The use of pesticides, to some extent, promoted the development of agricultural productivity, but on the other hand, it also brought series of negative effects, the indiscriminate abuse leaded to much pesticide residues in the vegetables and fruits, which can cause acute and chronic poisoning.
Ecalbio team develops a rapid method to accurately screen fruits and vegetables for the presence of organochlorine and organophosphorous pesticides based on a enzyme Inhibition principle.
The analysis of fruits and vegetables by disposable pipette extraction (DPX) has been demonstrated to be very useful. This method is very rapid, and does not require solvent evaporation or a separate concentration step.
It incorporates a fast, high sensitivity, low-cost, can meet standard of quality supervision, inspection department and consumer home self-test.
