Abstract
In recent decades, analytical techniques have increasingly focused on the precise quantification. Achieving this goal has been accomplished with conventional analytical approaches that typically require extensive pretreatment methods, significant reagent usage, and expensive instruments. The need for rapid, simple, and highly selective identification platforms has become increasingly pronounced. Molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) has emerged as a promising avenue for developing advanced sensors that can potentially surpass the limitations of conventional detection methods. In recent years, the application of MIP-silica materials-based sensors has garnered significant attention owing to their distinctive characteristics. These types of probes hold a distinct advantage in their remarkable stability and durability, all of which provide a suitable sensing platform in severe environments. Moreover, the substrate composed of silica materials offers a vast surface area for binding, thereby facilitating the efficient detection of even minuscule concentrations of targets. As a result, sensors based on MIP-silica materials have the potential to be widely applied in various industries, including medical diagnosis, and food safety. In the present review, we have conducted an in-depth analysis of the latest research developments in the field of MIPs-silica materials based sensors, with a focus on succinctly summarizing and elucidating the most crucial findings. This is the first comprehensive review of integration MIPs with silica materials in electrochemical (EC) and optical probes for biomedical analysis and food safety.

Hydrophilic molecularly imprinted lysozyme-BiOBr composite with enhanced visible light utilization for selective removal of trace contaminants in water. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 272:132910.

Abstract
The development of high-efficiency molecularly imprinted photocatalysts is still challenging due to the lack of hydrophilic and suitable functional monomers. In this work, the bio-sourced lysozyme was developed as the hydrophilic functional monomer, and Cu-doped BiOBr was used as the photocatalysts, to prepare a novel hydrophilic molecularly imprinted lysozyme-BiOBr composite (BiOBr-Cu/LyzMIP) with enhanced visible light utilization. Lysozyme could form a transparent layer to mitigate the light transmission obstruction caused by the surface imprinting layer, making it an ideal functional monomer. The prepared BiOBr-Cu/LyzMIP possessed red-shifted visible-light absorption edge and minor reduction of light absorbance, indicating the enhanced utilization of visible light. Accordingly, BiOBr-Cu/LyzMIP demonstrated excellent degradation rate (99.4 % in 20 min), exceptional degradation efficiency (0.211 min-1), and superior reusability. Moreover, BiOBr-Cu/LyzMIP exhibited rapid adsorption equilibrium (20 min), good imprinting factor (2.67), and favourable degradation selectivity (>1.75), indicating the good imprinting effect resulting from abundant functional groups of lysozyme. Versatility experiments on different templates suggested that the proposed approach allowed flexibility in selecting a wide range of hazardous contaminants according to practical requirements. The present work expands the application of lysozyme-based composites in the environmental field, and provides a new one-stop pathway for efficient and sustainable treatment of contaminated water.

Abstract
Mesotrione, topramezone, tembotrione, and sulcotrione are four types of 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxidase (HPPD) inhibitor herbicides that are extensively employed in agricultural practices, but their usage also leads to environmental pollution and poses risks to human health. A probe (E)-1-((2-(pyridin-2-yl) hydrazineylidene) methyl) naphthalen-2-ol (CHMN) based on chelation enhancement (CHEF) effect synthesized. CHMN was first chelated with Zn2+ to form a probe system with green, which can be further used to detect mesotrione, topramezone, tembotrione and sulcotrione in complicated environment. CHMN-Zn2+ detection of four pesticides was accurate, with an excellent linear relationship between 0 and 100 μM. The detection limits were LODmesotrione = 7.79 μM, LODtopramezone = 1.91 μM, LODtembotrione = 1.38 μM and LODsulcotrione = 2.43 μM. The detection time is 1 min, and it is successfully applied in real water sample and bioimaging. This work can provide a novel method for studying the migration and behavior of environmental pollutants.

Abstract
Gonyautoxins (GTXs), a group of potent neurotoxins belonging to paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs), are often associated with harmful algal blooms of toxic dinoflagellates in the sea and represent serious health and ecological concerns worldwide. In the study, a highly selective and sensitive fluorescence nanoprobe was constructed based on photoinduced electron transfer recognition mechanism to rapidly detect GTXs in seawater, using specific entrapment of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) combined with fluorescence analyses. The green emissive fluorescein isothiocyanate was grafted in a silicate matrix as a signal transducer and fluorescence intensity of the nanoprobe with a core-shell structure exhibited a strong enhancement due to efficient analyte blockage in a short response time. Under optimal conditions, the developed MIPs nanoprobe presented an excellent analytical performance for spiked seawater samples including a recovery from 94.44 % to 98.23 %, a linear range between 0.018 nmol L-1 and 0.36 nmol L-1, as well as good accuracy. Furthermore, the method had extremely high sensitivity, with limit of detection obtained as 0.005 nmol L-1 for GTXs and GTX2/3. Finally, the nanoprobe was applied for the determination of GTXs in seven natural seawater samples with GTXs mixture (0.035-0.058 nmol L-1) or single GTX2/3 (0.033-0.050 nmol L-1), and the results agreed well with those of a UPLC-MS/MS method. The findings of our study suggest that the constructed MIPs-based fluorescence enhancement nanoprobe was suitable for rapid, selective and ultrasensitive detection of GTXs, particular GTX2/3, in natural seawater samples.

Spatial distribution and ecological-health risks associated with herbicides in soils and crop kernels of the black soil region in China. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 908:168439.

Abstract
Herbicides are vital inputs for food production; however, their associated risks and hazards are pressing concerns. In black soil, the cumulative toxic effects of compound herbicides and potential risks to humans are not yet fully understood. Thus, this study conducted a comprehensive investigation to assess herbicide residue characteristics and the associated ecological health risks in representative black soil regions where major food crops (maize, soybean, and rice) are cultivated. Findings revealed that the soil harbored a collective presence of 29 herbicides, exhibiting total concentrations ranging from 111.92 to 996.14 μg/kg dry weight (dw). This can be attributed to the extensive use of herbicides over the years and their long half-lives, which results in the accumulation of multiple herbicide residues in the soil. Similarly, the total herbicide levels in maize, soybean, and rice kernels were 1173-61,564, 1721-9342, and 3775-8094 ng/kg dw, respectively. Multiple herbicide residues at all monitored sites were attributed to continuous crop barriers in soybean fields and the adoption of soybean and maize crop rotations. Notably, herbicides pose ecological risks in the black soil region, exhibiting high-risk levels of 79 %, 24 %, and 14 % at the sites monitored for oxyfluorfen, clomazone, and butachlor, respectively. Carcinogenic atrazine exhibited low- and medium-risk levels in 34 % and 63 % of soil samples, respectively. These results can serve as a scientific basis for establishing herbicide residue thresholds in agricultural soils within black soil areas and for implementing effective control measures to prevent herbicide contamination in agricultural ecosystems.

Abstract
Neonicotinoid insecticides (NEOs) are a new class of neurotoxic pesticides primarily used for pest control on fruits and vegetables, cereals, and other crops after organophosphorus pesticides (OPPs), carbamate pesticides (CBPs), and pyrethroid pesticides. However, chronic abuse and illegal use have led to the contamination of food and water sources as well as damage to ecological and environmental systems. Long-term exposure to NEOs may pose potential risks to animals (especially bees) and even human health. Consequently, it is necessary to develop effective, robust, and rapid methods for NEOs detection. Specific recognition-based chemical sensing has been regarded as one of the most promising detection tools for NEOs due to their excellent selectivity, sensitivity, and robust interference resistance. In this review, we introduce the novel recognition strategies-enabled chemical sensing in food neonicotinoids detection in the past years (2017-2023). The properties and advantages of molecular imprinting recognition (MIR), host-guest recognition (HGR), electron-catalyzed recognition (ECR), immune recognition (IR), aptamer recognition (AR), and enzyme inhibition recognition (EIR) in the development of NEOs sensing platforms are discussed in detail. Recent applications of chemical sensing platforms in various food products, including fruits and vegetables, cereals, teas, honey, aquatic products, and others are highlighted. In addition, the future trends of applying chemical sensing with specific recognition strategies for NEOs analysis are discussed.

Abstract
Neonicotinoids such as thiamethoxam (TMX) were widely used in agricultural production and tended to accumulate in the environment, potentially harming human and ecosystem health. To enable widespread monitoring of TMX residues, it was essential to design a reliable and sensitive detection method. Here, we developed a novel smartphone-enablled molecularly imprinted ratiometric fluorescence sensing system for selective on-site detection of TMX. It was based on blue-emission carbon dots (CDs) wrapped with a molecularly imprinted layer (B-CDs@MIPs), which provided the response signal, while red-emission CDs (R-CDs) served as an internal reference. The fluorescence signal ratio of the sensor increased with the TMX concentration, resulting in an obvious fluorescence color change from red to blue. The sensor exhibited a satisfactory limit of detection (LOD) of 13.5 nM in fluorescence analysis while LOD of 70.1 nM in visual determination. In addition, the sensing system was validated using food and environment samples, exhibiting recoveries from 91.40% to 105.7%, indicating excellent reliability for TMX detection in actual samples. Thus, the sensing system developed in this study offered promising prospects for visual detection of pesticide residues in complex environmental samples.

Abstract
A novel molecular-imprinted polymer (MIP)-based enzyme-free biosensor was created for the selective detection of glycoprotein transferrin (Trf). For this purpose, MIP-based biosensor for Trf was prepared by electrochemical co-polymerization of novel hybrid monomers 3-aminophenylboronic acid (M-APBA) and pyrrole on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (cMWCNTs). Hybrid epitopes of Trf (C-terminal fragment and glycan) have been selected as templates. The produced sensor exhibited great selective recognition ability toward Trf under optimal preparation conditions, offering good analytical range (0.125-1.25 μM) with a detection limit of 0.024 μM. The proposed hybrid epitope in combination with hybrid monomer-mediated imprinting strategy was successfully applied to detect Trf in spiked human serum samples, with recoveries and relative standard deviations ranging from 94.7 to 106.0% and 2.64 to 5.32%, respectively. This study provided a reliable protocol for preparing hybrid epitopes and monomers-mediated MIP for the synergistic and effective determination of glycoprotein in complicated biological samples.

Abstract
The establishment of a fluorescence sensing system for sensitive and selective visual detection of trace antibiotics is of great significance to food safety and human health risk assessment. A simple and rapid one-pot strategy was developed successfully to synthesize a down/up-conversion dual-excitation multi-emission fluorescence imprinted sensor for dual-channel thiamphenicol (TAP) detection. In this strategy, the metal-organic frameworks were in situ incorporated into the fluorescence imprinted sensor, guiding the coordination induced emission of abiotic carbon dots and signal-amplification effect of fluorescence sensing. Under dual-excitation (370 nm and 780 nm), the fluorescence imprinted sensor exhibited a dual-channel fluorescence response toward TAP with two-part linear ranges of 5.0 nM-6.0 μM and 6.0 μM-26.0 μM. Significantly, the fluorescence color ranged from blue to purple to red can be observed with the naked eye. The results of the dual-channel TAP determination in actual samples by the fluorescence imprinted sensor indicated that the fluorescence imprinted sensor provided a sensitive, selective, and multiplexed visual detection of TAP in complex sample.

[PMID: 35683700 PMCID: PMC9182308 DOI: 10.3390/nano12111845] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2022] [Revised: 05/24/2022] [Accepted: 05/25/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022]
Abstract
Sample pretreatment in analytical chemistry is critical, and the selection of materials for sample pretreatment is a key factor for high enrichment ability, good practicality, and satisfactory recoveries. In this review, the recent progress of the sample pretreatment methods based on various nanomaterials (i.e., carbon nanomaterials, porous nanomaterials, and magnetic nanomaterials) with excellent adsorption efficiency, selectivity, and reproducibility, as well as their applications, are presented. Due to the unique nanoscale physical–chemical properties, magnetic nanomaterials have been used for the extraction of target analytes by easy-to-handle magnetic separation under a magnetic field, which can avoid cumbersome centrifugation and filtration steps. This review also highlights the preparation process and reaction mechanism of nanomaterials used in the sample pretreatment methods, which have been applied for the extraction organophosphorus pesticides, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, phenoxy carboxylic acids, tetracycline antibiotics, hazardous metal ions, and rosmarinic acid. In addition, the remaining challenges and future directions for nanomaterials used as sorbents in the sample pretreatment are discussed.
