When labelled uracil was supplied to the solution bathing the cambial surfaces of bark strips of willow, uptake into the sieve elements took place as evidenced by the appearance of radioactivity in the honeydew of aphids feeding on the strips. When maleic hydrazide (MH) was also applied an inhibition of uracil uptake was observed. However uracil seemed to have no effect on MH uptake. The type of inhibition described above showed similarities to classical competitive inhibitors of enzymes.

Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) in cereal crops is a prevalent phenomenon that impacts grain yield and quality. Several PHS inhibitory compounds were screened and identified in previous studies, such as eugenol (EUG), maleic hydrazide (MH), coumarin (COU), etc. However, few studies have focused on the combination of PHS inhibitors, and the inhibitory mechanism remains unclear.

Maleic hydrazide (MH) is a commonly used plant growth regulator and herbicide. However, due to its potential mutagenicity, carcinogenicity, genotoxicity, and cytotoxicity, sensitive and rapid detection of MH residues in foods is crucial. Herein, a sensitive and reliable surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensor for MH based on a self-constructed hydrogel SERS platform is proposed for the first time.

Plant protection products (PPPs) play a fundamental role in the maintenance of agricultural fields and private/public green areas, however they can contaminate zones nearby the application point due to wind drift, resuspension, and evaporation. Several studied have deepened the relationship between PPPs and living beings' health, suggesting that these products might have a negative influence. Some PPPs belong to the class of Emergent Contaminants, which are compounds whose knowledge on the environmental distribution and influence is limited.

The accurate determination of polar cationic pesticides in food poses a challenge due to their high polarity and trace levels in complex matrices. This study hypothesized that the use of halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) can significantly enhance the extraction efficiency and sensitivity of these analytes because of their rich hydroxyl groups and cation exchange sites. Therefore, we chemically incorporated HNTs with organic polymer monoliths for in-tube solid-phase microextraction (SPME).
