Abstract
Glufosinate is widely used to control various weeds. Glufosinate and its main metabolites have become the focus of attention because of their high water solubility and persistence in aquatic systems. Quantification of the agrochemical product and its metabolite residues is essential for the safety of agricultural products. In this study, a highly specific, simple method was developed to directly determine glufosinate and its metabolite residues in 21 plant origin foods by liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), and it was validated on 11 foods in five laboratories. Finally, the repeatability limit, reproducibility limit, and uncertainty of the method were calculated based on these validated data and used to support the more accurate detection results. Four different chromatographic columns were used to analyze three target compounds, and the anionic polar pesticide column showed the optimum separation and peak shape. Composition of the mobile phase, extraction solvent, and the clean-up procedure were optimized. The developed method was validated on 21 plant origin foods. The average recoveries were 74-115% for all matrices. The validation results of five laboratories showed this method had a good repeatability (RSDr < 9.5%) and reproducibility (RSDR < 18.9%). The method validation parameters met the requirements of guidance established by the European Union (EU) and China for pesticide residue analysis. This methodology can be used for a routine monitoring that performs well for glufosinate and its metabolite residues.

Tongur T, Ayranci E. Investigation of the performance of activated carbon cloth to remove glyphosate, glufosinate, aminomethylphosphonic acid and bialaphos from aqueous solutions by adsorption/electrosorption. ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING AND ASSESSMENT 2023; 195:814. [PMID: 37286884 DOI: 10.1007/s10661-023-11395-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2023] [Accepted: 05/15/2023] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
The present study investigates the removal of glyphosate, glufosinate, aminomethylphosphonic acid and bialaphos herbicides from their 5 × 10-5 M aqueous solutions onto activated carbon cloth by adsorption and electrosorption. Analysis of these highly polar herbicides was achieved by UV-visible absorbance measurements, after derivatization with 9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl chloride. The limit of quantification values of glyphosate, glufosinate, aminomethylphosphonic acid and bialaphos were 1.06 × 10-6 mol L-1, 1.38 × 10-6 mol L-1, 1.32 × 10-6 mol L-1 and 1.08 × 10-6 mol L-1, respectively. Glyphosate, glufosinate, aminomethylphosphonic acid and bialaphos were removed from their aqueous solutions with higher efficiencies by means of electrosorption (78.2%, 94.9%, 82.3% and 97%, respectively) than of open-circuit adsorption (42.5%, 22%, 6.9% and 81.8%, respectively). Experimental kinetic data were fitted to pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order kinetic models. It was determined that pseudo-second order kinetic model represents experimental data better with satisfactory coefficient of determination, r2 (> 0.985) and normalized percent deviation, P (< 5.15) values. Adsorption isotherm data were treated according to Freundlich and Langmuir isotherm models. Based on the r2 (> 0.98) and P (< 5.9) values, it was found that experimental data well fitted to Freundlich isotherm model. Adsorption capacities of activated carbon cloth for glyphosate, glufosinate, aminomethylphosphonic acid and bialaphos, expressed in terms of Freundlich constant, were calculated as 20.31, 118.73, 239.33 and 30.68 mmol g-1, respectively. The results show that the studied ACC can be used in home/business water treatment systems as an adsorbent due to its high adsorption capacity.

The Chemistry and Applications of Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) as Industrial Enzyme Immobilization Systems. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27144529. [PMID: 35889401 PMCID: PMC9320690 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27144529] [Citation(s) in RCA: 45] [Impact Index Per Article: 22.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2022] [Revised: 07/12/2022] [Accepted: 07/13/2022] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
Enzymatic biocatalysis is a sustainable technology. Enzymes are versatile and highly efficient biocatalysts, and have been widely employed due to their biodegradable nature. However, because the three-dimensional structure of these enzymes is predominantly maintained by weaker non-covalent interactions, external conditions, such as temperature and pH variations, as well as the presence of chemical compounds, can modify or even neutralize their biological activity. The enablement of this category of processes is the result of the several advances in the areas of molecular biology and biotechnology achieved over the past two decades. In this scenario, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are highlighted as efficient supports for enzyme immobilization. They can be used to ‘house’ a specific enzyme, providing it with protection from environmental influences. This review discusses MOFs as structures; emphasizes their synthesis strategies, properties, and applications; explores the existing methods of using immobilization processes of various enzymes; and lists their possible chemical modifications and combinations with other compounds to formulate the ideal supports for a given application.

Capillary electrophoresis applied for the determination of acidity constants and limiting electrophoretic mobilities of ionizable herbicides including glyphosate and its metabolites and for their simultaneous separation.

Abstract
Thermodynamic acidity constants and limiting ionic mobilities were determined for polyprotic non-chromophore analytes using capillary electrophoresis with capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection. It was not necessary to work with buffers of identical ionic strength as ionic strength effects on effective electrophoretic mobilities were corrected by modeling during data evaluation (software AnglerFish). The mobility data from capillary electrophoresis coupled to conductivity detection were determined in the pH range from 1.25 to 12.02 with a high resolution (36 pH steps). With this strategy, thermodynamic acidity constants and limiting ionic mobilities for various acidic herbicides were determined, sometimes for the first time. The model analytes included glyphosate, its metabolites, and its acetylated derivates (aminomethyl phosphonic acid, glyoxylic acid, sarcosine, glycine, N-acetyl glyphosate, N-acetyl aminomethyl phosphonic acid, hydroxymethyl phosphonic acid). The obtained data were used in simulations to optimize separations by capillary electrophoresis. Simulations correlated very well to experimental results. With the new method, the separation of glyphosate from interfering components like phosphate in beer samples was possible.

Abstract
Several studies have shown the development of electrochemical biosensors based on enzymes immobilized in metal–organic frameworks (MOFs). Although enzymes have unique properties, such as efficiency, selectivity, and environmental sustainability, when immobilized, these properties are improved, presenting significant potential for several biotechnological applications. Using MOFs as matrices for enzyme immobilization has been considered a promising strategy due to their many advantages compared to other supporting materials, such as larger surface areas, higher porosity rates, and better stability. Biosensors are analytical tools that use a bioactive element and a transducer for the detection/quantification of biochemical substances in the most varied applications and areas, in particular, food, agriculture, pharmaceutical, and medical. This review will present novel insights on the construction of biosensors with materials based on MOFs. Herein, we have been highlighted the use of MOF for biosensing for biomedical, food safety, and environmental monitoring areas. Additionally, different methods by which immobilizations are performed in MOFs and their main advantages and disadvantages are presented.

WATER ENVIRONMENT RESEARCH : A RESEARCH PUBLICATION OF THE WATER ENVIRONMENT FEDERATION 2021; 93:1995-2009. [PMID: 33835627 DOI: 10.1002/wer.1571] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2020] [Revised: 03/13/2021] [Accepted: 04/01/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
The mechanisms and effectiveness of using zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) [a sub-family of metal-organic framework (MOF)] particles on hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] removal were evaluated. The ultrasonic mixing method was applied for the preparation of ZIF-8, and chemicals used for ZIF-8 synthesis included ammonium hydroxide, zinc nitrate hexahydrate, and 2-methylimidazole. ZIF-8 particle had a clear rhombic dodecahedron morphology shape and a strong peak intensity with high crystallinity. The adsorption capacity (AC) of ZIF-8 was 30.3 mg of Cr(VI)/g of ZIF-8 [Cr(VI) = 50 mg/L]. The AC of Cr(VI) raised to 34.3 mg/g under acidic conditions (pH = 5), and the AC dropped to below 13.7 mg/g with a pH range from 7 to 11. It could be because of the competitive effects between CrO4 2- and hydroxide ions for adsorption locations of ZIF-8. Cr(VI) removal relied on the amount of Cr(VI) adsorbed on the particles of ZIF-8, and the mechanisms of Cr(VI) adsorption by ZIF-8 included chemical/physical processes and the rate-limiting step was the chemical adsorption. A fraction of sorbed Cr(VI) was reduced to Cr(III), and thus, ZIF-8 could serve as a reducing agent during Cr(VI) reduction. Cr(VI) was removed effectively from the water phase by ZIF-8 via adsorption and reduction mechanisms. PRACTITIONER POINTS: ZIF-8 particles had an adsorption capacity of 30.33 mg of Cr(VI)/g of ZIF-8. Cr(VI) sorption by ZIF-8 has chemical (rate-limiting step) and physical processes. ZIF-8 can serve as a reducing agent for Cr(VI) reduction. Cr(VI) can be removed by ZIF-8 via the adsorption and reduction mechanisms.

Abstract
A variety of contaminants in food is an important aspect affecting food safety. Due to the presence of its trace amounts and the complexity of food matrix, it is very difficult to effectively separate and accurately detect them. The magnetic metal-organic framework (MMOF) composites with different structures and functions provide a new choice for the purification of food matrix and enrichment of trace targets, thus providing a new direction for the development of new technologies in food safety detection with high sensitivity and efficiency. The MOF materials composed of inorganic subunits and organic ligands have the advantages of regular pore structure, large specific surface area and good stability, which have been thoroughly studied in the pretreatment of complex food samples. MMOF materials combined different MOF materials with various magnetic nanoparticles, adding magnetic characteristics to the advantages of MOF materials, which are in terms of material selectivity, biocompatibility, easy operation and repeatability. Combined with solid phase extraction (SPE) technique, MMOF materials have been widely used in the food pretreatment. This article introduced the new preparation strategies of different MMOF materials, systematically summarizes their applications as SPE adsorbents in the pretreatment of food contaminants and analyzes and prospects their future application prospects and development directions.
