Detection of pesticide residues is important for ensuring food safety, and it has assumed increased significance. Traditional analytical methods are known for being destructive and cost- and time-intensive. In this study, depth-profiling Fourier transform infrared photoacoustic spectroscopy (FTIR-PAS) was successfully used as an in situ, nondestructive, and rapid method for detecting tricyclazole residues on three metal surfaces (copper, aluminum, and iron) and subsequently, on the surfaces of fresh rice leaves and ripe husks. Four moving mirror velocities, that is, 0.32, 0.63, 0.95, and 1.90 cm s were used for recording the spectra. The results indicated that the moving mirror velocity of 0.95 cm s was optimal for depth profiling, and the obtained spectra showed a strong absorption band at around 1200 cm, corresponding to the C-N bond in tricyclazole. This band could be used for monitoring tricyclazole residues on plant surfaces. Principal component analysis confirmed the detection of tricyclazole on the basis of its spectral information. Considering the scanning depth and the thickness of the plant cuticle, FTIR-PAS can be an effective means for detecting and monitoring similar organonitrogen pesticide residues.

Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is a highly sensitive analytical technique with excellent molecular specificity. However, separate pristine nanoparticles produce relatively weak Raman signals. It is necessary to focus on increasing the "hot-spot" density generated at the nanogaps between the adjacent nanoparticles (second-generation SERS hotspot), thus significantly boosting the Raman signal by creating an electromagnetic field.

The safety of dairy products is intrinsically linked to consumer health, and the exceedance of risk indicators, such as pesticide and veterinary drug residues, constitutes one of the primary issues affecting their quality and safety. To assess the safety of dairy products, it is crucial to develop accurate and reliable analytical methods for their detection. Food safety testing involving important indicators such as pesticide residues, veterinary drug residues, mycotoxins and unapproved additives has become a pivotal requirement in the industry field.

In this study, residues of 10 neonicotinoid insecticides were tested with 143 fresh samples of using the QuEChERS method combined with UPLC-MS/MS. Based on the residue results, the point estimation method was used to assess dietary risks for adults and children, and the cumulative risk was assessed according to the hazard index () and relative potency factor () methods. The results showed that 71 out of 143 samples of fresh sold in Hainan tested positive for neonicotinoid insecticides, with a detection rate of 49.

The highly selective and sensitive determination of pesticide residues in food is critical for human health protection. Herein, the specific selectivity of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) was proposed to construct an electrochemical sensor for the detection of carbendazim (CBD), one of the famous broad-spectrum fungicides, by combining with the synergistic effect of bioelectrocatalysis and nanocomposites. Gold nanoparticle-reduced graphene oxide (AuNP-rGO) composites were electrodeposited on a polished glassy carbon electrode (GCE).
