Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDetection of Exogenous Heavy Metal Pesticide Residues in Traditional Chinese Medicine Based on Fluorescent Carbon Quantum DotsYanan He, Shuyin WangThe analysis method based on fluorescent probes has received increasing attention due to its high sensitivity, fast response, and real-time visualization characteristics. Therefore, the application of fluorescent probes for rapid detection of heavy metal pesticide residues in traditional Chinese medicine is of great significance. This study innovatively synthesized B/N co-doped carbon quantum dots using 3-aminophenylboronic acid as the raw material, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 10 Apr 2026 · 1,610 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDetection of Pesticide Residue in Dams and Well Water in Jazan Area, Saudi ArabiaHasan Y. Al-Hatim, Deifalla Alrajhi, Abdul Jabbar Al-RajabThe application of pesticides indoors and on agricultural lands increased dramatically in recent years in the Jazan area (Saudi Arabia) to control termites and the vectors of diseases, such as Rift Valley Fever (RVF) and malaria. This practice increased the potential risk of pesticide contamination of surface water and groundwater. In this study, samples of 44 wells and 3 dams … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 5 · 3 Nov 2015 · 7,943 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNon-Target Inhibition of Antioxidant Enzymes in Honey Bees (A. mellifera and A. florea) Upon Pesticide ExposureAmal Ahmed Berjawi, Syed Salman Ashraf, Mohammad Ali Al-DeebUnderstanding how different insecticides influence bee health is very essential. The aim of this work was to evaluate enzyme kinetics and inhibition by insecticides in Apis mellifera and Apis florea. Tested enzymes showed variable affinity to substrates. In A. florea, glutathione S-transferase (GST) showed significantly higher affinity for its 1-Chloro-2,4-Dinitrobenzene (CDNB) substrate than in A. mellifera. Carbosulfan caused the highest … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 10 Apr 2020 · 7,394 accessesView PDFCite
