Esterase 2 as a Fluorescent Biosensor for the Detection of Organophosphorus Compounds: Docking and Electronic Insights from Molecular Dynamics [PDF]
Organophosphorus compounds (OP) are mainly used in agriculture as pesticides. Unfortunately, each year many rural workers die intoxicated by those compounds. Sometimes the diagnosis of the exact molecule that caused the intoxication can be tardy. In this

New Trends in Biosensors for Organophosphorus Pesticides
Biosensors are sensitive and can be used as disposable sensors for environmental control. These biosensors are based either on inhibition of acyl cholinesterases acetylcholinesterase or butyrylcholinesterase) by organophosphorus compounds or on ...

A sweet emergency due to bitter poisoning—A case report
Organophosphorus compounds (OPC) are major components of pesticides and nerve gas agents. Self-harm by ingestion of OPC pesticides is one of the common problems encountered in the emergency room (ER), especially in developing countries such as India.

NHC‐Copper(I)‐Mediated Functionalization of White Phosphorus
White phosphorus is functionalized by N‐heterocyclic carbene supported copper(I) complexes through redox‐neutral steps. Treatment of the resulting complexes with electrophiles releases the ligands from the metal center as asymmetrically substituted organophosphorus butterfly compounds.
