The accurate detection of benzoylurea insecticides (BUs) residues is vital for the environment and human health. In this work, a room-temperature synthesis strategy was developed to fabricate the covalent organic framework (COF)–polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibers composite by an electrospinning technique. The COF was functionalized on PAN nanofibers via in situ polymerization of 1,3,5-tris(4-aminophenyl)triazine (TAPT) and 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoroterephthaldehyde (TFTA). The obtained TAPT-TFTA@PAN nanofibers showed a porous structure, high surface area, good crystallinity and excellent extraction efficiency to BUs. A sensitive method combining dispersive solid-phase extraction (DSPE) using TAPT-TFTA@PAN nanofibers as an adsorbent with liquid chromatography–ultraviolet detector was developed for trace analysis of four BUs in environment water samples. This method achieved a wide linear range of 0.5–200 ng·mL −1 for triflumuron and hexaflumuron, and of 0.5–150 ng·mL −1 for teflubenzuron and fluazuron. The limits of detection (S/N = 3) for four BUs ranged from 0.11 to 0.42 ng·mL −1 . The accuracy of the proposed method was validated by measuring trace BUs in the spiked water samples with recoveries in the range of 98.3 %∼125.3 %. The results demonstrated that the TAPT-TFTA@PAN nanofibers have great potential as an extractant for effective enrichment of benzoylurea insecticide from complex water samples.

The widespread use of benzoylurea insecticides (BUs) has led to significant resistance issues in various agricultural pests. Previous studies have demonstrated that the overexpression of sigma glutathione S-transferase 1 (PxGSTs1) can confer resistance to novaluron in Plutella xylostella; however, the underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear. This study investigates the role of glutathione S-transferase PxGSTs1 in mediating resistance to BUs in P. xylostella. Using a combination of RNA interference and transgenic Drosophila models, we demonstrated that the overexpression of PxGSTs1 significantly contributes to the resistance against BUs. Functional assays revealed that PxGSTs1 binds to these insecticides with varying affinities. Structural analysis through homology modeling and molecular docking identified the importance of hydrogen bonding and pi–pi stacking in resistance mechanisms. Site-directed mutagenesis confirmed the critical role of Ser65 and Tyr97 in these interactions. Our findings provide a molecular basis for the development of novel BUs and inform strategies for managing BU resistance in P. xylostella.

The creation of defects in crystalline structures can tune metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) properties, such as improving their adsorptive and catalytic performance with producing more porosity and active sites. In this work, the bimetallic UiO-66 containing Zn and Zr was prepared. And then UiO-66 with missing cluster defects (UiO-66-1/3) were obtained by acid washing to remove the Zn nodes. UiO-66-1/3 was used as sorbent of dispersive solid-phase extraction (dSPE) to extract and enrich (BUs). Combination with high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector (HPLC-DAD) was developed to detect trace BUs in soil samples. Adsorption equilibrium can be reached in 3 min. The method possesses high enrichment factor (202-325), low detection limit (0.005-0.04 ng·mL -1 ), and wide linear range (0.02-200 ng·mL -1 ). In addition, the recovery rate of UiO-66-1/3 as an adsorbent was still higher than 95% after reused for 16 times. This work provides a new material for the enrichment and detection of benzoylurea insecticides in the environment.
