Biotransformation of Methyl Parathion by Glutathione S-Transferases [PDF]
The organo(thio)phosphate esters are one of the most widely used classes of insecticides. Worldwide, organophosphate insecticides (OPs) result in numerous poisonings each year. In insects, glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) play an important role in OP resistance; limited data suggest that GST-mediated O-dealkylation occurs in humans as well.

Comparison between GC-MS-SIM and GC-ECD for the determination of residues of organochlorine and organophosphorus pesticides in Brazilian citrus essential oils. [PDF]
Óleos essenciais cítricos brasileiros (mandarina, laranja, limão, bergamota e tangerina) foram analisados a fim de determinar resíduos de pesticidas organoclorados (aldrin, clordano, dieldrin e dicofol) e organofosforados (clorpirifós metílico, dimetoato,

To overcome poor molecular recognition in dilute solutions of tetraphenylethylene‐embedded cyclo[6]arenes, three macrocycles with functionalized cavities featuring diazine groups as endo‐binding sites are synthesized. Their recognition affinity continuously improves with increasing hydrogen‐bond acceptance of diazine groups.

Aqueous synthesis of CdTe quantum dot as biological fluorescent probe for monitoring methyl parathion by fluoro-immunosensor [PDF]
Bioconjugation of quantum dots (QDs) provide high resolution in biological fluorescent labelling as a result of physical and optical properties of QDs. This intrinsic property of QDs can be made use of for sensitive detection of target analytes including

Strategy of Cu:ZnS QDs‐SA hydrogel for visual detection and simultaneous removal of Pb(II). ABSTRACT A novel composite fluorescent hydrogel composed of copper‐doped zinc sulfide quantum dots (Cu:ZnS QDs) was embedded in sodium alginate (SA). Fluorescence sensors were constructed on the basis of fluorescent hydrogels for nondestructive visual detection ...
