Pesticide detection with a liposome-based nano-biosensor   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Monitoring of the organophosphorus pesticides dichlorvos and paraoxon at very low levels has been achieved with liposome-based nano-biosensors. The enzyme acetylcholinesterase was effectively stabilized within the internal nano-environment of the liposomes. Within the liposomes, the pH sensitive fluorescent indicator pyranine was also immobilized for the optical transduction of the enzymatic activity. Increasing amounts of pesticides lead to the decrease of the enzymatic activity for the hydrolysis of the acetylcholine and thus to a decrease in the fluorescent signal of the pH indicator. The decrease of the liposome biosensors signal is relative to the concentration of dichlorvos and paraoxon down to 10−10 M levels. This biosensor system has been applied successfully to the detection of total toxicity in drinking water samples. Also a colorimetric screening device for pesticide analysis has been evaluated.  相似文献

A potentiometric enzyme electrode for the direct measurement of organophosphate (OP) nerve agents was developed. The basic element of this enzyme electrode was a pH electrode modified with an immobilized organophosphorus hydrolase (OPH) layer formed by cross-linking OPH with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and glutaradehyde. OPH catalyses the hydrolysis of organophosphorus pesticides to release protons, the concentration of which is proportional to the amount of hydrolysed substrate. The sensor signal and response time was optimized with respect to the buffer pH, ionic concentration of buffer, temperature, and units of OPH immobilized using paraoxon as substrate. The best sensitivity and response time were obtained using a sensor constructed with 500 IU of OPH and operating in pH 8.5, 1 mM HEPES buffer. Using these conditions, the biosensor was used to measure as low as 2 microM of paraoxon, ethyl parathion, methyl parathion and diazinon. The biosensor was completely stable for at least one month when stored in pH 8.5, 1 mM HEPES + 100 mM NaCl buffer at 4 degrees C.  相似文献

Toxic contamination of commonly consumed food products and water due to food chain vulnerability via agricultural products and commodities is a serious health hazard. This study reports on Santa Barbara Amorphous (SBA-15), a type of mesoporous silica nanoparticles, for efficient and stable acetylcholinesterase (AChE) adhesion toward detection of toxic pesticides. AChE was immobilized to the inert framework of mesoporous materials viz. SBA-15 with a proficient hydrolytic response toward acetylthiocholine. The immobilized system acts as a biosensor for the detection of pesticides, which are organophosphorus compounds in food. Both the SBA-15 and immobilized SBA-15 were characterized to give an insight on the physiochemical and morphological modification properties. The enzyme activity was accessed by Ellman’s spectrophotometric bioassay for bare and enzyme-immobilized SBA-15 that resulted in promising enzymatic activity with the counterpart. Enzyme stability was also studied, which exhibited that immobilized AChE retained its catalytic activity up to 60 days and retained 80% of the hydrolytic activity even at 37°C. On the basis of the success of immobilized enzyme (covalent) being inhibited by acetylthiocholine, the sensor was administered for the inhibition by monocrotophos and dimethoate that are used widely as pesticides in agricultural. The inhibitory concentration (IC50) value was found to be 2.5 ppb for monocrotophos and 1.5 ppb for dimethoate inhibiting immobilized AChE. This was verified using cyclic voltammetry, an electrochemical analysis thus proving that the SBA-15@AChE complex could be used as a sensitive and highly stable sensor for detecting the concentration of hazardous pesticide compounds.  相似文献

A new highly sensitive amperometric method for the detection of organophosphorus compounds has been developed. The method is based on a ferophthalocyanine chemically modified carbon paste electrode coupled with acetylcholinesterase and choline oxidase co-immobilized onto the surface of a dialysis membrane. The activity of cholinesterase is non-competitively inhibited in the presence of pesticides. The highest sensitivity to inhibitors was found for a membrane containing low enzyme loading and this was subsequently used for the construction of an amperometric biosensor for pesticides. Analyses were done using acetylcholine as substrate; choline produced by hydrolysis in the enzymatic layer was oxidized by choline-oxidase and subsequently H(2)O(2) produced was electrochemically detected at +0.35 V vs. Ag/AgCl. The decrease of substrate steady-state current caused by the addition of pesticide was used for evaluation. With this approach, up to 10(-10) M of paraoxon and carbofuran can be detected.  相似文献

We report an analytical method using a thin film electro-acoustic resonator for the detection of organophosphorus pesticides. The acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme was immobilized on the surface of the resonator. In the presence of organophosphorus compounds, the degree of inhibitory effect of organophosphorus compounds on the AChE activity and the concentration of pesticides were detected in real time by measuring the frequency shift of the resonator. The proposed device has a remarkably low detection limit of 1.8×10(-11)M and obvious advantages such as small size, simple operation, and integrated circuit compatibility, providing a promising tool for pesticide analysis.  相似文献

The fiber-optic biosensor consisting of an acetylcholinesterase (AChE)-immobilized Langmuir–Blodegtt (LB) film was developed to detect organophosphorus compounds in contaminated water. The sensing scheme was based on the decrease of yellow product, o-nitrophenol, from a colorless substrate, o-nitrophenyl acetate, due to the inhibition by organophosphorus compounds on AChE. Absorbance change of the product as the output of enzyme reaction was detected and the light was guided through the optical fibers. The enzyme portion of the sensor system was fabricated by the LB technique for formation of the enzyme film. AChE-immobilized LB film was formed by adsorbing the enzyme molecules onto a viologen monolayer using the electrostatic force. The proposed kinetics for irreversible inhibition of organophosphorus compounds on AChE agreed well with the experimental data. The surface topography of AChE-immobilized LB film was investigated by atomic force microscope (AFM). The immobilized AChE had the maximum activity at pH 7. The proposed biosensor could successfully detect the organophosphorus compounds upto 2 ppm and the response time to steady signal of the sensor was about 10 min.  相似文献

In this work, a highly sensitive acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibition-based amperometric biosensor has been developed. Firstly, a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was modified with chitosan (Chits). Then, hollow gold nanospheres (HGNs) were absorbed onto the surface of chitosan based on the strong affinity through electrostatic adsorption. After that, l-cysteine (l-cys) was assembled on HGNs through Au–S bond. The hollow gold nanospheres were prepared by using Co nanoparticles as sacrificial templates and characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and ultraviolet spectra, respectively. Finally, AChE was immobilized with covalent binding via –COOH groups of l-cysteine onto the modified GCE. The AChE biosensor fabrication process was characterized by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy methods with the use of ferricyanide as an electrochemical redox indicator. Under optimum conditions, the inhibition rates of pesticides were proportional to their concentrations in the range of 0.1–150 and 0.1–200 μg L?1 for chlorpyrifos and carbofuran, respectively, the detection limits were 0.06 μg L?1 for chlorpyrifos and 0.08 μg L?1 for carbofuran. Moreover, the biosensor exhibited a good stability and reproducibility and was suitable for trace detection of pesticide residues in vegetables and fruits.  相似文献

Quantum dots (QD) are semiconductor fluorescent nanoparticles, which can be made use of for environmental monitoring with high sensitivity. In view of the alarming levels of pesticides and herbicides being used in agriculture practices, there is a need for their rapid, sensitive and specific detection in food and environmental samples, as pesticides and herbicides are harmful to living beings even at trace levels. Present study was carried out to develop a reliable and rapid method for analysis and detection of 2,4-D (herbicide) using cadmium telluride quantum dot nanoparticle (CdTe QD). Fluoroimmunoassay based on the fluorescent property of quantum dot was used along with immunoassay to detect 2,4-D. CdTe capped with mercaptopropionic acid, was conjugated using N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC) and a coupling reagent like N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) to alkaline phosphatase (ALP) which was in turn conjugated to 2,4-D molecule. Anti 2,4-D-IgG antibodies were immobilized in an immunoreactor column using Sepharose CL-4B as an inert matrix. The detection of 2,4-D was carried out by fluoroimmunoassay-based biosensor using competitive binding between conjugated 2,4-D-ALP-CdTe and free 2,4-D with immobilized anti 2,4-D antibodies in an immunoreactor column. It was possible to detect 2,4-D upto 250pgmL(-1). Present study also emphasizes on the resonance energy transfer between ALP and CdTe QD as a result of bioconjugation, which can be used for future biosensor development based on quantum dot-biomolecular interactions.  相似文献

An amperometric microbial biosensor for the direct measurement of organophosphate nerve agents is described. The sensor is based on a carbon paste electrode containing genetically engineered cells expressing organophosphorus hydrolase (OPH) on the cell surface. OPH catalyzes the hydrolysis of organophosphorus pesticides with p-nitrophenyl substituent such as paraoxon, parathion and methyl parathion to p-nitrophenol. The later is detected anodically at the carbon transducer with the oxidation current being proportional to the nerve-agent concentration. The sensor sensitivity was optimized with respect to the buffer pH and loading of cells immobilized using paraoxon as substrate. The best sensitivity was obtained using a sensor constructed with 10 mg of wet cell weight per 100 mg of carbon paste and operating in pH 8.5 buffer. Using these conditions, the biosensor was used to measure as low as 0.2 microM paraoxon and 1 microM methyl parathion with very good sensitivity, excellent selectivity and reproducibility. The microbial biosensor had excellent storage stability, retaining 100% of its original activity when stored at 4 degrees C for up to 45 days.  相似文献

A new method for obtaining stable butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) samples based on the enzyme immobilization in starch and gelatin gels followed by drying is proposed. Coimmobilization of BuChE with the thiol group indicator 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic) acid did not reduce the activity of BuChE, which allowed us to simplify the procedure and reduce the time of analysis of organophosphorus pesticides. The resulting immobilized samples retained activity for at least 300 days. BuChE samples based on the starch gel showed a greater sensitivity in the determination of pesticides as compared to the samples based on the gelatin gel.  相似文献

An optical microbial biosensor was described for the detection of methyl parathion pesticide. Whole cells of Flavobacterium sp. were immobilized by trapping in glass fiber filter and were used as biocomponent along with optic fiber system. Flavobacterium sp. has the organophosphorus hydrolase enzyme, which hydrolyzes the methyl parathion into detectable product p-nitrophenol. The immobilized microbial biocomponent was disposable, cost-effective and showed high reproducibility and uniformity. The detection of methyl parathion by the use of disposable microbial biocomponent with optical biosensor was simple, single step and direct measurement of very low quantity of the sample. The home made reaction vessel was small and needed only 75 microl of sample. A lower detection limit 0.3 microM methyl parathion was estimated from the linear range (4-80 microM) of calibration plot of organophosphorus hydrolase enzymatic assay. The applicability to synthetic methyl parathion spiked samples was demonstrated.  相似文献

Organophosphorus (OP) compounds are one of the most hazardous chemicals used as insecticides/pesticide in agricultural practices. A large variety of OP compounds are hydrolyzed by organophosphorus hydrolases (OPH; EC 3.1.8.1). Therefore, OPHs are among the most suitable candidates that could be used in designing enzyme-based sensors for detecting OP compounds. In this work, a novel nanobiosensor for the detection of paraoxon was designed and fabricated. More specifically, OPH was covalently embedded onto chitosan and the enzyme–chitosan bioconjugate was then immobilized on negatively charged gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) electrostatically. The enzyme was immobilized on AuNPs without chitosan as well, to compare the two systems in terms of detection limit and enzyme stability under different pH and temperature conditions. Coumarin 1, a competitive inhibitor of the enzyme, was used as a fluorogenic probe. The emission of coumarin 1 was effectively quenched by the immobilized Au-NPs when bound to the developed nanobioconjugates. However, in the presence of paraoxon, coumarin 1 left the nanobioconjugate, leading to enhanced fluorescence intensity. Moreover, compared to the immobilized enzyme without chitosan, the chitosan-immobilized enzyme was found to possess decreased Km value by more than 50%, and increased Vmax and Kcat values by around 15% and 74%, respectively. Higher stability within a wider range of pH (2–12) and temperature (25–90°C) was also achieved. The method worked in the 0 to 1050?nM concentration ranges, and had a detection limit as low as 5?×?10?11 M.  相似文献

An optical fiber biosensor for the determination of the pesticides propoxur (Baygon®) and carbaryl, two of the most commonly used carbamate insecticides in vegetable crops, is described. A pH indicator, chlorophenol red, is used as optical transducer of the inhibition of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase by the analytes. The biorecognition element is covalently immobilized onto controlled pore glass beads (CPG) and packed in a thermostatized bioreactor connected to a flow-through cell that contains CPG-immobilized chlorophenol red placed at the common end of a bifurcated fiber optic bundle. In the presence of a constant acetylcholine concentration, the colour of the pH sensitive layer changes and the measured reflectance signal can be related to the carbamate concentration in the sample solution. The performance of the biosensor has been optimized using a flow injection system. The linear dynamic range for the determination of carbaryl and propoxur spans from 0.8 to 3.0 mg l−1 and from 0.03 to 0.50 mg l−1, respectively. The detection limit (3 s) of the biosensor for propoxur (0.4 ng) is lower than that measured for carbaryl (25 ng). Reproducibility, stability and interference studies of the optical device are reported. The biosensor has been applied to the determination of propoxur in spiked vegetables (onion and lettuce) using ultrasound extraction, achieving recovery values between 93 and 95% for onion samples at the different concentration levels assayed.  相似文献

A simple method of enzyme immobilization was investigated which is useful for fabrication of enzyme sensors based on polymeric ion-selective membranes. The enzyme membrane was built by coating a thin hydrophilic polyurethane (HPU) film directly mixed with an enzyme over an underlying polyurethane (PU)-based ion-selective membrane. This highly simple method of enzyme immobilization was applied to the fabrication of a potentiometric butyrylcholinesterase-based biosensor for the determination of organophosphorus pesticides. The enzyme was well entrapped within the HPU film and the intrinsic potentiometric response of the underlying ion-selective PU membrane was not influenced significantly by the outer HPU/enzyme membrane. The enzyme electrode was optimized by changing systematically the composition of the enzyme membrane to evaluate the effect of the changes on sensor response. The sensor was successfully applied to the analysis of paraoxon, an organophosphorus pesticide.  相似文献

d-Amino acid oxidase (DAAO) purified from goat kidney was immobilized covalently via N-ethyl-N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide (EDC) and N-hydroxy succinimide (NHS) chemistry onto poly indole 5-carboxylic acid (Pin5-COOH)/zinc sulfide nanoparticles (ZnSNPs) hybrid film electrodeposited on surface of an Au electrode. A highly sensitive d-amino acid biosensor was constructed using this enzyme electrode as working electrode, Ag/AgCl as reference electrode, and Pt wire as auxiliary electrode connected through potentiostat. The biosensor showed optimum response within 3 s at pH 7.5 and 35 °C, when polarized at 0.15 V vs. Ag/AgCl. There was a linear relationship between biosensor response (mA) and d-alanine concentration in the range 0.001–2.0 mM. The sensitivity of the biosensor was 58.85 μA cm?2 mM?1 with a detection limit of 0.001 mM (S/N = 3). The enzyme electrode was used 120 times over a period of 2 months when stored at 4 °C. The biosensor has an advantage over earlier enzyme sensors that it has no leakage of enzyme during reuse and is unaffected by the external environment due to the protective layer of poly indole-5-carboxylic acid film. The biosensor was evaluated and employed for measurement of d-amino acid level in fruits and vegetables.  相似文献

The heavy use of organophosphorus pesticides in northeastern China strongly affects the ecological functions and the quality of the soil environment. In this work, a 30-day soil incubation experiment was conducted to evaluate the potential of using soil available P and the activities of soil dehydrogenase and acid phosphatase as indicators of the application of methamidophos and glyphosate. Two kinds of unpolluted soils, phaiozem and burozem, were selected as the test soils. The higher application rate of organophosphorus pesticide to the two soils caused more release of PO4 3? which finally entered the soil available P pool, suggesting that soil available P is one of the effective chemical markers for biodegradation of organophosphorus pesticides. Methamidophos exhibited a significant inhibitory effect on the activity of soil dehydrogenase. The extent of enzyme inhibition was almost positively correlated with the insecticide concentration, and the enzyme activity was gradually restored after day 15. However, its effect on soil acid phosphatase activity (stimulation or inhibition) seemed to be indefinite, and varied with the application rate, soil type, and incubation time. In the case of glyphosate, soil acid phosphatase activity was depressed significantly and the depressing extent could be a function of herbicide concentration and incubation time, but soil dehydrogenase activity showed an irregular variation with the herbicide application rate and soil type. In general, dehydrogenase activity was a good biochemical indicator for the biodegradation of methamidophos, but for glyphosate biodegradation the indicator was acid phosphatase activity.  相似文献

We have evaluated the potential of plasma albumin to provide a sensitive biomarker of exposure to commonly used organophosphorus pesticides in order to complement the widely used measure of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibition. Rat or human plasma albumin binding by tritiated-diisopropylfluorophosphate (3H-DFP) was quantified by retention of albumin on glass microfibre filters. Preincubation with unlabelled pesticide in vitro or dosing of F344 rats with pesticide in vivo resulted in a reduction in subsequent albumin radiolabelling with 3H-DFP, the decrease in which was used to quantify pesticide binding. At pesticide exposures producing approximately 30% inhibition of AChE, rat plasma albumin binding in vitro by azamethiphos (oxon), chlorfenvinphos (oxon), chlorpyrifos-oxon, diazinon-oxon and malaoxon was reduced from controls by 9±1%, 67±2%, 56±2%, 54±2% and 8±1%, respectively. After 1 h of incubation with 19 µM 3H-DFP alone, the level of binding to rat or human plasma albumins reached 0.011 or 0.039 moles of DFP per mole of albumin, respectively. This level of binding could be further increased by raising the concentration of 3H-DFP, increasing the 3H-DFP incubation time, or by substitution of commercial albumins for native albumin. Pesticide binding to albumin was presumed covalent since it survived 24 h dialysis. After dosing rats with pirimiphos-methyl (dimethoxy) or chlorfenvinphos (oxon) (diethoxy) pesticides, the resultant albumin binding were still significant 7 days after dosing. As in vitro, dosing of rats with malathion did not result in significant albumin binding in vivo. Our results suggest albumin may be a useful additional biomonitor for moderately low-level exposures to several widely used pesticides, and that this binding differs markedly between pesticides.  相似文献

A new biosensor based on catalase enzyme immobilized on electrochemically constructed polyaniline (PANI) film modified with glutaraldehyde has been developed for the determination of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in milk samples. Assembly processes of polyaniline and immobilization of the enzyme were monitored with the help of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Amperometric measurements have been performed at cathodic peak (?0.3?V vs. Ag/AgCI) which was attributed to reduction of PANI. Hydrogen peroxide was determined by using amperometric method at ?0.3?V. The biosensor responses were correlated linearly with the hydrogen peroxide concentrations between 5.0?×?10?6 and 1.0?×?10?4?M by amperometric method. Detection limit of the biosensor is 2.18?×?10?6?M for H2O2. In the optimization studies of the biosensor, some parameters such as optimum pH, temperature, concentration of aniline, amount of enzyme, and number of scans during electropolymerization were investigated.  相似文献
