Abstract
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) have been widely studied in environmental protection and food industry, owing to their excellent specific recognition and structural stability. However, MIPs prepared by conventional methods suffer from low adsorption capacity and slow mass transfer rate. To date, the combination of electrostatic spinning technology and molecular imprinting technology has been proposed to prepare molecularly imprinted membranes (MIMs) with specific recognition capability, and has shown great attraction in the separation and detection of food additives, as well as the extraction and release of active ingredients. In recent years, MIPs and electrostatic spinning technologies have been investigated and evaluated. However, there is no review of electrostatically spun MIMs for food field. In this review, we focus on the fabrication methods and applications of electrostatically spun MIMs in the food, discuss the challenges in practical food applications, and emphasize the promising applications of electrostatically spun MIMs in food field.

Prospects and challenges of nanopesticides in advancing pest management for sustainable agricultural and environmental service. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 261:119722. [PMID: 39098710 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.119722] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2024] [Revised: 07/27/2024] [Accepted: 07/31/2024] [Indexed: 08/06/2024]
Abstract
The expanding global population and the use of conventional agrochemical pesticides have led to the loss of crop yield and food shortages. Excessive pesticide used in agriculture risks life forms by contaminating soil and water resources, necessitating the use of nano agrochemicals. This article focuses on synthesis moiety and use of nanopesticides for enhanced stability, controlled release mechanisms, improved efficacy, and reduced pesticide residue levels. The current literature survey offered regulatory frameworks for commercial deployment of nanopesticides and evaluated societal and environmental impacts. Various physicochemical and biological processes, especially microorganisms and advanced oxidation techniques are important in treating pesticide residues through degradation mechanisms. Agricultural waste could be converted into nanofibers for sustainable composites production, new nanocatalysts, such as N-doped TiO2 and bimetallic nanoparticles for advancing pesticide degradation. Microbial and enzyme methods have been listed as emerging nanobiotechnology tools in achieving a significant reduction of chlorpyrifos and dimethomorph for the management of pesticide residues in agriculture. Moreover, cutting-edge biotechnological alternatives to conventional pesticides are advocated for promoting a transition towards more sustainable pest control methodologies. Application of nanopesticides could be critical in addressing environmental concern due to its increased mobility, prolonged persistence and ecosystem toxicity. Green synthesis of nanopesticides offers solutions to environmental risks associated and using genetic engineering techniques may induce pest and disease resistance for agricultural sustainability. Production of nanopesticides from biological sources is necessary to develop and implement comprehensive strategies to uphold agricultural productivity while safeguarding environmental integrity.

Abstract
Microalgae-assisted bioremediation, enriched by nanomaterial integration, offers a sustainable approach to environmental pollution mitigation while harnessing microalgae's potential as a biocatalyst and biorefinery resource. This strategy explores the interaction between microalgae, nanomaterials, and bioremediation, advancing sustainability objectives. The potent combination of microalgae and nanomaterials highlights the biorefinery's promise in effective pollutant removal and valuable algal byproduct production. Various nanomaterials, including metallic nanoparticles and semiconductor quantum dots, are reviewed for their roles in inorganic and organic pollutant removal and enhancement of microalgae growth. Limited studies have been conducted to establish nanomaterial's (CeO2, ZnO, Fe3O4, Al2O3, etc.) role on microalgae in pollution remediation; most studies cover inorganic pollutants (heavy metals and nutrients) remediation, exhibited 50-300% bioremediation efficiency improvement; however, some studies cover antibiotics and toxic dyes removal efficiency with 19-95% improvement. These aspects unveil the complex mechanisms underlying nanomaterial-pollutant-microalgae interactions, focusing on adsorption, photocatalysis, and quantum dot properties. Strategies to enhance bioremediation efficiency are discussed, including pollutant uptake improvement, real-time control, tailored nanomaterial design, and nutrient recovery. The review assesses recent advancements, navigates challenges, and envisions a sustainable future for bioremediation, underlining the transformative capacity of nanomaterial-driven microalgae-assisted bioremediation. This work aligns with Sustainable Development Goals 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation) and 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production) by exploring nanomaterial-enhanced microalgae bioremediation for sustainable pollution management and resource utilization.

Abstract
Lignin-based microcapsules are extremely attractive for their biodegradability and photolysis resistance. However, the water-soluble all-lignin shells were unsatisfactory in terms of rainfall and foliar retention, and lacked the test of agricultural production practices. Herein, a novel microcapsule based on a flexible skeleton formed by interfacial polymerization and absorbed with lignin particles (LPMCs) was prepared in this study. Further analysis demonstrated that the shell was formed by cross-linking the two materials in layers and showed excellent flexibility and photolysis resistance. The pesticide loaded LPMCs showed about 98.68 % and 73.00 % improvement in scour resistance and photolysis resistance, respectively, as compared to the bare active ingredient. The foliar retention performance of LPMCs was tested in peanut plantations during the rainy season. LPMCs loaded with pyraclostrobin (Pyr) and tebuconazole (Teb) exhibited the best foliar disease control and optimum plant architecture, resulting in an increase in yield of about 5.36 %. LPMCs have a promising application prospect in the efficient pesticide utilization, by controlling its deformation, adhesion and release, an effective strategy for controlling diseases and managing plant growth was developed.

Abstract
All pests can be eliminated with the help of pesticides, which can be either natural or synthetic. Because of the excessive use of pesticides, it is harmful to both ecology and people's health. Pesticides are categorised according to several criteria: their chemical composition, method of action, effects, timing of use, source of manufacture, and formulations. Many aquatic animals, birds, and critters live in danger owing to hazardous pesticides. Metaldehyde is available in various forms and causes significant impact even when small amounts are ingested. Metaldehyde can harm wildlife, including dogs, cats, and birds. This review discusses pesticides, their types and potential environmental issues, and metaldehyde's long-term effects. In addition, it examines ways to eliminate metaldehyde from the aquatic ecosystem before concluding by anticipating how pesticides may affect society. The metal-organic framework and other biosorbents have been appropriately synthesized and subsequently represent the amazing removal of pesticides from effluent as an enhanced adsorbent, such as magnetic nano adsorbents. A revision of the risk assessment for metaldehyde residuals in aqueous sources is also attempted.

Abstract
Drought is one of the main abiotic factors affecting global agricultural productivity. However, the application of bioinocula containing plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) has been seen as a potential environmentally friendly technology for increasing plants' resistance to water stress. In this study, rhizobacteria strains were isolated from maize (Zea mays L.) and subjected to drought tolerance tests at varying concentrations using polyethylene glycol (PEG)-8000 and screened for plant-growth-promoting activities. From this study, 11 bacterial isolates were characterized and identified molecularly, which include Bacillus licheniformis A5-1, Aeromonas caviae A1-2, A. veronii C7_8, B. cereus B8-3, P. endophytica A10-11, B. halotolerans A9-10, B. licheniformis B9-5, B. simplex B15-6, Priestia flexa B12-4, Priestia flexa C6-7, and Priestia aryabhattai C1-9. All isolates were positive for indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), siderophore, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase, ammonia production, nitrogen fixation, and phosphate solubilization, but negative for hydrogen cyanide production. Aeromonas strains A1-2 and C7_8, showing the highest drought tolerance of 0.71 and 0.77, respectively, were selected for bioinoculation, singularly and combined. An increase in the above- and below-ground biomass of the maize plants at 100, 50, and 25% water-holding capacity (WHC) was recorded. Bacterial inoculants, which showed an increase in the aerial biomass of plants subjected to moderate water deficiency by up to 89%, suggested that they can be suitable candidates to enhance drought tolerance and nutrient acquisition and mitigate the impacts of water stress on plants.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the hepatotoxic effects of trichlorfon on crucian carp (Carassius carassius) and the attenuating effects of a synbiotic combination of Cetobacterium somerae and Astragalus polysaccharide on hepatotoxicity. Results showed that trichlorfon did indeed induce hepatotoxicity in crucian carp and the synbiotic reversed this hepatotoxicity caused by trichlorfon. The synbiotic increased TC, TG, LDL-C, ALT and AST levels and decreased serum HDL-C levels caused by trichlorfon. H&E and Oil Red O staining demonstrated that the synbiotic ameliorated liver damage and abnormal lipid accumulation. The activity of antioxidant enzymes (T-SOD, CAT, GSH-Px) in the liver was also enhanced by the administration of the synbiotic. The supplementation of the synbiotic also increased the level of short-chain fatty acids in the intestine. In addition, the synbiotic balanced the gut microbial composition, leading to a reduction in the abundance of potentially pathogenic bacteria and an increase in the abundance of bacteria producing short-chain fatty acids. In conclusion, these findings indicate that trichlorfon can induce hepatotoxicity in crucian carp, whereas synbiotics can regulate gut microbiota, promote the growth of beneficial bacteria and increase the production of SCFAs, and alleviate trichlorfon-induced liver injury.

Abstract
In this study, an analytical method was developed and validated for the assessment of pesticide residues in commonly consumed vegetables and fruits. Fresh samples of apple, green peas, tomatoes, and cucumbers were processed and subjected to analysis using a modified QuEChERS (quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, safe) extraction technique. Subsequently, quantification of pesticide residues was conducted utilizing gas chromatography (GC)-electron capture detector. Extraction and cleanup parameters were meticulously optimized, resulting in a modification of the original QuEChERS method. This modification aimed to reduce solvent consumption, making the study more environmentally friendly. The developed method was validated in terms of selectivity, specificity, linearity, precision, and accuracy by following the SANTE guidelines. Calibration curves showed good linearity (r > 0.99) within the test range. Precision was evaluated by intra- and inter-day experiments with an acceptable relative standard deviation (<20.0%). Recovery was assessed at the limit of quantification level and was observed to fall within the range of 70%-120%, with relative standard deviations below 5.45%. The validated method presented here can be applied to analyze pesticide residues in various other vegetables, fruits, and cereals. It is essential for ongoing monitoring of pesticide residues to ensure public safety.

Abstract
It is very important to evaluate the immunotoxicity and molecular mechanisms of pesticides. In this study, difenoconazole and chlorothalonil were evaluated for immunotoxicity by using the human Jurkat T-cell line, and the EC50 were 24.66 and 1.17 mg/L, respectively. The joint exposure of difenoconazole and chlorothalonil showed a synergistic effect at low concentrations (lower than 10.58 mg/L) but an antagonistic effect at high concentrations (higher than 10.58 mg/L). With joint exposure at a concentration of EC10, the proportion of late apoptotic cells was 2.26- and 2.91-fold higher than that with exposure to difenoconazole or chlorothalonil alone, respectively. A transcriptomics analysis indicated that the DEGs for single exposure are associated with immunodeficiency disease. Single exposure to chlorothalonil was mainly involved in cation transportation, extracellular matrix organization, and leukocyte cell adhesion. Single exposure to difenoconazole was mainly involved in nervous system development, muscle contraction, and immune system processes. However, when the joint exposure dose was EC10, the DEGs were mainly involved in the formation of cell structures, but the DEGs were mainly involved in cellular processes and metabolism when the joint exposure dose was EC25. The results indicated that the immunotoxicological mechanisms underlying joint exposure to difenoconazole and chlorothalonil are different under low and high doses.

Abstract
The main component of chocolate, cocoa (Theobroma cacao), is a significant commercial agricultural plant that directly sustains the livelihoods of an estimated forty to fifty million people. The economies of many cocoa producing nations, particularly those in the developing world, are supported by cocoa export revenue. To ensure satisfactory yields, however, the plant is usually intensely treated with pesticides because it is vulnerable to disease and pest attacks. Even though pesticides help protect the cocoa plant, unintended environmental contamination is also likely. Honey, produced from nectar obtained by honeybees from flowers while foraging, can serve as a good indicator for the level of pesticide residues and environmental pesticide build-up in landscapes. Here, we use a systematic literature review to quantify the extent of research on residues of pesticides used in cocoa cultivation in honey. In 81% of the 104 studies examined for this analysis, 169 distinct compounds were detected. Imidacloprid was the most frequently detected pesticide, making neonicotinoids the most frequently found class of pesticides overall. However, in cocoa producing countries, organophosphates, organochlorines, and pyrethroids were the most frequently detected pesticides. Interestingly, only 19% of studies were carried out in cocoa producing countries. We recommend prioritizing more research in the countries that produce cocoa to help to understand the potential impact of pesticide residues linked with cocoa cultivation in honey and the environment more generally to inform better pesticide usage, human health, and environmental policies.

Abstract
In the present study, Ni-UiO-66 was synthesized to improve the adsorption efficiency of tetracycline (TC) in wastewater treatment. To this end, nickel doping was performed in the preparation process of UiO-66. The synthesized Ni-UiO-66 was characterized by XRD, SEM and EDS, BET, FTIR, TGA, and XPS for obtaining the lattice structure, surface topography, specific surface area, surface functional groups, and thermostability. More specifically, Ni-UiO-66 has a removal efficiency and adsorption capacity of up to 90% and 120 mg g-1, respectively, when used to treat TC. The presence of ions HCO3-, SO42-, NO3- and PO43- slightly affects the TC adsorption. A 20 mg L-1 humic acid reduces the removal efficiency from 80% to 60%. The performed analyses revealed that Ni-UiO-66 had similar adsorption capacity in wastewater with different ion strengths. The variation of adsorption capacity with the adsorption time was fitted using a pseudo-second-order kinetic equation. Meanwhile, it is found that the adsorption reaction occurs only on the monolayer of the UiO-66 surface so the adsorption process can be simulated using the Langmuir isotherm model. The thermodynamic analysis indicates that the adsorption of TC is an endothermic reaction. Electrostatic attraction, hydrogen-bond interaction, and π-π interaction might be the main reasons for the adsorption. The synthesized Ni-UiO-66 has well adsorption capacity and stable structure. Accordingly, it is expected to achieve a good prospect in industrial applications and wastewater treatment plants.

Abstract
Pesticides play a critical role in terms of agricultural output nowadays. On top of that, pesticides provide economic support to our farmers. However, the usage of pesticides has created a public health issue and environmental hazard. Chlorpyrifos (CPY), an organophosphate pesticide, is extensively applied as an insecticide, acaricide, and termiticide against pests in various applications. Environmental pollution has occurred because of the widespread usage of CPY, harming several ecosystems, including soil, sediment, water, air, and biogeochemical cycles. While residual levels in soil, water, vegetables, foodstuffs, and human fluids have been discovered, CPY has also been found in the sediment, soil, and water. The irrefutable pieces of evidence indicate that CPY exposure inhibits the choline esterase enzyme, which impairs the ability of the body to use choline. As a result, neurological, immunological, and psychological consequences are seen in people and the natural environment. Several research studies have been conducted worldwide to identify and develop CPY remediation approaches and its derivatives from the environment. Currently, many detoxification methods are available for pesticides, such as CPY. However, recent research has shown that the breakdown of CPY using bacteria is the most proficient, cost-effective, and sustainable. This current article aims to outline relevant research events, summarize the possible breakdown of CPY into various compounds, and discuss analytical summaries of current research findings on bacterial degradation of CPY and the potential degradation mechanism.

Abstract
Photoactivated pesticides have many advantages, such as high activity, low toxicity, and no drug resistance. However, poor photostability and a low utilization rate limit their practical application. Herein, the photosensitizer hematoporphyrin (HP) was used as a photoactivated pesticide, covalently linked with pectin (PEC) via ester bonds, to prepare an amphiphilic polymer pro-bactericide, and subsequently self-assembled in aqueous solutions to obtain an esterase-triggered nanobactericide delivery system. The fluorescence quenching effect due to the aggregation of HP in nanoparticles (NPs) enabled the inhibition of photodegradation of HP in this system. Esterase stimulation could trigger HP release and increase its photodynamic activity. Antibacterial assays have shown that the NPs had potent antibacterial capacity, almost completely inactivating bacteria after 60 min of exposure to light. The NPs had good adherence to the leaves. Safety assessment indicated that the NPs have no obvious toxic effects on plants. Antibacterial studies on plants have shown that the NPs have excellent antibacterial effects on infected plants. These results provide a new strategy for obtaining a photoactivated bactericide nanosystem with a high utilization rate and good photostability and targeting ability.

Abstract
The metabolites of pesticides usually require rational risk assessment. In the present study, the metabolites of tolfenpyrad (TFP) in tea plants were identified using UPLC-QToF/MS analysis, and the transfer of TFP and its metabolites from tea bushes to consumption was studied for a comprehensive risk assessment. Four metabolites, PT-CA, PT-OH, OH-T-CA, and CA-T-CA, were identified, and PT-CA and PT-OH were detected along with dissipation of the parent TFP under field conditions. During processing, 3.11-50.00 % of TFP was further eliminated. Both PT-CA and PT-OH presented a downward trend (7.97-57.89 %) during green tea processing but an upward trend (34.48-124.17 %) during black tea manufacturing. The leaching rate (LR) of PT-CA (63.04-101.03 %) from dry tea to infusion was much higher than that of TFP (3.06-6.14 %). As PT-OH was no longer detected in tea infusions after 1 d of TFP application, TFP and PT-CA were taken into account in the comprehensive risk assessment. The risk quotient (RQ) assessment indicated a negligible health risk, but PT-CA posed a greater potential risk than TFP to tea consumers. Therefore, this study provides guidance for rational TFP application and suggests the sum of TFP and PT-CA residues as the maximum residual limit (MRL) in tea.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hormesis is a common phenomenon in toxicology described as low-dose stimulation due to a toxin which causes inhibition at a high dose. Pesticide hormesis in plants has attracted considerable research interest in recent years; however, the specific mechanism has not yet been clarified. Acephate is an organophosphorus insecticide that is used worldwide. Here, hormesis in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) plant growth and photosynthesis after acephate exposure is confirmed, as stimulation occurred at low stress levels, whereas inhibition occurred after exposure to high concentrations. RESULTS We found that low acephate concentration (5-fold lower than recommended application dosage) could enhance chlorophyll biosynthesis and stimulate photosynthesis effects, and thus improve S. lycopersicum growth. A high level of acephate (5-fold higher than recommended application dosage) stress inhibited chlorophyll accumulation, decreased photosystem II efficiency and blocked antioxidant reactions in leaves, increasing reactive oxygen species levels and damaging plant growth. Transcriptomic analysis and quantitative real-time PCR results revealed that the photosynthesis - antenna proteins pathway played a crucial role in the hormesis effect, and that LHCB7 as well as LHCP from the pathway were the most sensitive to acephate hormesis. CONCLUSION Our results showed that acephate could induce hormesis in tomato plant growth and photosynthesis, and that photosystem II and the photosynthesis - antenna proteins pathway played important roles in hormesis. These results provide novel insights into the scientific and safe application of chemical pesticides, and new guidance for investigation into utilizing pesticide hormesis in agriculture. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Inefficient usage, overdose, and post-application losses of conventional pesticides have resulted in severe ecological and environmental issues, such as pesticide resistance, environmental contamination, and soil degradation. Advances in nano-based smart formulations are promising novel methods to decrease the hazardous impacts of pesticide on the environment. In light of the lack of a systematic and critical summary of these aspects, this work has been structured to critically assess the roles and specific mechanisms of smart nanoformulations (NFs) in mitigating the adverse impacts of pesticide on the environment, along with an evaluation of their final environmental fate, safety, and application prospects. Our study provides a novel perspective for a better understanding of the potential functions of smart NFs in reducing environmental pollution. Additionally, this study offers meaningful information for the safe and effective use of these nanoproducts in field applications in the near future.

Abstract
A modified QuEChERS pretreatment method and LC-MS/MS technique were performed to simultaneously determine four pesticide (Hexachlorophene, Dinex, Dinosam, Dinoterb) residues in agricultural products. Through the optimization of LC-MS/MS detection parameters in SIM mode, the optimal instrument conditions are obtained. The modified QuEChERS method was used to pretreat the samples. Solid phase extractants PSA, C18 and GCB were used for sample purification. The research results showed that the correlation coefficients of the four pesticides were all greater than 0.991, which had a good linear relationship. The limits of quantitation (LOQ) of the four pesticides were 0.05-0.56 μg/kg. The recoveries were 70.51-113.20% with relative standard deviations (RSDS) of 1.6-11.2%. The developed method can provide reliable data support for the subsequent simultaneous detection of these four pesticides.

Plant-soil-microbes: A tripartite interaction for nutrient acquisition and better plant growth for sustainable agricultural practices. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2022; 214:113821. [PMID: 35810815 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2022.113821] [Citation(s) in RCA: 59] [Impact Index Per Article: 29.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2022] [Revised: 06/24/2022] [Accepted: 07/01/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Plants can achieve their proper growth and development with the help of microorganisms associated with them. Plant-associated microbes convert the unavailable nutrients to available form and make them useful for plants. Besides nutrient acquisition, soil microbes also inhibit the pathogens that cause harm to plant growth and induces defense response. Due to the beneficial activities of soil nutrient-microbe-plant interactions, it is necessary to study more on this topic and develop microbial inoculant technology in the agricultural field for better crop improvement. The soil microbes can be engineered, and plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) and plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) technology can be developed as well, as its application can be improved for utilization as biofertilizer, biopesticides, etc., instead of using harmful chemical biofertilizers. Moreover, plant growth-promoting microbe inoculants can enhance crop productivity. Although, scientists have discussed several tools and techniques by omics and gene editing approaches for crop improvement to avoid biotic and abiotic stress and make the plant healthier and more nutritive. However, beneficial soil microbes that help plants with the nutrient acquisition, development, and stress resistance were ignored, and farmers started utilizing chemical fertilizers. Thus, this review attempts to summarize the interaction system of plant microbes, the role of beneficiary soil microbes in the rhizosphere zone, and their role in plant health promotion, particularly in the nutrition acquisition of the plant. The review will also provide a better understanding of soil microbes that can be exploited as biofertilizers and plant growth promoters in the field to create environmentally friendly, sustainable agriculture systems.

Pectin functionalized metal-organic frameworks as dual-stimuli-responsive carriers to improve the pesticide targeting and reduce environmental risks. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2022; 219:112796. [PMID: 36063717 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2022.112796] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2022] [Revised: 08/12/2022] [Accepted: 08/21/2022] [Indexed: 01/21/2023]
Abstract
Encapsulation of active ingredients into intelligent response controlled release carriers has been recognized as a promising approach to enhance the utilization efficiency and reduce the environmental risks of pesticides. In this work, an intelligent redox and pectinase dual stimuli-responsive pesticide delivery system was constructed by bonding pectin with metal-organic frameworks (FeMOF nanoparticles) which were loaded with pyraclostrobin (PYR@FeMOF-pectin nanoparticles). The successful fabrication of PYR@FeMOF-pectin nanoparticles was proved by a series of physicochemical characterizations. The results indicated that the loading capacity of PYR@FeMOF-pectin nanoparticles for pyraclostrobin was approximately 20.6%. The pectin covered on the surface of PYR@FeMOF nanoparticles could protect pyraclostrobin from photolysis and improve their spreadability on rice blades effectively. Different biological stimuli associated with Magnaporthe oryzae could trigger the release of pyraclostrobin from the pesticide-loaded core-shell nanoparticles, resulting in the death of pathogens. The bioactivity survey determined that PYR@FeMOF-pectin nanoparticles had a superior fungicidal activity and a longer duration against Magnaporthe oryzae than pyraclostrobin suspension concentrate. In addition, the FeMOF-pectin nanocarriers showed no obvious phytotoxicity and could enhance the shoot length and root length of rice plants. More importantly, PYR@FeMOF-pectin nanoparticles had an 8-fold reduction in acute toxicity to zebrafish than that of pyraclostrobin suspension concentrate. Therefore, the dual-responsive FeMOF-pectin nanocarriers have great potential for realizing site-specific pesticide delivery and promoting plant growth.

Abstract
With the rapid growth in global food production, delivery, and consumption, reformative food analytical techniques are required to satisfy the monitoring requirements of speed and high sensitivity. Nanozyme-encoded luminescent detections (NLDs) integrating nanozyme-based rapid detections with luminescent output signals have emerged as powerful methods for food safety monitoring, not only because of their preeminent performance in analysis, such as rapid, facile, low background signal, and ultrasensitive, but also due to their strong attractiveness for future sensing research. However, the lack of a full understanding of the fundamentals of NLDs for food safety detection technologies limits their further application. In this review, a systematic overview of the mechanisms of NLDs and their applications in the food industry is summarized, which covers the nanozyme-mimicking types and their luminescent signal generation mechanisms, as well as their applications in monitoring common foodborne contaminants. As demonstrated by previous studies, NLDs are bridging the gap to practical-oriented food analytical technologies and various opportunities to improve their food analytical performance to be considered in the future are proposed.

Abstract
The rapid growth of the industrial sector has expedited the accumulation of heavy metal(loid)s in the environment at hazardous levels. The elements such as arsenic, lead, mercury, cadmium and chromium are lethal in terms of toxicity with severe health impacts. With issues like water scarcity, limitations in wastewater treatment, and costs pertaining to detection in environmental matrices; their rapid and selective detection for reuse of effluents is of the utmost priority. Biosensors are the futuristic tool for the accurate qualitative and quantitative analysis of a specific analyte and integrate biotechnology, microelectronics and nanotechnology to fabricate a miniaturized device without compromising the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy. The characteristic features of supporting matrix largely affect the biosensing ability of the device and incorporation of highly sensitive and durable metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are reported to enhance the efficiency of advanced biosensors. Electrochemical biosensors are among the most widely developed biosensors for the detection of heavy metal(loids), while direct electron transfer approach from the recognition element to the electrode has been found to decrease the chances of interference. This review provides an insight into the recent progress in biosensor technologies for the detection of prevalent heavy metal(loid)s; using advanced support systems such as functional metal-based nanomaterials, carbon nanotubes, quantum dots, screen printed electrodes, glass beads etc. The review also delves critically in comparison of various techno-economic studies and the latest advances in biosensor technology.

Abstract
Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) have been identified as emerging contaminants, which poses a great threat to human health and ecosystem. Pesticides, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, dioxins, brominated flame retardants, steroid hormones and alkylphenols are representative of this type of contaminant, which are closely related to daily life. Unfortunately, many wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) do not treat EDCs as targets in the normal treatment process, resulting in EDCs entering the environment. Few studies have systematically reviewed the related content of EDCs in terms of occurrence, harm and remediation. For this reason, in this article, the sources and exposure routes of common EDCs are systematically described. The existence of EDCs in the environment is mainly related to human activities (Wastewater discharges and industrial activities). The common hazards of these EDCs are clarified based on available toxicological data. At the same time, the mechanism and effect of some mainstream EDCs remediation technologies (such as adsorption, advanced oxidation, membrane bioreactor, constructed wetland, etc.) are separately mentioned. Moreover, our perspectives are provided for further research of EDCs.

Abstract
The supervised field trials were conducted in maize crops using nano-microemulsion (NM) and a commercial formulation of indoxacarb and lufenuron to evaluate the effect of nano-formulation on the dissipation pattern. A modified QuEChERS (Quick Easy Cheap Effective Rugged and Safe)-UPLC-MS/MS (ultra-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry) method was utilized for sample analysis. Results showed that the initial deposits of indoxacarb and lufenuron in plants using nano-microemulsion were 0.98 mg/kg and 8.18 mg/kg at recommended dosage, while using the commercial formulation, they were 0.85 mg/kg and 5.53 mg/kg, respectively. Moreover, half-life (t1/2) values of using nano-microemulsion were 1.25 days and 2.51 days, which were shorter than indoxacarb (1.87 days) and lufenuron (3.00 days) from the commercial formulation, suggesting that pesticide formulations have a moderate impact on the initial deposit and dissipation rate. The terminal residue test showed that indoxacarb and lufenuron residues in maize grain and maize straw were below the available maximum residue limit (MRL, 0.01 mg/kg), suggesting 2% indoxacarb NM and 5% lufenuron NM are safe to use under the recommended dosage. The risk quotient value (RQ of indoxacarb and lufenuron equal to 17.7% and 2.4%, respectively) also revealed an acceptable risk for human consumption. These findings provide scientific evidence of the proper application of 2% indoxacarb NM and 5% lufenuron NM on maize crops.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Developing pesticide-controlled release formulations with foliage adhesion has become the focus of current research in the field of crop protection. In this study, an excellent adhesive nanocapsule loaded with emamectin benzoate (Eb@PDA) was prepared via emulsion interfacial polymerization based on the self-polymerization ability and adhesion properties of polydopamine (PDA). RESULTS The physicochemical properties of the Eb@PDA were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, particle size statistics, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The Eb@PDA presented a regular spherical shape, with an average particle size of 163.8 nm. Compared with conventional formulations, it had higher pesticide-loading content (34%) and excellent adhesion onto corn leaf. In addition, Eb@PDA showed sustained-release characteristics, facilitating the release of Eb at low pH and high temperature. Eb@PDA could effectively protect Eb against photodegradation and had a longer effective period for controlling Spodoptera frugiperda and Spodoptera exigua. Furthermore, acute toxicity tests showed that the 50% lethal concentration (LC50 ) was 80.91 and 57.91 mg kg-1 at 7 and 14 days, respectively, indicating a lower toxicity of the Eb@PDA to earthworms. The cells (L02) treated with Eb@PDA showed a higher cell viability but a lower apoptosis rate (only 5.75%), demonstrating the lower cytotoxicity of the Eb@PDA. CONCLUSION The self-prepared Eb@PDA could be used as a formulation with the advantages of slow release, UV shielding, strong leaf adhesion, superior insecticidal properties, sustained effectiveness and biosafety. It will also facilitate the development of an efficient and safe pesticide delivery system. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Plant biotic or abiotic stresses, such as pathogens, mechanical damage, or high temperature, can increase intracellular H2O2 concentration, damaging proteins, lipids, and DNA. Most current H2O2 detection methods require the separation or grinding of plant samples, inducing plant stresses, and the process is complicated and time-consuming. This paper constructed a metal-organic framework (MOF)-based biosensor for real-time, remote, and in situ detection of exogenous/endogenous H2O2 in plant organs through color-to-thermal signal conversion. By simply spraying horseradish peroxidase, 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), and the precursor of zeolite imidazolate frameworks-8 (ZIF-8), ZIF-8 biosensors were formed in situ on a plant root, petiole, or leaf. This biosensor could report sub-micromolar H2O2 in plants since the oxidation products, ABTS• +, emitted heat when they absorbed energy from near-infrared (NIR) light. Due to the plant's low absorption in the NIR region, the ZIF-8 biosensor allowed for remote thermal sensing of H2O2 transport or biotic/abiotic stresses in plants with a high signal-to-noise ratio combining NIR laser and thermometer. Our biosensor can be used for the future development of plant sensors for monitoring plant signaling pathways and metabolism that are nondestructive, minimally invasive, and capable of real-time, in situ analysis.

[PMID: 36014750 PMCID: PMC9414849 DOI: 10.3390/nano12162885] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2022] [Revised: 08/12/2022] [Accepted: 08/19/2022] [Indexed: 05/03/2023]
Abstract
Currently, environmental-responsive pesticide delivery systems have become an essential way to improve the effective utilization of pesticides. In this paper, by using hollow mesoporous silica (HMS) as a nanocarrier and TA-Cu metal-phenolic networks as a capping agent, a pH-responsive controlled release nano-formulation loaded with prochloraz (Pro@HMS-TA-Cu) was constructed. The structure and properties of Pro@HMS-TA-Cu were adequately characterised and analysed. The results showed that the loading content of Pro@HMS-TA-Cu nanoparticles was about 17.7% and the Pro@HMS-TA-Cu nanoparticles exhibited significant pH-responsive properties. After a coating of the TA-Cu metal-phenolic network, the contact angle and adhesion work of Pro@HMS-TA-Cu nanoparticles on the surface of oilseed rape leaves after 360 s were 59.6° and 107.2 mJ·m-2, respectively, indicating that the prepared nanoparticles possessed excellent adhesion. In addition, the Pro@HMS-TA-Cu nanoparticles demonstrated better antifungal activity against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and lower toxicity to zebrafish compared to prochloraz technical. Hence, the pH-responsive nanoparticles prepared with a TA-Cu metal-phenolic network as a capping agent are highly efficient and environmentally friendly, providing a new approach for the development of new pesticide delivery systems.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2022; 835:155591.

Abstract
The non-judicious application of the harmful pesticide endosulfan on okra, one of India's most consumed vegetable crops, has resulted in the frequent detection of residues in food samples. This can lead to resistance and the resurgence of various pests and diseases. In this context, combined dissipation and residue dynamics of different endosulfan components or mixtures (isomers and metabolites) in crop compartments are not yet well understood. To address this research gap, the present study evaluates the dissipation and persistence behavior of different endosulfan isomers (alpha-, beta-isomers) and major metabolite (endosulfan sulfate) on okra during 2017 and 2018. The half-life of endosulfan on okra leaves was found to be between 1.79 and 3.47 days. Half of the endosulfan deposits on okra fruits at the recommended doses were dissipated after 2.39 days compared to 1.99 days at double recommended doses (mean of 2017 and 2018 residue data). Measured endosulfan residues were evaluated against the dynamic plant uptake model dynamiCROP. The better fits were observed between modeled and measured residues for fruits (R2 from 0.84 to 0.96 and residual standard error (ER) between 0.6 and 1.47) as compared to leaves (R2 from 0.57 to 0.88). We also report fractions of endosulfan components ingested by humans after crop harvest. Intake fractions range from 0.0001-7.2 gintake/kg of applied pesticide. Our results can evaluate pesticide residues in different crops grown for human consumption, including their isomers and metabolites. They can be combined with dose-response information to evaluate human exposure and/or health risk assessment.

Synthesis and Antibacterial Activity of Manganese-Ferrite/Silver Nanocomposite Combined with Two Essential Oils. NANOMATERIALS 2022; 12:nano12132137. [PMID: 35807973 PMCID: PMC9268028 DOI: 10.3390/nano12132137] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2022] [Revised: 06/13/2022] [Accepted: 06/14/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
The antimicrobial activity of metal nanoparticles obtained by biogenic routes has been extensively reported. However, their combined use with other antimicrobial formulations, such as essential oils, remains scarcely explored. In this work, a manganese-ferrite/silver nanocomposite (MnFe2O4/Ag-NC) was synthesized in a two-step procedure: first, MnFe2O4 nanoparticles were produced by a coprecipitation method, followed by in situ biogenic reduction of silver ions using Galega officinalis. MnFe2O4/Ag-NC was characterized using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy equipped with an energy dispersive X-ray analyzer (SEM-EDX), and a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM-SQUID). The antibacterial activity if MnFe2O4/Ag-NC was evaluated against Pseudomonas syringae by determining its minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) in the presence of two essential oils: eucalyptus oil (EO) and garlic oil (GO). The fractional inhibitory concentration (FIC) was also calculated to determine the interaction between MnFe2O4/Ag-NC and each oil. The MIC of MnFe2O4/Ag-NC was eightfold reduced with the two essential oils (from 20 to 2.5 µg mL−1). However, the interaction with EO was synergistic (FIC: 0.5), whereas the interaction with GO was additive (FIC: 0.75). Additionally, a time-kill curve analysis was performed, wherein the MIC of the combination of MnFe2O4/Ag-NC and EO provoked a rapid bactericidal effect, corroborating a strong synergism. These findings suggest that by combining MnFe2O4/Ag-NC with essential oils, the necessary ratio of the nanocomposite to control phytopathogens can be reduced, thus minimizing the environmental release of silver.

Abstract
Nitrogen management through monitoring of crop nitrate status can improve agricultural productivity, profitability, and environmental performance. Current plant nitrate test methods require expensive instruments, time-intensive labor, and trained personnel. Frequent monitoring of in planta nitrate levels of the stalks in living plants can help to better understand the nitrogen cycle and the physiological responses to environmental variations. Although existing enzymatic electrochemical sensors provide high selectivity, they suffer from short shelf life, high cost, low-temperature storage requirement, and potential degradation over time. To overcome these issues, an artificial enzyme (vitamin B12 or VB12) and a two-dimensional material (graphene oxide or GO) are introduced into a conventional photoresist (SU8) to form a bioresin SU8-GO-VB12 that can be patterned with photolithography and laser-pyrolyzed into a carbon-based nanocomposite C-GO-VB12. The electrocatalytic activity of the cobalt factor in VB12, the surface enhancement properties of GO, and the porous feature of pyrolytic carbon are synergized through design to provide C-GO-VB12 with a superior ability to detect nitrate ions through redox reactions. In addition, laser writing-based selective pyrolysis allows applying thermal energy to target only SU8-GO-VB12 for selective pyrolysis of the bioresin into C-GO-VB12, thus reducing the total energy input and avoiding the thermal influence on the materials and structures in other areas of the substrate. The C-GO-VB12 nitrate sensor demonstrates a year-long shelf lifetime, high selectivity, and a wide dynamic range that enables a direct nitrate test for the extracted sap of maize stalk. For in situ monitoring of the nitrate level and dynamic changes in living maize plants, a microelectromechanical system-based needle sensor is formed with C-GO-VB12. The needle sensor allows direct insertion into the plant for in situ measurement of nitrate ions under different growth environments over time. The needle sensor represents a new method for monitoring in planta nitrate dynamics with no need for sample preparation, thus making a significant impact in plant sciences.

Abstract
The diamond back moth, Plutella xylostella, causes severe damage at all crop stages, beside its rising resistance to all insecticides. The objective of this study was to look for a new control strategy such as application of insecticide-loaded carbon dot-embedded fluorescent mesoporous silica nanoparticles (FL-SiO2 NPs). Two different-sized methoxyfenozide-loaded nanoparticles (Me@FL-SiO2 NPs-70 nm, Me@FL-SiO2 NPs-150 nm) were prepared, with loading content 15% and 16%. Methoxyfenozide was released constantly from Me@FL-SiO2 NPs only at specific optimum pH 7.5. The release of methoxyfenozide from Me@FL-SiO2 NPs was not observed other than this optimum pH, and therefore, we checked and controlled a single release condition to look out for the different particle sizes of insecticide-loaded NPs. This pH-responsive release pattern can find potential application in sustainable plant protection. Moreover, the lethal concentration of the LC50 value was 24 mg/L for methoxyfenozide (TC), 14 mg/L for Me@FL-SiO2 NPs-70 nm, and 15 mg/L for Me@FL-SiO2 NPs-150 nm after 72 h exposure, respectively. After calculating the LC50, the results predicted that Me@FL-SiO2 NPs-70 nm and Me@FL-SiO2 NPs-150 nm exhibited better insecticidal activity against P. xylostella than methoxyfenozide under the same concentrations of active ingredient applied. Moreover, the activities of detoxification enzymes of P. xylostella were suppressed by treatment with insecticide-loaded NPs, which showed that NPs could also be involved in reduction of enzymes. Furthermore, the entering of FL-SiO2 NPs into the midgut of P. xylostella was confirmed by confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM). For comparison, P. xylostella under treatment with water as control was also observed under CLSM. The control exhibited no fluorescent signal, while the larvae treated with FL-SiO2 NPs showed strong fluorescence under a laser excitation wavelength of 448 nm. The reduced enzyme activities as well as higher cuticular penetration in insects indicate that the nano-based delivery system of insecticide could be potentially applied in insecticide resistance management.

Abstract
Preparation of calibration curves is a critical step for large-scale quantification. However, this procedure is time-consuming, labor intensive. Herein, a novel isotopologue multipoint calibration (IMC) strategy, was proposed and demonstrated for the simultaneous quantitation of 120 pesticides and 83 veterinary drugs in surface water samples using Liquid Chromatography-High Resolution Mass Spectrometry (LC-HRMS). In this strategy, the natural isotopic distribution was used to generate external calibration curves, eliminating the need of analyst's adjustment and many sets of chemical standard solutions required in external calibration curves. Additionally, this strategy was comprehensively validated, and the results indicated this strategy had better performance in both accuracy and precision, fully meeting the requirements for the quantitative analysis. Interestingly, for the samples with high concentration beyond the upper limit of quantitation, the IMC strategy could avoid samples dilution by monitoring the less abundant isotopic channels. Furthermore, the IMC method was successfully applied in the surface water samples collected from Anhui province, China. Among which, sulfamethoxazole and imidacoprid were the main contributors. In conclusion, we present a promising LC-HRMS strategy for the accurate quantitation of small molecules, which has a potential application in food and environmental analysis.

Abstract
Herein, we describe a simple and cost-effective fabrication of a paper-based SERS substrate by coating poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDADMAC) and gold nanostars (AuNSs) on the filter paper using a vacuum filtration system. The paper-based SERS substrates were fabricated and ready to be used within an hour without any complicated equipment or processes. The cationic polymer, PDADAMAC, was pretreated on the filter paper to improve the absorbability of negatively charged AuNSs through electrostatic interaction. The PDADMAC/AuNS paper significantly intensified the SERS signal of 4-mercaptobenzoic acid (4-MBA) compared to that of pure AuNS-coated paper due to the high density of AuNSs absorbed on the SERS substrate. The PDADMAC/AuNS paper substrate provided a SERS enhancement factor (EF) of 1.08 × 107 with a low detection limit of 1 nM 4-MBA. The substrate shows excellent spot-to-spot reproducibility with a relative standard deviation (RSD) of 5.03%, and substrate-to-substrate reproducibility with an RSD of 3.20% for the Raman shift at 1080 cm-1. The paper substrate was then applied for the rapid detection of pesticides with a low detection limit of 0.51 μM (0.13 ppm) for paraquat, and 0.38 μM (0.09 ppm) for thiram, using a handheld Raman spectrometer. The development of this simple and cost-effective paper-based SERS substrate, and its applications for on-site monitoring of pesticides, could be beneficial for food security and environmental safety.

Abstract
The main objective of the present study is to develop artificial neural networks (ANN) to predict the adsorption efficiency of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) on Cr(VI) removal. Polydisperse MWCNTs were synthesized at 750 °C on alumina supported Fe-Co-Mo catalyst using CVD (chemical vapor deposition)-assisted spray pyrolysis of Azadirachta indica (Neem) oil under inert Argon (Ar) atmosphere. Growth of MCWNTs with inner diameters between 9 and 14 nm was corroborated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), and Raman spectral evidence assessments. The metal-ion adsorbent capacity (Cr-VI) of the as such prepared MWCNTs was examined for industrial purposes. Different parameters such as adsorption isotherms, kinetics, and thermodynamic parameters were analyzed for the removal of metal ions with MWCNTs. The results of isotherm, kinetic, and thermodynamic study indicated that the process suited well with Langmuir isotherm, pseudo second-order kinetics, and followed endothermic reaction, respectively. The effects of parameters such as adsorbent dosage, concentration of chromium ion (Cr-VI), pH, and contact time were studied to optimize the maximum removal of Cr(VI). In order to optimize the process conditions using Artificial Neural Networks, Box-Behnken design (BBD) was used to design the batch adsorption experiments, and the resulting datasets were used as the input for ANN. To predict the adsorption efficiency, various ANN architectures were examined using different training algorithms, number of neurons in the hidden layer, and the transfer function for the hidden and output layers. A neural network structure with Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) training algorithm, 14 hidden neurons, and tangent sigmoid transfer function at the hidden layer and logarithmic sigmoid transfer function at the output layer furnished the best level of prediction results. Comparing with experimental data, the optimal model capitulated mean square error (MSE),and correlation coefficient (R2) of 0.0324 and 0.99512, respectively. The results showed that ANN is well-organized in predicting the adsorption efficiency of MWCNTs for Cr(VI) metal ion removal process.

Abstract
The fast pace of increasing human population has led to enhanced crop production, due to which a significant increase in the application of pesticides has been recorded worldwide. Following the enhancement in the utilization of pesticides, the degree of environmental pollution, particularly soil pollution, has increased. To address this challenge, different methods of controlling and eliminating such contaminants have been proposed. Various methods have been reported to eradicate or reduce the degree of contamination of pesticides in the soil. Several factors are crucial for soil contamination, including pH, temperature, the number, and type/nature of soil microorganisms. Among the accessible techniques, some of them respond better to contamination removal. One of these methods is bioremediation, and it is one of the ideal solutions for pollution reduction. In this innovative technique, microorganisms are utilized to decompose environmental pollutants or to curb pollution. This paper gives detailed insight into various strategies used for the reduction and removal of soil pollution.

Abstract
Nanotechnology is one of the most emerging fields of research within recent decades and is based upon the exploitation of nano-sized materials (e.g., nanoparticles, nanotubes, nanomembranes, nanowires, nanofibers and so on) in various operational fields. Nanomaterials have multiple advantages, including high stability, target selectivity, and plasticity. Diverse biotic (e.g., Capsid of viruses and algae) and abiotic (e.g., Carbon, silver, gold and etc.) materials can be utilized in the synthesis process of nanomaterials. "Nanobiotechnology" is the combination of nanotechnology and biotechnology disciplines. Nano-based approaches are developed to improve the traditional biotechnological methods and overcome their limitations, such as the side effects caused by conventional therapies. Several studies have reported that nanobiotechnology has remarkably enhanced the efficiency of various techniques, including drug delivery, water and soil remediation, and enzymatic processes. In this review, techniques that benefit the most from nano-biotechnological approaches, are categorized into four major fields: medical, industrial, agricultural, and environmental.

Abstract
Nanotechnology could greatly improve global agricultural food production. Chlorantraniliprole and lambda cyhalothrin double-loaded nano-microcapsules were fabricated to enhance the control of pests by pesticides and improve the pesticide utilization efficiency. The nano-microcapsules were synthesized using a method involving the solid in oil in water encapsulation technique and solvent evaporation. The nano-microcapsules slowly and simultaneously released lambda cyhalothrin and chlorantraniliprole. The cumulative lambda cyhalothrin and chlorantraniliprole release rates at 40 h were 80% and 70%, respectively. Indoor Spodoptera frugiperda control tests indicated that the double-loaded nano-microcapsules were more toxic than lambda cyhalothrin water-dispersible granules, chlorantraniliprole water-dispersible granules, and a mixture of lambda cyhalothrin water-dispersible granules and chlorantraniliprole water-dispersible granules, indicating that the pesticides in the nano-microcapsules synergistically controlled Spodoptera frugiperda. The results indicated that pesticide nano-microcapsules with synergistic effects can be developed that can improve the effective pesticide utilization efficiency and pesticide bioavailability. This is a new idea for achieving environmentally intelligent pesticide delivery.

Abstract
At present, it is highly important to develop a simple and compatible nano delivery system for pesticides for foliar application, which can improve their insecticidal efficacy and resistance to adverse climates while reducing the environmental risks. Polyethylene glycol and 4,4-methylenediphenyl diisocyanate are used as hydrophilic soft and hydrophobic hard segments, respectively, for polymer self-assembly and polyurethane gelation in a nanoreactor. The nanocarrier synthesis and the pesticide loading are realized by a one-step integration procedure and suited well for hydrophobic active compounds. Modifying the molecular structure of the soft segment can adjust the flexibility of the nanocarriers and result in viscosity and deformation characteristics. After foliar spray application, the foliar flattening state of the nanogels increases the foliar protection area by 2.21 times and improves both pesticide exposure area and target contact efficiency. Concurrently, the flexibility and viscosity of the nanogels increase the washing resistance and the retention rate of the pesticide by approximately 80 times under continuous washing. The encapsulation of the nanogels reduces the foliar ultraviolet (UV) degradation and aquatic pesticide exposure, which increase the security of λ-cyhalothrine by 9.33 times. Moreover, the degradability of nanogels is beneficial for pesticide exposure and reducing pollution. This system has simple preparation, good properties, and environmental friendliness, making the nanocarriers promising for delivering pesticides.

Abstract
Pongamia pinnata (L.) seed oil is effective for its insecticidal and larvicidal activities. However, its low aqueous solubility, high photosensitivity, and high volatility restrict its application for the control of agricultural pests. Encapsulation can be an effective technique to overcome such hindrances. Therefore, P. pinnata oil (PO) was extracted from its seeds and analyzed for karanjin content (3.18%) by GC-MS/MS as the marker compound. Micro-encapsulation (MC) of PO was prepared by interfacial polymerization between isocyanates and polyamine and tested for insecticidal and larvicidal activities. Bioassay of the developed formulations was tested in-vitro against 2nd instar larvae of Bombyx mori (Bivoltine hybrid) and in-vivo insecticidal bio-efficacy was tested against aubergine aphid (Aphis gossypii G.) and whitefly (Bemisia tabaci G.). Various properties of micro-capsules viz., stability, size, oil content and release kinetics were examined. Average diameter of capsules (1 μm) with Zeta potential (-16 mV) was indicated by the Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) instrument. Existence of PO in the microcapsules was confirmed by an optical microscopic study. Spectroscopic analysis revealed 87.4% of PO was encapsulated in polyurea shell. The shelf-life (T 10 ), half-life (T 50 ), and expiry-life (T 90 ) of polyurea coated capsules were 11.4, 75.3 and 250.0 h, respectively. Polyurea coated PO capsule formulation showed evidence of in-vitro toxicity against 2nd instar larvae of B. mori (LC 50 = 1.1%; LC 90 = 5.9%). The PO formulation also exhibited 67.0-71.8% and 62.4-74.8% control of aphid and whitefly population in aubergine at 4.0% dose following 7-14 days after application. The study unveiled its significance in developing controlled release herbal formulations of P. pinnata as an alternative to harmful conventional synthetic insecticides for crop protection.

Abstract
Heavy metals cause considerable environmental pollution due to their extent and non-degradability in the environment. Analysis and trace levels of arsenic, lead, mercury, and cadmium as the most toxic heavy metals show that they can cause various hazards in humans' health. To achieve rapid, high-sensitivity methods for analyzing ultra-trace amounts of heavy metals in different environmental and biological samples, novel biosensors have been designed with the participation of strategies applied in nanotechnology. This review attempted to investigate the novel, sensitive, efficient, cost-benefit, point of care, and user-friendly biosensors designed to detect these heavy metals based on functional mechanisms. The study's search strategies included examining the primary databases from 2015 onwards and various keywords focusing on heavy metal biosensors' performance and toxicity mechanisms. The use of aptamers and whole cells as two important bio-functional nanomaterials is remarkable in heavy metal diagnostic biosensors' bioreceptor design. The application of hybridized nanomaterials containing a specific physicochemical function in the presence of a suitable transducer can improve the sensing performance to achieve an integrated detection system. Our study showed that in addition to both labeled and label-free detection strategies, a wide range of nanoparticles and nanocomposites were used to modify the biosensor surface platform in the detection of heavy metals. The detection limit and linear dynamic range as an essential characteristic of superior biosensors for the primary toxic metals are studied. Furthermore, the perspectives and challenges facing the design of heavy metal biosensors are outlined. The development of novel biosensors and the application of nanotechnology, especially in real samples, face challenges such as the capability to simultaneously detect multiple heavy metals, the interference process in complex matrices, the efficiency and stability of nanomaterials implemented in various laboratory conditions.

Abstract
A colorimetric assay for highly selective and sensitive detection of tricyclazole using fluorescein-functionalized silver nanoparticles (F-AgNPs) as sensing probes was investigated. As the addition of tricyclazole to F-AgNPs, a drastic decrease in the absorbance at 394 nm was detected, which was accompanied with a noticeable color change from yellow to gray. The sensing mechanism involved an interaction between tricyclazole and F-AgNPs, which led to aggregation of the latter, inducing a color change from yellow to gray. An excellent linear calibration curve (R2 = 0.9994) was achieved between absorbance at 394 nm and the tricyclazole concentration in the range between 0.06 and 1.0 ppm. Moreover, the detection limit was estimated at 0.051 ppm. The developed colorimetric assay also showed good selectivity and was successfully utilized to quantify tricyclazole in rice samples with satisfactory recoveries. The proposed assay has been successfully applied for monitoring tricyclazole in rice samples.
