Herein we report a multiplated and biopolymeric-based optical bioassay for organophosphate detection based on the use of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) as biocomponent and biopolymeric electrospun fibrous mats as eco-designed supports for AChE immobilisation. The principle of the detection relays on the decrease of enzymatic activity due to the capability of the organophosphorus pesticides to irreversibly inhibit AChE, which is optically detected using Ellman colorimetric method. The proposed bioassay consists in a novel, cost-effective, and multiplex-based 96-well system, in combination with customised biopolymeric membranes modified with AChE, with the aim to deliver a sustainable analytical tool.
