Fullerol (C60OH) has been shown to catalyze the trisodium citrate (TSC)-silver nitrate reaction to generate Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs). These AgNPs exhibit significant nanoplasmic surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS), and absorption (Abs). When an aptamer (Apt) adsorbs on
A novel label-free and enzyme-free detection strategy has been developed for the fluorescent detection of isocarbophos (ICP) using multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and G-quadruplex as the signal transducers. In this work, the split ICP aptamer were attached to a G-quadruplex

Although isocarbophos is a widely used insecticide, its toxicity to aquatic organisms has not been well characterized. In this study, zebrafish were exposed to isocarbophos at concentrations of 50 µg L-1 and 200 µg L-1 to assess its bioaccumulation, metabolic disruption, and oxidative stress.
Isofenphos-methyl (IFP) is a very active and persistent chiral insecticide. However, IFP has lower activity against acetylcholinesterases (AChEs). Previously, it was confirmed that phosphorothioate organophosphorus pesticides with N-alkyl (POPN) require activation by oxidative desulfuration and N-dealkylation. In this work, we
With increasing industrialization of food production, residues of organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) are more frequently found in the environment including rivers, lakes and soils. Extended exposure to OPs, even at a level below 1 nM, may lead to liver and central nervous
