Abstract

The rapid detection of pesticides has become in recent years a major issue both for environmental control and food safety. Bioassays have the potentiality to tackle the problem and to give valuable information depending on the nature of the biological element used. In this paper, the recent literature for the biosensing of pesticides via inhibition systems is reviewed. Particularly, inhibition assay based on acetylcholinesterase and photoystem II are reported. A brief description of the different characteristics of the biological elements and their variants are firstly given. Recent findings are then grouped according to the main contribution given in sensing design or application to real samples
