Abstract
Pesticide usage is one of the significant issues in modern agricultural practices; hence, monitoring pesticide content and its degradation is of utmost importance. A novel and simple one-pot deep eutectic solvent-based solvothermal method has been developed for the synthesis of FeVO4/reduced graphene oxide (FeV/RGO) nanocomposite. The band gap of FeV decreased upon anchoring with RGO. Enhanced activity in the detection and photocatalytic degradation has been achieved in the FeV/RGO nanocomposite compared to pure FeV and RGO. FeV/RGO was used to modify glassy carbon electrode (GCE), and the fabricated electrode was evaluated for its electrochemical detection of methyl parathion (MP). The amperometric technique was found to be more sensitive with a 0.001-260 μM (two linear ranges; 0.001-20 and 25-260 μM) wide linear range and low limit of detection value (0.70 nM). The practical applicability of modified GCE is more selective and sensitive to real samples like river water and green beans. Photocatalytic degradation of MP has been examined using FeV, RGO, and FeV/RGO nanocomposite. FeV/RGO managed to degrade 95% of MP under solar light in 80 min. Degradation parameters were optimized carefully to attain maximum efficiency. Degradation intermediates were identified using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis. The degradation mechanism has been studied in detail. FeV/RGO could serve as a material of choice in the field of electrochemical sensors as well as heterogeneous catalysis toward environmental remediation.

A Review of Nanocomposite-Modified Electrochemical Sensors for Water Quality Monitoring. SENSORS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2021; 21:4131. [PMID: 34208587 PMCID: PMC8233775 DOI: 10.3390/s21124131] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2021] [Revised: 05/31/2021] [Accepted: 06/02/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Electrochemical sensors play a significant role in detecting chemical ions, molecules, and pathogens in water and other applications. These sensors are sensitive, portable, fast, inexpensive, and suitable for online and in-situ measurements compared to other methods. They can provide the detection for any compound that can undergo certain transformations within a potential window. It enables applications in multiple ion detection, mainly since these sensors are primarily non-specific. In this paper, we provide a survey of electrochemical sensors for the detection of water contaminants, i.e., pesticides, nitrate, nitrite, phosphorus, water hardeners, disinfectant, and other emergent contaminants (phenol, estrogen, gallic acid etc.). We focus on the influence of surface modification of the working electrodes by carbon nanomaterials, metallic nanostructures, imprinted polymers and evaluate the corresponding sensing performance. Especially for pesticides, which are challenging and need special care, we highlight biosensors, such as enzymatic sensors, immunobiosensor, aptasensors, and biomimetic sensors. We discuss the sensors' overall performance, especially concerning real-sample performance and the capability for actual field application.

Abstract
Pesticides are chemicals widely used for agricultural industry, despite their negative impact on health and environment. Although various methods have been developed for pesticide degradation to remedy such adverse effects, conventional materials often take hours to days for complete decomposition and are difficult to recycle. Here, we demonstrate the rapid degradation of organophosphate pesticides with a Zr-based metal-organic framework (MOF), showing complete degradation within 15 min. MOFs with different active site structures (Zr node connectivity and geometry) were compared, and a porphyrin-based MOF with six-connected Zr nodes showed remarkable degradation efficiency with half-lives of a few minutes. Such a high efficiency was further confirmed in a simple flow system for several cycles. This study reveals that MOFs can be highly potent heterogeneous catalysts for organophosphate pesticide degradation, suggesting that coordination geometry of the Zr node significantly influences the catalytic activity.

Abstract
The catalytic chemosensing assay (CCA), a new indicator displacement assay, was developed for selective detection of methomyl, a highly toxic pesticide. Trimetallic complex {[FeII (dmbpy)(CN)4 ]-[PtII (DMSO)Cl]2 -[RuII (bpy)2 (CN)2 ]} (1; dmbpy=4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine, bpy=2,2'-bipyridine) was synthesized as a task-specific catalyst to initially reduce and degrade methomyl to CH3 SH/CH3 NH2 /CH3 CN/CO2 . The thus-produced CH3 SH interacts with the trimetallic complex to displace the cis-[RuII (bpy)2 (CN)2 ] luminophore for monitoring. Other pesticides, including organophosphates and similar carbamate pesticides, remained intact under the same catalytic conditions; a selective sensing signal is only activated when 1 recognizes methomyl. Furthermore, 1 can be applied to detect methomyl in real water samples. In the luminescent mode of the assay, the method detection limit (MDL) of 1 for methomyl (LD50 =17 mg kg-1 ) was 1.12 mg L-1 .

Abstract
Organophosphates are used as agricultural pesticides and also encountered as toxic nerve agents in chemical warfare. Accordingly, development of sensors for detecting and monitoring organophosphate vapors is highly sought after. We present a new capacitive gas sensor exhibiting remarkable specificity and sensitivity toward the organophosphate nerve gas simulants triethyl-phosphate (TEP) and dimethyl methyl phosphate and the pesticide dichlorvos. Specifically, the capacitive sensor comprises a composite porous graphene oxide matrix intercalating cobalt or nickel ions, prepared through a simple freeze-drying procedure. We demonstrate that the porous graphene oxide/metal ion electrode undergoes fast capacitance changes only upon exposure to organophosphate vapors. Moreover, the sensor exhibits extraordinary sensitivity upon interactions with TEP. Detailed mechanistic analyses, carried out in comparison to porous graphene oxide coupled to other transition metal ions, reveal that the remarkable sensing properties of the Co2+ or Ni2+/porous graphene oxide systems likely arise from the distinct mode of metal ion incorporation into the graphene oxide host matrix and substitution of metal-complexed water ligands with organophosphate molecules. The new metal ion/porous graphene oxide capacitive sensor may be employed for alerting and monitoring organophosphate gases in different environments.
