Rapid sampling and multicomponent analysis are vital in pesticide residue detection. In this work, we proposed a SERS platform to detect three kinds of pesticides on apple peels simultaneously by a straightforward “press and peel off” method. The flexible Au/dragonfly
Interpreting variable laboratory measurements of Helicoverpa zea Boddie susceptibility to toxins from Bacillus thuringiensis Berliner (Bt) has been challenging due to a lack of clear evidence to document declining field control. Research that links laboratory measurements of susceptibility to survival

In this work, we report a biomimetic synthesis route of 3D Ag nanofilm/glasswing butterfly wing hybrids (Ag-G.b.) by magnetron sputtering technology. The 3D surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate is fabricated from an original chitin-based nanostructure, which serves as a bio-scaffold

Organophosphates and carbamates represent alternative insecticides in managing the tobacco-adapted form of the green peach aphid (TGPA), Myzus persicae (Sulzer), a major pest of tobacco in the United States and around the world. General esterases that detoxify these insecticides were

To study the toxic effect of chronic exposure to acephate at low-dose levels, a metabolomics approach based on ultra-performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS) was applied. Three different doses of 0.5 mg/kg/day, 1.5 mg/kg/day, and 4.5 mg/kg/day acephate were administered to
