Immunoassays are nowadays being employed for rapid contaminant analysis in clinical, environmental, and agrochemical samples. A thorough characterization of the antibody‒antigen interaction can bring light to the immunoreagent selection process...

Peptide linkers consisting of repeats of glycine and serine residues are commonly chosen by protein engineers to introduce flexible and hydrophilic spacers between protein domains. Given the popularity of these...

Monoclonal antibody-based techniques have become a useful analytical technology in the agro-food sector. Nowadays, residues of the recently registered fungicide fluopyram are increasingly being found in quality control programs. In...

Nowadays, instrumental methodologies and rapid bioanalytical techniques complement each other for the analysis of toxic chemical compounds. Fluxapyroxad was commercialized a few years ago as a fungicide and today it...

Carbon nanotubes are novel technological tools with multiple applications. The interaction between such nanoparticles and living organisms is nowadays a matter of keen research by academic and private institutions. In...

In recent years, a second generation of succinate-dehydrogenase-inhibitor (SDHI) fungicides has been introduced into the market for effective treatment of fruit and vegetable crops, with fluxapyroxad, boscalid, fluopyram, penflufen, bixafen,...

Haptens, bioconjugates, and antibodies for highly sensitive immunochemical analysis of the new-generation fungicide penthiopyrad are described. Two haptens with equivalent carboxylated linkers were prepared, and the purified active esters were...
