Abstract
Interest in the use of sensors based on metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to detect food pollutants has been growing recently due to the desirable characteristics of MOFs, including uniform structures, large surface area, ultrahigh porosity and easy-to-functionalize surface. Fundamentally, this review offers an excellent solution using MOFs-based sensors (e.g., fluorescent, electrochemical, electrochemiluminescence, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, and colorimetric sensors) to detect food contaminants such as pesticide residues, mycotoxins, antibiotics, food additives, and other hazardous candidates. More importantly, their application scenarios and advantages in food detection are also introduced in more detail. Therefore, this systematic review analyzes detection limits, linear ranges, the role of functionalities, and immobilized nanoparticles utilized in preparing MOFs-based sensors. Additionally, the main limitations of each sensing type, along with the enhancement mechanisms of MOFs in addressing efficient sensing are discussed. Finally, the limitations and potential trends of MOFs-based materials in food contaminant detection are also highlighted.

Abstract
The importance of food quality and safety lies in ensuring the best product quality to meet consumer demands and public health. Advanced technologies play a crucial role in minimizing the risk of foodborne illnesses, contamination, drug residue, and other potential hazards in food. Significant materials and technological advancements have been made throughout the food supply chain. Among them, quantum dots (QDs), as a class of advanced nanomaterials with unique physicochemical properties, are progressively demonstrating their value in the field of food quality and safety. This review aims to explore cutting-edge research on the different applications of QDs in food quality and safety, including encapsulation of bioactive compounds, detection of food analytes, food preservation and packaging, and intelligent food freshness indicators. Moreover, the modification strategies and potential toxicities of diverse QDs are outlined, which can affect performance and hinder applications in the food industry. The findings suggested that QDs are mainly used in analyte detection and active/intelligent food packaging. Various food analytes can be detected using QD-based sensors, including heavy metal ions, pesticides, antibiotics, microorganisms, additives, and functional components. Moreover, QD incorporation aided in improving the antibacterial and antioxidant activities of film/coatings, resulting in extended shelf life for packaged food. Finally, the perspectives and critical challenges for the productivity, toxicity, and practical application of QDs are also summarized. By consolidating these essential aspects into this review, the way for developing high-performance QD-based nanomaterials is presented for researchers and food technologists to better capitalize upon this technology in food applications.

Abstract
Human tyrosine hydroxylase (hTH) has key role in the production of catecholamine neurotransmitters. The structure, function and regulation of hTH has been extensively researched area and the possibility of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) involving hTH through nanocarriers has been raised as well. However, our understanding on how hTH may interact with nanocarriers is still lacking. In this work, we attempted to investigate the immobilization of hTH on magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) with various surface linkers in quantitative and mechanistic detail. Our results showed that the activity of hTH was retained after immobilization via secondary and covalent interactions as well. The colloidal stability of hTH could be also enhanced proved by Dynamic light scattering and Zeta potential analysis and a homogenous enzyme layer could be achieved, which was investigated by Raman mapping. The covalent attachment of hTH on MNPs via aldehyde or epoxy linkers provide irreversible immobilization and 38.1 % and 16.5 % recovery (ER). The hTH-MNPs catalyst had 25 % ER in average in simulated nasal electrolyte solution (SNES). This outcome highlights the relevance of immobilization applying MNPs as a potential formulation tool of sensitive therapeutic enzymes offering new opportunities for ERT related to neurodegenerative disorders.

Yang W, Feng L. Mg 2+-promoted high-efficiency DNA conjugation on polydopamine surfaces for aptamer-based ochratoxin A detection. Anal Chim Acta 2024; 1298:342382. [PMID: 38462338 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2024.342382] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2023] [Accepted: 02/15/2024] [Indexed: 03/12/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Surface immobilization of DNA is the foundation of a broad range of applications in biosensing and specific DNA extraction. Polydopamine (PDA) coatings can serve as intermediate layers to immobilize amino- or thiol-labelled molecules, including DNA, onto various materials through Michael addition and/or Schiff base reactions. However, the conjugation efficiency is limited by electrostatic repulsion between negatively charged DNA and PDA. Recently, it has been reported that polyvalent metal ions (such as Mg2+ and Ca2+) can mediate the adsorption of DNA on PDA surfaces. Inspired by this, in this work we aimed to exploit polyvalent metal ions to facilitate the conjugation of DNA on PDA. RESULTS Mg2+ was used to promote the conjugation of amino-terminated DNA complementary to ochratoxin A (OTA) aptamer (cDNA-NH2) on PDA-coated magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4@PDA). After the reaction, the unlinked cDNA-NH2 adsorbed on Fe3O4@PDA mediated by Mg2+ was removed with EDTA. In the presence of 20 mM Mg2+, the amount of covalently linked cDNA-NH2 increased approximately 11-fold compared to that in the absence of Mg2+. The resulting Fe3O4@PDA@cDNA conjugates exhibited superior hybridization capacity towards OTA aptamers, minimal nonspecific adsorption, and excellent chemical stability. The conjugates combined with fluorophore-labelled aptamers were employed for OTA detection, achieving a limit of detection (LOD) of 2.77 ng mL-1. To demonstrate versatility, this conjugation method was extended to Ca2+-promoted conjugation of cDNA-NH2 on Fe3O4@PDA nanoparticles and Mg2+-promoted conjugation of cDNA-NH2 on PDA-coated 96-well plates. SIGNIFICANCE The conjugation efficiency of DNA on PDA was significantly improved with the assistance of polyvalent metal ions (Mg2+ and Ca2+), providing a facile and efficient method for DNA immobilization. Due to the substrate-independent adhesion property of PDA, this method demonstrates versatility in DNA surface modification and holds great potential for applications in target extraction, biosensing, and other fields.

Magnetic solid phase extraction coupled to HPLC-UV for highly sensitive analysis of mono-hydroxy polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in urine. Anal Chim Acta 2024; 1285:342020.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As a common pollutant, the carcinogenic properties of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons have garnered considerable attention. Trace metabolites of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons can be detected in urine as a non-invasively approach to monitor the exposure level. Nonetheless, the urine samples have the disadvantages of being large in volume and containing numerous impurities. Given the growing demand to study metabolites with low abundance and potential biomarkers, there is a pressing need for a preconcentration and high-throughput technique for effectively handling complex liquid samples. RESULTS Polystyrene-coated magnetic nanoparticles were used to establish a novel magnetic extraction method for monohydroxy polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in urine samples. Polystyrene magnetic nanoparticles are an ideal absorbent for solid-phase extraction. After the material was mixed with the sample and adsorbed the target analyte, the analytes on the material were eluted and quantified using high-performance liquid chromatography. Influencing factors were optimized, and the proposed method achieved desirable sensitivity in analyzing low-abundance metabolites in large volumes of complex urine samples. The recoveries of intra-day and inter-day were 78.0-118.0 % and 81.0 %-115.0 %, respectively. The intra-day and inter-day reproducibility were less than 4.5 % and 8.6 %, respectively. The limits of detection were in the range of 0.009-0.041 ng mL-1, and the limits of quantification were in the range of 0.030-0.135 ng mL-1. SIGNIFICANCE AND NOVELTY The application of reusable polystyrene-coated magnetic solid-phase nanoparticles as adsorbents makes the extraction of monohydroxy polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from urine samples economical and environmentally benign. The proposed method is simple, sensitive, and efficient compared to existing techniques. The nanoparticles are easy to prepare, showing potential for rapid screening of complex bulk bio-samples in batches with high efficiency and low budget.

Abstract
Mycotoxin contamination of food crops is a global challenge due to their unpredictable occurrence and severe adverse health effects on humans. Therefore, it is of great importance to develop effective tools to prevent the accumulation of mycotoxins through the food chain. The use of magnetic nanoparticle (MNP)-assisted biosensors for detecting mycotoxin in complex foodstuffs has garnered great interest due to the significantly enhanced sensitivity and accuracy. Within such a context, this review includes the fundamentals and recent advances (2020-2023) in the area of mycotoxin monitoring in food matrices using MNP-based aptasensors and immunosensors. In this review, we start by providing a comprehensive introduction to the design of immunosensors (natural antibody or nanobody, random or site-oriented immobilization) and aptasensors (techniques for aptamer selection, characterization, and truncation). Meanwhile, special attention is paid to the multifunctionalities of MNPs (recoverable adsorbent, versatile carrier, and signal indicator) in preparing mycotoxin-specific biosensors. Further, the contribution of MNPs to the multiplexing determination of various mycotoxins is summarized. Finally, challenges and future perspectives for the practical applications of MNP-assisted biosensors are also discussed. The progress and updates of MNP-based biosensors shown in this review are expected to offer readers valuable insights about the design of MNP-based tools for the effective detection of mycotoxins in practical applications.

Abstract
Doxycycline (DOX), a typical tetracycline antibiotic, is widely used because of its excellent antibacterial activity. To develop effective method for DOX has attracted much more attention. Herein, a new detection technology integrating magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) based on thermosensitive magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers (T-MMIPs) and fluorescence spectrometry based on carbon dots (CDs) was established. Thermosensitive magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers (T-MMIPs) was designed for selective enrichment of trace DOX. The synthesized T-MMIPs showed excellent selectivity for DOX. The adsorption performance of T-MMIPs varied with temperature in different solvents, which could achieve the enrichment and rapid desorption of DOX. In addition, the synthesized CDs had stable fluorescent property and better water-solubility, and the fluorescence of CDs was significantly quenched by DOX due to the internal filtration effect (IFE). Under the optimized conditions, the method resulted in good linearity over the range from 0.5 to 30 μg L-1, and the limit of detection was 0.2 μg L-1. The constructed detection technology was validated with real water samples, and excellent spiked recoveries from 92.5 % to 105.2 % were achieved. These data clearly indicated that the proposed technology was rapid, highly selective, environmentally friendly, and possessed significant potential application and development prospects.

Abstract
Nanochannel-based confinement effect is a fascinating signal transduction strategy for high-performance sensing, but only size confinement is focused on while other confinement effects are unexplored. Here, a highly integrated nanochannel-electrodes chip (INEC) is created and a size/volume-dual-confinement enzyme catalysis model for rapid and sensitive bacteria detection is developed. The INEC, by directly sandwiching a nanochannel chip (60 µm in thickness) in nanoporous gold layers, creates a micro-droplet-based confinement electrochemical cell (CEC). The size confinement of nanochannel promotes the urease catalysis efficiency to generate more ions, while the volume confinement of CEC significantly enriches ions by restricting diffusion. As a result, the INEC-based dual-confinement effects benefit a synergetic enhancement of the catalytic signal. A 11-times ion-strength-based impedance response is obtained within just 1 min when compared to the relevant open system. Combining this novel nanoconfinement effects with nanofiltration of INEC, a separation/signal amplification-integrated sensing strategy is further developed for Salmonella typhimurium detection. The biosensor realizes facile, rapid (<20 min), and specific signal readout with a detection limit of 9 CFU mL-1 in culturing solution, superior to most reports. This work may create a new paradigm for studying nanoconfined processes and contribute a new signal transduction technique for trace analysis application.

Abstract
Purpose Magnetic separation of microbes can be an effective tool for pathogen identification and diagnostic applications to reduce the time needed for sample preparation. After peptide functionalization of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) with an appropriate interface, they can be used for the separation of sepsis-associated yeasts like Candida albicans. Due to their magnetic properties, the magnetic extraction of the particles in the presence of an external magnetic field ensures the accumulation of the targeted yeast. Materials and Methods In this study, we used SPIONs coated with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) and functionalized with a peptide originating from GP340 (SPION-APTES-Pep). For the first time, we investigate whether this system is suitable for the separation and enrichment of Candida albicans, we investigated its physicochemical properties and by thermogravimetric analysis we determined the amount of peptide on the SPIONs. Further, the toxicological profile was evaluated by recording cell cycle and DNA degradation. The separation efficiency was investigated using Candida albicans in different experimental settings, and regrowth experiments were carried out to show the use of SPION-APTES-Pep as a sample preparation method for the identification of fungal infections. Conclusion SPION-APTES-Pep can magnetically remove more than 80% of the microorganism and with a high selective host-pathogen distinction Candida albicans from water-based media and about 55% in blood after 8 minutes processing without compromising effects on the cell cycle of human blood cells. Moreover, the separated fungal cells could be regrown without any restrictions.

Abstract
A rapid and efficient method using an alkyl-functionalized magnetic nanoparticles-based extraction technique combined with Ultra-High Performance Liquid Chromatography was developed for the detection of trace amounts of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in tea leaves. As a popular coating for chromatographic column packing materials, C18-alkyl has been demonstrated to be effective in separating polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Additionally, the magnetism of the nanomaterials accelerates the extraction process while their high surface ratio enables desirable dispersity in the sample matrix. Meanwhile, the adsorbents can be washed and reused 30 times without compromising recovery, which greatly reduces the budget. The effects of various parameters were investigated and optimized, and the recoveries for five analytes were in the range of 84.8-105.4%. The RSD of intra-day and inter-day were below 11.9% and 6.8%, respectively. The limits of detection and limits of quantification ranged from 1.69-9.97 ng g-1 and 5.12-30.21 ng g-1, indicating satisfactory sensitivity. Thus, the proposed methodology is rapid, highly efficient, and economical, and it expands the application of magnetic cleanup approaches in complex food matrices.

Abstract
Numerous analytical approaches have been developed to determine histamine levels in food samples due to its health consequences. Consuming histamine over the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-regulated 50 mg kg-1 limit would result in chronic toxicity. Consequently, the present study discusses a novel electrochemical approach to evaluate histamine levels in fish products via a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) on an electrode surface. The film was produced with electropolymerized polyurethane (PU), which maintained the histamine compound. Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was applied to verify the MIP manufactured in this study. The capability of the polymer was measured by assessing its electron shifts with cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) was also employed to validate the sensing method. The MIP/screen-printed electrode (SPE) and non-imprinted polymer (NIP)/SPE recorded a linear response ranging from 1 to 1000 nmol L-1 at the 1.765 and 709 nmol L-1 detection limits. The sensing technique was subsequently utilized to determine the histamine levels in selected samples at room temperature (25 °C). Generally, the sensor allowed the accurate and precise detection of histamine in the fish samples. Furthermore, the approach could be categorized as a simple technique that is low-cost and suitable for on-site detections.

Abstract
The toxicity of histamine has attracted numerous researchers to develop a method for histamine determination purposes. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) unequivocally prohibits the consumption of histamine above 50 mg·kg-1. Thus, an innovation in histamine detection in fish has been developed in this research. The investigation of the histamine level in fish has been conducted by using an electrochemical sensor approach and producing a polymer via molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) on a screen-printed electrode. The technique was validated by assessing the shifts in electron shifting using the cyclic voltammetry (CV) approach and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), whereas differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) was applied to validate the sensor method. The instruments showed a linear response ranging from 1-1000 nmol·L-1, with a detection limit of MIP/SPE at 1.765 nmol·L-1 and 709 nmol·L-1 for the NIP/SPE, respectively. The sensing technique was employed to determine the histamine level in selected samples at room temperature (25°C). The outcomes of this study indicated that the validated chemical sensor allowed accurate and precise detection of fish samples and can be categorized as a simple approach. The instrument is inexpensive and suitable for on-site detection.

Abstract
Paper spray ionization has been demonstrated to be the most promising substrate-based source, but this technique suffers from the low desorption efficiency of target compounds and poor portability. In the current study, we describe a portable paper-based electrospray ionization (PPESI) in which a piece of triangle paper and adsorbent are packed sequentially into a modified disposable micropipette tip. This source not only captures the feature of paper spray and adsorbent for highly efficient suppression of sample matrixes for target compound analysis but also takes advantage of a micropipette tip to prevent spray solvent from rapid evaporation. The performance of developed PPESI depends on the type and amount of packed adsorbent, paper substrate, and spray solvent and applied voltage. Moreover, by contrast to other related sources, the analytical sensitivity and the spray duration of PPESI in tandem with MS have been improved by factors of 2.8-32.3 and 2.0-13.3, respectively. Based on its high accuracy (>96%) and precision (less than 3% relative standard deviation), the PPESI coupled to a mass spectrometer has been used to determine diverse therapeutic drugs and pesticides in complex biological (e.g., whole blood, serum, and urine) and food (e.g., milk and orange juice) matrixes, and the limits of detection and quantification were 2-4 pg mL-1 and 7-13 pg mL-1, respectively. Taking the portability, high sensitivity, and repeatability, the technique may be a promising alternative for complex sample analysis.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have attracted impressive interest in separation on aqueous media. Herein, we integrated the stable vinylene-linked COFs with magnetic nanosphere via the monomer-mediated in situ growth strategy to construct a crystalline Fe3O4@v-COF composite for enrichment and determination of benzimidazole fungicides (BZDs) from complex sample matrices. The Fe3O4@v-COF has a crystalline assembly, high surface area, porous character together with a well-defined core-shell structure, and serves as progressive pretreatment materials for magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) of BZDs. Adsorption mechanism studies revealed that the extended conjugated system and numerous polar cyan groups on v-COF provides abundant π-π and multiple hydrogen bonding sites, which are conducive to interact with BZDs collaboratively. Fe3O4@v-COF also displayed enrichment effects to various polar pollutions with conjugated structures and hydrogen-bonding sites. Fe3O4@v-COF-based MSPE-high-performance liquid chromatography exhibited the low limit of detection, wide linearity, and good precision. Moreover, Fe3O4@v-COF showed better stability, enhanced extraction performance, and more sustainable reusability in comparison with its imine-linked counterpart. This work proposes a feasible strategy on constructing the crystalline stable magnetic vinylene-linked COF composite for the determination of trace contaminants in complex food matrices.

Abstract
In recent years, heavy metal pollution has become increasingly serious. Heavy metals exist in an environment mainly in the form of ions (heavy metal ions, HMs). They can contaminate food, water, soil, and the atmosphere, leading to serious harm to plants and animals. With high bioavailability and nonbiodegradability, HMs can accumulate through biomagnification. Consequently, heavy metal pollution has become the cause of many fatal diseases threatening human health and ecological environment. Therefore, the accurate detection of HMs is vital and necessary. In this paper, the harm and limit standards of heavy metals were systematically summarized and the common analysis methods were overviewed and compared. Specifically, the latest research progress of ratiometric photoelectric sensor, including optical and electrical sensor, were mainly described. The research status and advantages and disadvantages of a photoelectric sensor were summarized. Furthermore, the future directions were proposed, which provided the reference for the further research and application of the ratiometric photoelectric sensor.

Abstract
This study synthesized and characterized ZIF-8 nanoparticles encapsulated with trans-cinnamaldehyde oil (TC) and evaluated their antimicrobial effectiveness against Escherichia coli O157:H7 on fresh spinach leaves. The antimicrobial activity of different mass ratios of TC-encapsulated ZIF-8 against E. coli O157:H7 (ATCC 43895) strain was assessed and the best mass ratio of 1:2 TC to ZIF-8 identified. Spinach leaves were treated with (1) 0.5TC@ZIF-8_PL nanoparticle complexes solution, (2) 200 ppm chlorine, (3) free TC, and (4) sterilized distilled water (control). All sample groups were rinsed for 1 min, dried in a biosafety cabinet, weighted, and packed in sterilized Whirl-pkTM Stand-Up sampling bags, and stored at 4°C for 15 days for shelf life studies. Samples were dipped into a solution of nanoparticles and another group was sprayed. The quality of spinach samples was assessed by monitoring changes in moisture content (MC), water activity (Aw), color, pH, texture (firmness and work), vitamin C content, total carotenoid, and chlorophyll content. Spinach leaves treated with 0.5TC@ZIF-8_PL had less (p < 0.05) water, total chlorophyll, and total carotenoid losses, with minimal changes in pH. However, treatment did not prevent the color degradation (p > 0.05) and adversely affected spinach firmness. The spinach samples treated with 200 ppm chlorine and free TC had higher (p < 0.05) total chlorophyll degradation than the samples treated with the nanoparticles. The mass ratio of TC-encapsulated ZIF-8 must be readjusted to reduce potential toxicity issues while maintaining the antimicrobial properties. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) nanoparticle complex can be used to encapsulate natural antimicrobials to inhibit growth of pathogens on fresh produce. A 2-log reduction in populations of Escherichia coli O157:H7 on fresh spinach leaves was achieved using trans-cinnamaldehyde at low concentrations. The results can be used to embed the compounds into polymeric films for antimicrobial packaging applications.

Abstract
Pyridaben is an acaricide widely used around the world to control phytophagous mites, white flies, aphids, and thrips. It is highly toxic to nontarget organisms such as predatory mites, bees, and fishes. Therefore, the occurrence and removal of pyridaben in food and the environment are worthy of concern. This mini-review focuses on pyridaben residue levels in crops, aquatic systems, and soils, as well as the green synthesis and removal of pyridaben. During the period of 2010–2022, pyridaben was reported in monitoring studies on fruits, vegetables, herbs, bee products, aquatic systems, and soils. Vegetable and agricultural soil samples exhibited the highest detection rates and residue levels. One-pot synthesis offers a green chemistry and sustainable alternative for the synthesis of pyridaben. Among traditional home treatments, peeling is the most effective way to remove pyridaben from crops. Magnetic solid-phase extraction technology has emerged as a powerful tool for the adsorption and separation of pyridaben. Photocatalytic methods using TiO2 as a catalyst were developed as advanced oxidation processes for the degradation of pyridaben in aqueous solutions. Current gaps in pyridaben removal were proposed to provide future development directions for minimizing the exposure risk of pyridaben residues to human and nontarget organisms.

Abstract
Exosomes are nano-scale extracellular vesicles, which can be used as drug carriers, tumor treatment, intestinal development and immune regulator. That is why it has great potential in pharmacy, functional foods, nutritional supplements, especially those for infants, postoperative patients, chemotherapy patients and the elderly. In addition, abnormal exosome level is also related to diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, tumor, diabetes, neurodegenerative and autoimmune diseases, as well as infectious diseases. Despite its high biological significance, pharmaceutical and nutritional value, the low abundancy of exosomes in milk is one of the bottlenecks restricting its in-depth research and real-life application. At present, there is no unified standard for the extraction of breast milk exosomes. Therefore, choosing the proper extraction method is very critical for its subsequent research and development. Based on this, this paper reviewed the purification techniques, the function and the possible applications of milk exosomes based on 47 latest references. Humble advices on future directions, prospects on new ideas and methods which are useful for the study of exosomes are proposed at the end of the paper as well.

Abstract
The presence of food contaminants can cause foodborne illnesses, posing a severe threat to human health. Therefore, a rapid, sensitive, and convenient method for monitoring food contaminants is eagerly needed. The complex matrix interferences of food samples and poor performance of existing sensing probes bring significant challenges to improving detection performances. Nanocomposites with multifunctional features provide a solution to these problems. The combination of the superior characteristics of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and quantum dots (QDs) to fabricate magnetic fluorescent quantum dots (MNPs@QDs) nanocomposites are regarded as an ideal multifunctional probe for food contaminants analysis. The high-efficiency pretreatment and rapid fluorescence detection are concurrently integrated into one sensing platform using MNPs@QDs nanocomposites. In this review, the contemporary synthetic strategies to fabricate MNPs@QDs, including hetero-crystalline growth, template embedding, layer-by-layer assembly, microemulsion technique, and one-pot method, are described in detail, and their advantages and limitations are discussed. The recent advances of MNPs@QDs nanocomposites in detecting metal ions, foodborne pathogens, toxins, pesticides, antibiotics, and illegal additives are comprehensively introduced from the perspectives of modes and detection performances. The review ends with current challenges and opportunities in practical applications and prospects in food contaminants analysis, aiming to promote the enthusiasm for multifunctional sensing platform research.

Abstract
Nanomaterials, and in particular metallic nanoparticles (MNPs), have significantly contributed to the production of healthier, safer, and higher-quality foods and food packaging with special properties, such as greater mechanical strength, improved gas barrier capacity, increased water repellency and ability to inhibit microbial contamination, ensuring higher quality and longer product shelf life. MNPs can also be incorporated into chemical and biological sensors, enabling the design of fast and sensitive monitoring devices to assess food quality, from freshness to detection of allergens, food-borne pathogens or toxins. This review summarizes recent developments in the use of MNPs in the field of food science and technology. Additionally, a brief overview of MNP synthesis and characterization techniques is provided, as well as of the toxicity, biosafety and regulatory issues of MNPs in the agricultural, feed and food sectors.
