Abstract
A simple, low-cost, and highly sensitive method using a modified QuECHERS procedure based on a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometer (LC-MS/MS) was established to simultaneously quantify lufenuron and chlorfenapyr and the corresponding metabolite tralopyril in cabbage for the first time. On the basis of this method, terminal residue and dietary risk of lufenuron and chlorfenapyr in cabbage were investigated. The recoveries of lufenuron, chlorfenapyr, and tralopyril ranged from 88 to 110%, with relative standard deviation of less than 12.4%. The field trial results showed that at the pre-harvest interval (PHI) of 21 days, the terminal residues of lufenuron, chlorfenapyr, and tralopyril in the supervised trials were not higher than 0.02 mg/kg, and the highest detected residue levels of lufenuron, chlorfenapyr, and tralopyril were 0.047, 0.055, and <0.02 mg·kg-1 at 14-day pre-harvest respectively, which were lower than the maximum residue limits (MRLs) for cabbage established in China. For the dietary risk assessment, the national estimated daily intakes (NEDIs) as proportion of acceptable daily intakes (ADIs) were 80.4% and 29.9% for chlorfenapyr and lufenuron respectively indicating an acceptable dietary risk to Chinese population.

Abstract
Cyclaniliprole, a novel diamide insecticide, can successfully control Spodoptera litura (Fabricius, 1775) in cabbage. Understanding the residual level of cyclaniliprole in crops and the risk related to its dietary intake is imperative for safe application. Here, we established a simplified, sensitive method for simultaneous analysis of cyclaniliprole and its metabolite NK-1375 (3-bromo-2-((2-bromo-4H-pyrazolo[1,5-d]pyrido[3,2-b]-[1,4]oxazin-4-ylidene)amino)-5-chloro-N-(1-cyclopropylethyl)benzamide) in cabbage by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) to investigate their dissipation behavior and residual characteristics. Cyclaniliprole showed rapid dissipation in cabbage and had a half-life of 1.8-2.7 days. The highest residue of total cyclaniliprole (sum of cyclaniliprole and NK-1375) in cabbage from different pre-harvest intervals (3 and 5 days) was 0.25 mg/kg. Our results confirmed the generally low dietary risk quotient of cyclaniliprole (0.243-1.036%) among different age and gender groups in China. Therefore, cyclaniliprole did not pose an unacceptable risk to consumers. This study contributes to setting cyclaniliprole maximum residue limit in cabbage by assessing its dissipation fate and food safety risks.

Abstract
Chordotonal organs are miniature sensory organs present in insects. Chordotonal organs depend on transient receptor potential (TRP) channels. Transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV) channels are the only TRPs identified that can act as targets of insecticides. By binding with TRPV channels, insecticides targeting the chordotonal organs trigger the inflow of calcium ions, resulting in abnormal function of the chordotonal organ to achieve the goal of eliminating pests. TRPV channels are highly expressed in various developmental stages and tissue parts of insects and play an important role in the whole life history of insects. In this review, we will discuss the structure and types of TRPV channels as well as their genetic relationships in different species. We also systematically reviewed the recent progress of TRPV channels as insecticide targets, demonstrating that TRPV channels can be used as the target of new high-efficiency insecticides.

Abstract
Clothianidin pesticide not only pollutes the ecological environment, but also poses a potential threat to human health. Thus, it is of great importance to develop efficient and accurate methods to recognize and detect clothianidin residues in agricultural products. Aptamer has the advantages of easy modification, high affinity and good stability, which is particularly suitable as a recognition biomolecule for pesticide detection. However, the aptamer against clothianidin has not been reported. Herein, the aptamer (named CLO-1) had good selectivity and strong affinity (Kd = 40.66 ± 3.47 nM) to clothianidin pesticide, which was screened for the first time by Capture-SELEX strategy. The binding effect of CLO-1 aptamer to clothianidin was further studied by circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy and molecular docking technique. Finally, the CLO-1 aptamer was used as the recognition molecule to construct a label-free fluorescent aptasensor using GeneGreen dye as sensing signal for the highly sensitive detection of clothianidin pesticide. The constructed fluorescent aptasensor had the limit of detection (LOD) as low as 5.527 μg L-1 for clothianidin, and displayed good selectivity against other competitive pesticides. The aptasensor was applied to detect the clothianidin spiked in tomatoes, pears and cabbages, and the recovery rate was good in the range of 81.99%-106.64%. This study provides a good application prospect for the recognition and detection of clothianidin.

Abstract
Determination and dissipation kinetics of pymetrozine and spirotetramat in green bean were studied using a QuEChERS method coupled to high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Pymetrozine recoveries ranged between 88.4-93.7%, with relative standard deviation (RSD) of 5.5-14.4%. For spirotetramat the recoveries ranged between 91.7-103.4%, and the RSD were in the range of 3.2 to 12.4%. The limits of quantification (LOQs) were 0.01 mg/kg and 0.005 mg/kg for pymetrozine and spirotetramat, respectively.The developed analytical method was used to study the degradation rates of pymetrozine and spirotetramat in green bean grown in open field. Results showed that pymetrozine and spirotetramat followed the first-order kinetics model with half-lives of 3.3 days and 4.2 days, respectively. Furthermore, risk assessment was carried out which showed that, the chronic risk quotient (RQc) values for pymetrozine and spirotetramat were much lower than 100%. The present results indicated that the health risks posed for consumers by the pymetrozine and spirotetramat residues were negligible at the recommended dosages.

Abstract
Pymetrozine is a neonicotinoid insecticide with high efficacy against aphids and planthoppers, and has been used worldwide. To monitor its residue in food, a highly specific and sensitive monoclonal antibody (McAb) was prepared, and an indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (icELISA) was developed to detect pymetrozine, with a 50% inhibition value (IC50) of 7.70 μg/L. The McAb showed little affinity for acetamiprid, hexazinone, metamitron, nitenpyram, metribuzin, and imidacloprid. The limits of detection (LOD) calculated from the analysis of broccoli, cabbage, wheat, maize, rice, chicken, fish, and crayfish samples were from 1.56 to 2.72 μg/kg and the average recoveries were from 81.25 to 103.19%. icELISA was confirmed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). These results demonstrated that the optimised icELISA is a convenient and effective analytical tool for monitoring pymetrozine residues in food.

Abstract
An effective and sensitive analytical method was developed to quantify the most common pesticide residues (difenoconazole, dimethoate, pymetrozine, and chlorantraniliprole) used for brinjal cultivation in Bangladesh. The quantification of the analytes was done using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The samples were extracted using a modified QuEChERS method and followed by purification with dispersive solid phase extraction (d-SPE) sorbents (PSA, GCB, and C18). Matrix-matched calibration with a regression coefficient R2 ≥ 0.9964 were used to minimize the brinjal matrix effect. The method was validated in quintuple (n = 5) at five different spiked levels (8-400 μg/kg) having recoveries in the range of 70.3-113.2% with relative standard deviations RSDs ≤6.8%, limits of detection (LOD) and limits of quantification (LOQ) was in the range of 0.15-0.66 μg/kg and 0.4-2.0 μg/kg, respectively, for the four analytes. A total 100 samples (50 samples directly from fields of Jessore district, Bangladesh and 50 samples from local market of Dhaka, Bangladesh) were collected to analyse the pesticides residue. The result showed that pesticides residue was found in both the field and market collected samples, 54% and 38%, respectively. The overall mean residue levels of four pesticides in field samples were significantly higher than those of market samples. Moreover, 20% of the field samples and 10% of the market samples had dimethoate residues, which were the most abundant among the four analytes and it ranged from 0.017 to 0.252 mg/kg. In terms of health risk assessments, dimethoate showed the highest estimated daily intake (EDI) and hazard quotient (HQ) values that are 3.02 × 10-5 mg/kg/day and 1.51%, respectively, in field samples. Till now, there have been no regulations or guidelines for the maximum admissible pesticide residue in Bangladesh. Therefore, the above findings will be an initial step for the regulatory authorities of Bangladesh to implement regulations and guidelines for pesticide usage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently, chlorfenapyr and diafenthiuron have been widely used to prevent and control diseases and pests in tea production. However, rare studies have investigated the dissipation patterns of chlorfenapyr, diafenthiuron and their metabolites simultaneously in tea matrices. Here, we established an analytical method to investigate the degradation patterns of five target compounds in tea shoots and made tea samples. Moreover, the dietary intake risk assessment of chlorfenapyr-diafenthiuron mixture among Chinese populations was evaluated based on the supervised field experiment. RESULTS The mean recoveries of the primary analytes at five spiking levels were between 95.6% and 112.6% in tea shoots and made tea, respectively, and the values of RSD (relative standard deviation) were lower than 9.7% for all the target analytes. The field trial results showed that the half-lives of chlorfenapyr and diafenthiuron based on the residue definition were 10.0-12.4 days and 4.3-5.9 days, respectively, in tea shoots. For the dietary intake risk assessment, the risk quotient (RQ) values in made tea ranged from 30.4% to 73.9% at the pre-harvest interval of 14 days, which were significantly less than 100%. CONCLUSION The accuracy and precision of the developed method were satisfied by the measurement requirements according to the validation results. The dynamic dissipation experiments suggested that diafenthiuron was much easier to dissipate than chlorfenapyr. Moreover, the existence of tralopyril made the half-life of chlorfenapyr significantly increase, indicating that practical application of chlorfenapyr should take careful consideration of its metabolite. Finally, the potential chronic dietary risks of the chlorfenapyr-diafenthiuron mixture to human communities were within the acceptable range. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
A reliable and simple analytical method was developed and validated to simultaneously determine chlorantraniliprole and indoxacarb in tea using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The average recoveries of chlorantraniliprole were in the range of 86-110%, with the precision of intraday (n = 5) and interday (n = 15) ranging from 1.9 to 8.4% and from 2.4 to 8.8%, respectively. The average recoveries of indoxacarb were in the range 81-105%, with the precision of intraday (n = 5) and interday (n = 15) ranging from 2.0 to 9.8% and from 2.7 to 9.1%, respectively. The limits of quantification (LOQs) were all 0.01 mg/kg. The results based on the supervised field trials showed that chlorantraniliprole and indoxacarb in two tea samples followed first-order kinetics models with half-lives of 2.2-4.7 days and 2.5-3.5 days, which could be regarded as a moderately degrading pesticide. The terminal residues of chlorantraniliprole and indoxacarb in made tea were below 6.7 and 4.5 mg/kg, respectively, lower than their corresponding maximum residue limits (MRLs) established by several major countries and organizations (50 and 5 mg/kg). The leaching rates of chlorantraniliprole and indoxacarb during the tea brewing ranged from 4.78 to 12.62% and 4.13 to 10.67%, respectively. The chronic intake risk quotient (RQc) values for chlorantraniliprole and indoxacarb were 0.24% and 35.10%, while the acute dietary risk assessment (RQa) value of indoxacarb was 5.8%, which were all much lower than 100%. The results in the present study indicated that the health risk posed by the chlorantraniliprole and indoxacarb mixture pesticides was negligible in tea for consumers at the recommended dosages.

Abstract
Pymetrozine is one of the most commonly used insecticides in China. This study was conducted to analyse Pymetrozine's potential exposures through various environmental routes beyond the treatment areas. The aim was to estimate the potential health risk for communities due to non-dietary exposures to Pymetrozine in soil and paddy water. Data on registration of pesticides in China, government reports, questionnaires, interviews and literature reviews as well as toxicological health investigations were evaluated to determine the hazard and dose-response characteristics of Pymetrozine. These were based on the US EPA exposure and human health risk assessment methods and exposure data from soil and paddy water samples collected between 10 and 20 m around the resident's location. The exposure doses from dermal contact through soil and paddy water were estimated. The potential cancer risk from the following exposure routes was evaluated: ingestion through soil; dermal contact exposure through soil; dermal contact exposure through paddy water. The potential total cancer risk for residents was estimated to be less than 1 × 10-6. These were relatively low and within the acceptable risk levels. The potential hazard quotient (HQ) from acute and lifetime exposure by dermal contact through paddy water and soil and acute and lifetime exposure by soil ingestion for residents was less than 1, indicating an acceptable risk level. This study suggested that there were negligible cancer risk and non-cancer risks based on ingestion and dermal contact routes of exposure to residents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As a systematic fungicide, prochloraz is often used to control banana freckle disease, and it is significant to assess the safety and risk of prochloraz. METHODS The dissipation kinetics and distribution of prochloraz in bananas were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). RESULTS The results showed that the fortified recoveries in bananas were 83.01-99.12%, and the relative standard deviations (RSDs) were 2.45-7.84%. The half-life of prochloraz in banana peel (3.93-5.60 d) was significantly lower than it was in whole banana (8.25-10.80 d) and banana pulp (10.35-12.84 d). The terminal residue of prochloraz in banana fruits was below the maximum residue level (MRL, China) at pre-harvest intervals (PHI) of 21 d. Moreover, the residue of prochloraz in banana peel was always 1.06-7.71 times greater than it was in banana pulp. The dietary risk assessment results indicated that the prochloraz residue in bananas at PHI of 21 d was safe for representative populations. (4) Conclusions: We found that a 26.7% prochloraz emulsion oil in water (EW) diluted 1000-fold and sprayed three times under field conditions was safe and reliable, providing a reference for the safe application of prochloraz in bananas.

Abstract
Chlorfenapyr has been widely used in recent years to control a variety of pests on fruit and vegetables. Cabbage, leek, asparagus, and chive are four of the most common green foods consumed word wide; their pesticide residue issues have also received more attention. Therefore, studies on the residue analysis, degradation evaluation and dietary risk assessment based on the complete residue definition of chlorfenapyr on these four vegetables were essential and urgently needed. A reliable analytical method was developed and applied to simultaneously determine the content of chlorfenapyr and its metabolite tralopyril residues on the four vegetables. Recoveries were satisfactory (84%-110% for chlorfenapyr; 83%-106% for tralopyril) at a spiked level of 0.01-1 mg/kg, with intraday precision (n = 5) and interday precision (n = 15) ranging from 1.6% to 8.9% and from 2.4% to 9.1%, respectively. The limits of quantification (LOQs) were all 0.01 mg/kg. On the basis of supervised field trials, the degradation half-lives of chlorfenapyr were 1.2-9.8 days. Chlorfenapyr rapidly degraded on asparagus, but persisted much longer on chive. The terminal concentration of chlorfenapyr residues varied from <0.01 to 0.84 mg/kg. Additionally, the risk quotients (RQs) ranged from 4.7% to 13.8%, suggesting that chlorfenapyr had a negligible risk for chronic dietary intake of these crops. This study was thus significant in evaluating the degradation rate and quality safety of chlorfenapyr on various vegetables and promoted the development of maximum residue limits.

Abstract
Ginseng is a perennial herb with a long growth cycle and is known to easily accumulate pesticides during its growth process, seriously threatening people's health. Therefore, to ensure safe consumption, it is necessary to detect and monitor pesticide residues in ginseng. In this study, a novel analysis method was established for simultaneous determination of 31 pesticides in ginseng by high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Ginseng samples were extracted using acetonitrile, cleaned up by primary secondary amine (PSA) solid-phase extraction column eluted with acetonitrile-toluene, and then detected in multiple reaction mode (MRM). The calibration curves of target compounds were linear in the range of 0.005-1.0 mg/L, with correlation coefficients greater than 0.9921. The limits of detection of all the pesticides in ginseng were between 4.4×10-5 and 1.6 × 10-2 mg/kg. For fresh ginseng, the average recoveries ranged from 72.1 to 111.6%, and the relative standard deviations were 1.3-12.2%. For dry ginseng, the average recoveries were 74.3-108.3%, and the relative standard deviations were 0.9-14.9%. The residual concentrations of some pesticides in real samples were greater than the maximum residue limit (MRL) for European Union (EU). The method established here is rapid and simple with high sensitivity and good reproducibility, which is sensitive in the residue analysis of many pesticides in ginseng.

Abstract
Strawberries are widely cultivated and highly consumed globally, but pests and diseases can severely affect yields. Phenamacril and difenoconazole are high-efficacy pesticides and the mixture of these two pesticides offers a satisfactory option for disease control. In this study, an optimised QuEChERS method combined with dispersive solid-phase extraction purification before injection for simultaneously determining the residues of phenamacril-difenoconazole mixture on strawberries was developed and validated using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS). Average recoveries of phenamacril and difenoconazole in the strawberry matrices ranged from 100% to 104% and 99% to 104%, with relative standard deviations of 2.6%-5.3% and 2.2%-5.5%, respectively. The degradation half-lives of phenamacril and difenoconazole were 3.5-6.6 days and 2.2-3.4 days on strawberries, respectively. Final residues of phenamacril and difenoconazole on strawberries at eight different cultivation regions were 0.033-0.66 mg kg-1 and <0.02-0.089 mg kg-1 after spraying at the maximum dosage recommended by the company of 300 mg a.i. kg-1 twice, respectively. Overall, this study is the first report of phenamacril and difenoconazole residue analysis in strawberries. Therefore, it could provide the reference data for safe management and proper use of phenamacril and difenoconazole in China.
