Abstract
Organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) play an important role in agricultural production and the accurate detection of OP residues is essential to ensure food safety. Portable sensors are expected to be a potential device due to their high detection efficiency, easy-to-use processes and low cost. Due to the widespread popularity and powerful capabilities of smartphones, smartphone-based sensing systems have rapidly developed into ideal tools for portable detection, however, a systematic review on the detection of OPs is still lacking. Therefore, a comprehensive overview of sensors equipped with smartphones for OP detection in recent year is provided; this overview includes their sensing signals (colorimetric, fluorescent, chemiluminescent and electrochemical signals), detection mechanism, analysis applications, advantages/disadvantages and perspectives. Moreover, the progress of sensors equipped with smartphones for the detection of OPs in food is thoroughly summarized. This review contributes to food safety and the development of efficient and reliable methods for smartphone-based OPs detection.
