence, there is an urgent need to develop sensitive and rapid methods for pesticide detection to ensure the safety of agricultural products. Herein, a dual-mode ratiometric sensing system utilizing two gold nanoclusters (G/R–AuNCs) was designed and constructed for paraquat (PQ) detection, a typical, highly toxic, widely used pesticide. Initially, a ratiometric fluorescent method was developed based on green-emitting (Em∼530 nm) and red-emitting (Em∼655 nm) gold nanoclusters. Relying on the electrostatic interaction between G-AuNCs and PQ, G-AuNCs were quenched as a sensing unit. R–AuNCs with chemical inertness and excellent stability to PQ served as correction signals. The selective and sensitive detection of PQ was successfully achieved with a satisfactory linear relationship within the range of 5–500 μg/L, and the limit of detection (LOD) was as low as 1.68 μg/L (6.5 nM). Furthermore, PQ can be detected through visual analysis based on smart mobile devices. As the concentration increased, a more noticeable color change occurred, producing a significant shift from yellow to red under 365 nm UV light, resulting in a striking visual effect. This research not only showcases the practical benefits of the dual-mode analytical method but also drives forward the application of ratiometric probes.
