Background Synthetic chemical pesticides play a significant role in increasing the overall
yield and productivity of agricultural foods by controlling and eradicating pests, insects, and …

Agricultural food crop yields have increased enormously due to the implementation of
chemical pesticides; however, their excessive and uncontrolled use has led to food …

Food safety is a prevalent concern around the world. As such, detection, removal, and
control of risks and hazardous substances present from harvest to consumption will always …

In this study, a novel highly sensitive colorimetric platform has been designed for malathion
assay based on Fe-N/C SAzyme. The as-synthesized SAzyme can directly oxidize 3, 3´, 5, 5´ …

Instrument-free, portable, and direct read-out mini-devices have wider application prospects
in various fields, especially for real-time/on-site sensing. Herein, combined with a paper …

Agri-food safety incidents not only threaten the life and health of consumers but also
seriously hinder the development of the food supply chain. It is generally accepted that the …

The global population growth demands intensification of anthropogenic processes, thus
leading to inter alia pollution of both land and aquatic environments with toxic organic …

Salmonella is one of the main causes of foodborne infectious diseases, posing a serious
threat to public health. It can enter the food supply chain at various stages of production …

Sensors for pesticides with high sensitivity have been urgently required to control food
safety, protect ecosystem and prevent disease. In this review, we provide an overview of …

Carbon dots (CDs) combined with a nanomaterial-based quencher has created an
innovative way for designing promising sensors. Herein, a novel fluorescent-sensing …
