Abstract
Thiabendazole, a widely used broad-spectrum fungicide in agriculture, poses risks to human health. To monitor its presence in water, we propose a fluorescent aptasensor utilizing Escherichia coli exonuclease I (Exo I). The findings demonstrate a linear correlation between thiabendazole concentrations and digestion percentage, with a detection limit (LOD) exceeding 1 µM and a determination coefficient (R2) of 0.959. This aptamer-based fluorescence spectroscopy detection system holds promise for a rapid, specific, and sensitive analysis of thiabendazole in environmental waters and food matrices.

Abstract
Pesticides, chemical substances extensively employed in agriculture to optimize crop yields, pose potential risks to human and environmental health. Consequently, regulatory frameworks are in place to restrict pesticide residue concentrations in water intended for human consumption. These regulations are implemented to safeguard consumer safety and mitigate any adverse effects on the environment and public health. Although gas chromatography- and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS and LC-MS) are highly efficient techniques for pesticide quantification, their use is not suitable for real-time monitoring due to the need for sophisticated laboratory pretreatment of samples prior to analysis. Since they would enable analyte detection with selectivity and sensitivity without sample pretreatment, biosensors appear as a promising alternative. These consist of a bioreceptor allowing for specific recognition of the target and of a detection platform, which translates the biological interaction into a measurable signal. As early detection systems remain urgently needed to promptly alert and act in case of pollution, we review here the biosensors described in the literature for pesticide detection to advance their development for use in the field.

Abstract
N-phosphonomethyle-glycine (glyphosate) is the most widely used pesticide worldwide due to its effectiveness in killing weeds at a moderate cost, bringing significant economic benefits. However, owing to its massive use, glyphosate and its residues contaminate surface waters. On site, fast monitoring of contamination is therefore urgently needed to alert local authorities and raise population awareness. Here the hindrance of the activity of two enzymes, the exonuclease I (Exo I) and the T5 exonuclease (T5 Exo) by glyphosate, is reported. These two enzymes digest oligonucleotides into shorter sequences, down to single nucleotides. The presence of glyphosate in the reaction medium hampers the activity of both enzymes, slowing down enzymatic digestion. It is shown by fluorescence spectroscopy that the inhibition of ExoI enzymatic activity is specific to glyphosate, paving the way for the development of a biosensor to detect this pollutant in drinking water at suitable detection limits, i.e., 0.6 nm.

Abstract
In this paper, a novel fluorescence assay has been constructed for the determination of parathion-methyl (PM) by using 4-amino-3-hydroxy-1-naphthalenesulfonic acid (AHNSA) as probe. MnO2 nanosheets (MnO2 NS) could quench the fluorescence of AHNSA, while Mn2+, the reduction product of MnO2 NS, has no influence on it, resulting in fluorescence recovery. This is because that MnO2 NS have oxidized characteristic, and they can react with choline (TCh), which is the product of acetylthiocholine (ATCh) catalyzed by acetylcholinesterase (AChE). In the presence of OPs, the activity of AChE was inhibited, accompanied by the restraint of the redox reaction of MnO2 NS, therefore the fluorescence of AHNSA was quenched. Under the optimized experimental conditions, a linear range of PM was determined to be 0.4-40 ng/mL (R2 = 0.997) by the proposed method with the limit of detection for 0.18 ng/mL (S/N = 3). The assay was successfully applied to the determination of PM in lake water, which average recoveries were between 86.5% and 114.4%.

Abstract
This work presents a new optical microfluidic paper biosensor for the detection of organophosphate pesticides and carbamate pesticides. The assay strip is composed of a paper support (1 × 17.6 mm) onto which acetylcholine esterase (AChE) and acetylcholine chloride (AChCl) are deposited, in such a way that there is a small hole between them that ensures that they only come into contact in the reaction zone when they are carried by a solution of the sample by lateral flow to the reaction zone containing bromocresol purple (BCP) as the pH indicator, immobilized by sol-gel. The sensor operates at room temperature and the rate of the inhibited reaction serves as an analytical signal, which is measured using a camera by quantifying the appropriate colour coordinate. Calibration curves were obtained for chlorpyrifos and carbaryl, with a useful concentration range from 0.24 to 20 μg L-1 for carbaryl and from 2.00 to 45 μg L-1 for chlorpyrifos. The detection limits were 0.24 and 2.00 μg L-1, respectively, and with reproducibility around 4.2-5.5%. The method was applied to the determination of pesticides in different water samples, with no sample preparation.
