Abstract
The detection of food safety and quality is very significant throughout the food supply. Stable dual-emission copper-modified fluorescent carbon dots (Cu-CDs) were successfully synthesized by a simple and environment-friendly hydrothermal, which was used for the real-time detection of pesticide residues in agricultural products. By optimizing the reaction conditions, Cu-CDs showed two emission peaks, with the highest fluorescence intensities at 375 and 450 nm. The structure, chemical composition and optical properties of Cu-CDs were investigated by XRD, TEM and IR. The results showed that thiophanate methyl (TM) could induce fluorescence quenching of Cu-CDs with no other ligands by the electron transfer through π-π stacking. The synchronous response of the dual-emission sensor enhanced the specificity of TM, which showed remarkable anti-interference capability. The fluorescence quenching degree of Cu-CDs had a good linear relationship with the TM concentration; the low detection limit for a pear was 0.75 μM, and for an apple, 0.78 μM. The recoveries in the fruit samples were 79.70–91.15% and 81.20–93.55%, respectively, and the relative standard deviations (RSDs) were less than 4.23% for the pear and less than 3.78% for the apple. Thus, our results indicate the feasibility and reliability of our methods in detecting pesticide residues in agricultural products.

Abstract
The abuse of pesticides in agricultural land during pre- and post-harvest causes an increase of residue in agricultural products and pollution in the environment, which ultimately affects human health. Hence, it is crucially important to develop an effective detection method to quantify the trace amount of residue in food and water. However, with the rapid development of nanotechnology and considering the exclusive properties of nanomaterials, optical, and their integrated system have gained exclusive interest for accurately sensing of pesticides in food and agricultural samples to ensure food safety thanks to their unique benefit of high sensitivity, low detection limit, good selectivity and so on and making them a trending hotspot. This review focuses on recent progress in the past five years on nanomaterial-based optical, such as colorimetric, fluorescence, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and their integrated system for the monitoring of benzimidazole fungicide (including, carbendazim, thiabendazole, and thiophanate-methyl) residue in food and water samples. This review firstly provides a brief introduction to mentioned techniques, detection mechanism, applied nanomaterials, label-free detection, target-specific detection, etc. then their specific application. Finally, challenges and perspectives in the respective field are discussed.

Poly(L-DOPA)-mediated bimetallic core-shell nanostructures of gold and silver and their employment in SERS, catalytic activity, and cell viability. NANOTECHNOLOGY 2021; 32:315702. [PMID: 33878753 DOI: 10.1088/1361-6528/abf9c7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2021] [Accepted: 04/20/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Core-shell gold nanorod (AuNR)@silver (Ag) nanostructures with their unique properties have gained enormous interest and are widely utilized in various applications including sensor systems, catalytic reactions, diagnosis, and therapy. Despite the recent progress, simple, effective, low-cost, and easy-to-tune strategies are heavily required to fabricate these nanoparticles (NP) systems. For this, we propose the employment of the polymer of 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl-L-alanine (L-DOPA) as a ligand molecule. A conformal thin layer of polymer of L-DOPA (PLDOPA) with its various functional groups enabled the reduction of silver ions onto the AuNRs and stabilization of the resultant NPs without using any surfactant, reducing agent, and seed material. The shape and growth model of the AuNR@Ag nanostructures was manipulated by simply tuning the amount of silver ions. This procedure created different NP morphologies ranging from concentric to acentric/island shape core-shell nanostructures. Also, even at the highest Ag deposition, the PLDOPA layer is still conformally present onto the Au@Ag core-shell NRs. The unique properties of NP systems provided remarkable characteristics in surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, catalytic activity, and cell viability tests.
