[PMID: 38277929 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.138499] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2023] [Revised: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 01/16/2024] [Indexed: 01/28/2024]
Abstract
As an emerging porous material, hydrogen-bonded organic framework materials (HOFs) still pose application challenges. In this work, the designed type "I + II" heterojunction extracted hot electrons from HOFs using quantum dots (QDs) and polypyrrole (Ppy), improving the stability and photoelectrochemical performance of materials. In addition to serving as a potential well, electropolymerized Ppy was used as a recognition element for bisphenol A (BPA), and a novel self-powered molecularly imprinted photoelectrochemical (MIP-PEC) sensor was designed. The sensing platform showed a linear relationship from 1 × 10-10 to 1 × 10-7 mol∙L-1 and from 1 × 10-7 to 1 mol∙L-1 with an acceptable detection limit of 4.2 × 10-11 mol∙L-1. This is the first application of HOFs in constructing MIP-PEC sensors and a new attempt to improve the stability of HOFs for the application of porous crystal materials in the sensing field.

Design and synthesis of nano-iron oxyhydroxide-based molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensors for trace-level carbendazim detection in actual samples. Mikrochim Acta 2024; 191:163.

Abstract
Carbendazim (CBD) is widely used as a fungicide that acts as a pesticide in farming to prevent crop diseases. However, CBD can remain on crops for a long time. When consumed by humans and animals, it produces a range of toxic symptoms and poses a serious threat to their health. Therefore, the detection of CBD is necessary. Traditional assay strategies for CBD detection, although sensitive and practical, can hardly achieve fast, robust monitoring during food processing and daily life. Here, we designed a novel electrochemical sensor for CBD detection. In this method, iron oxyhydroxide nanomaterial (β-FeOOH) was first prepared by hydrothermal method. Then, a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) layer was electropolymerized on the surface using CBD as the template and resorcinol (RC) as the functional monomer. The synergistic interaction between β-FeOOH and MIP endows the MIP/β-FeOOH/CC-based electrochemical sensor with high specificity and sensitivity. Under optimal conditions, the MIP/β-FeOOH/CC-based sensor showed a wide linear range of 39 pM-80 nM for CBD and a detection limit as low as 25 pM. Therefore, the as-prepared sensor can be a practical and effective tool for pesticide residue detection.

Abstract
Carbendazim, a fungicide widely used in agriculture, has been classified as a hazardous chemical by the World Health Organization due to its environmental persistence. It is prohibited in several countries; therefore, detecting it in food and environmental samples is highly necessary. A reliable, rapid, and low-cost method uses electrochemical sensors and biosensors, especially those modified with carbon-based materials with good analytical performance. In this review, we summarize the use of carbon-based electrochemical (bio)sensors for detecting carbendazim in environmental and food matrixes, with a particular interest in the role of carbon materials. Focus on publications between 2018 and 2023 that have been describing the use of carbon nanotubes, carbon nitride, graphene, and its derivatives, and carbon-based materials as modifiers, emphasizing the analytical performance obtained, such as linear range, detection limit, selectivity, and the matrix where the detection was applied.

Rational design of Nd 2O 3 decorated functionalized carbon nanofiber composite for selective electrochemical detection of carbendazim fungicides in vegetables, water, and soil samples. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 219:115140. [PMID: 36565846 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2022.115140] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2022] [Revised: 12/06/2022] [Accepted: 12/21/2022] [Indexed: 05/26/2023]
Abstract
Abuse of carbendazim (CBZ) leaves excessive pesticide residues on agricultural products, which endangers human health because of the residues' high concentrations. Hence, a composite consisting of functionalized carbon nanofibers (f-CNF) with neodymium oxide (Nd2O3) was fabricated to monitor CBZ at trace levels. The Nd2O3/f-CNF composite-modified electrode displays higher electro-oxidation ability towards CBZ than Nd2O3 and f-CNF-modified electrodes. The combined unique properties of Nd2O3 and f-CNF result in a substantial specific surface area, superior structural stability, and excellent electrocatalytic activity of the composite yielding enhanced sensitivity to detecting CBZ with a detection limit of 4.3 nM. Also, the fabricated sensor electrode can detect CBZ in the linear concentration range of up to 243.0 μM with high selectivity, appropriate reproducibility, and stability. A demonstration of the sensing capability of CBZ in vegetables, water, and soil samples was reported paving the way for its use in practical applications.

Abstract
AbstractThe toxicity of propachlor (PROP) with its chloroacetanilide members is reported. Rapid and sensitive detection of PROP is critical for ecotoxicity evaluation and the removal process. A novel voltammetric sensor is developed based on imprinted poly (o-phenylene diamine-co-pyrrole) (o-PD-co-Py) and electrochemically reduced graphene oxide (ERGO) to detect PROP at a trace level. The use of ERGO provides a high density of imprinted cavities for better sensitivity. The imprinted layer of poly (o-PD-co-Py) improves the selectivity of the sensor. The electrode modification was characterized by scanning electron microscopy and electrochemical approaches. The working parameters of the sensor were investigated and optimized. The redox behavior of an external probe of [Fe(CN)6]3−/4− was recorded as the sensor signal for PROP selective binding. The proposed sensor presented wide linear responses to logarithmic PROP concentrations from 0.1 pM to 0.1 µM with a LOD of 0.08 pM. The sensor’s selectivity against some interference was demonstrated. This sensor was applied successfully to detect PROP in spiked water (lake and tap), red tea, and soil samples with good recoveries and reasonable RSD % values.

Abstract
Carbendazim (CAR) as a fungicide is utilized for fruits and vegetables to provide diseases' control and the degradation of carbendazim having benzimidazole ring is slow. Herein, a molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensor based on CdMoO4/g-C3N4 nanocomposite was prepared for CAR determination in fruit juice samples. Firstly, CdMoO4/g-C3N4 nanocomposite with high yield was fabricated via one-pot in-situ hydrothermal approach including environmentally friendly method. Formation of CAR imprinted polymers was performed on CdMoO4/g-C3N4 nanocomposite modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) in presence of CAR as template and pyrrole (Py) as a monomer by cyclic voltammetry (CV) technique. Following the morphological, structural, and optical characterization of as-synthesized nanocomposite, the electrochemical techniques were also implemented to evaluate the electrochemical features of fabricated electrodes. The limit of quantification (LOQ) and limit of detection (LOD) values were calculated as 0.1 × 10-10 M, and 2.5 × 10-12 M, respectively in addition to satisfactory selectivity, stability, reproducibility and reusability. The findings revealed that the proposed CAR imprinted electrochemical sensor can be successfully employed in food safety.
