A direct conjugation of organophosphorus acid anhydrolase (OPAA) with CdS quantum dots was prepared via arrested precipitation within the enzyme matrix. The bio-conjugate was found not only to retain enzyme conformational structure but also to retain enzyme activity and be effective at detecting diisopropyl fluorophosphate (DFP) at the micro molar level.

Industrial activities are a major source of organophosphorus flame retardants (OPFRs) and plasticizers in aquatic environments. This study investigated the distribution of 40 OPFRs in a river impacted by major industrial manufacturing plants in Eastern China by target analysis. Nontarget analysis using high-resolution mass spectrometry was further employed to identify novel organophosphorus compounds (NOPs).

Chlorpyrifos (CPF) is one of the most widely used organophosphorus pesticides all over the world. Unfortunately, long-term exposure to CPF may cause considerable toxicity to organisms. Some evidence suggests that the intestinal microbial community may be involved in regulating the toxicity of CPF.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising electrochemiluminescent (ECL) nanoemitters. Great endeavors have been made to optimize the inherent luminescent properties, yet most MOFs suffer from poor coreactant activation ability, resulting in limited ECL. Therefore, it is urgent to integrate and design efficient catalytic centers within MOFs.

The residues of organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) in food pose a huge threat to human health. Therefore, the development of detection methods with simple design and high sensitivity is urgently needed. Here, a colorimetric/chemiluminescence (CL) dual-mode aptasensor strategy with high selectivity and sensitivity for detecting Parathion-methyl (PM) was designed based on aptamer-regulated nanozyme activity.

Aryl organophosphorus flame retardants (aryl-OPFRs), commonly used product additives with close ties to daily life, have been regrettably characterized by multiple well-defined toxicity risks. Triphenyl phosphate (TPHP) and tri-o-cresyl phosphate (TOCP), two structurally similar aryl-OPFRs, were observed in our previous study to exhibit contrasting immunotoxic effects on THP-1 macrophages, yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study sought to address the knowledge gap by integrating transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses to elucidate the intricate mechanisms.
