“…Thus, in order to ensure water and food safety, the implementation of a quick, accurate, selective, and sensitive analytical technique for the herbicide’s residue detection is in demand. It has been determined that the fluorescence-based chemosensors afforded the considerable feasibility of rapid analysis, prominent specificity, and high sensitivity because of the portability, on-site suitability, cost-viability, high affectability, and instrument accessibility. − Taking into account the benefits of fluorescent chemosensors, the current study provides a rapid, simple, and selective fluorescence assay for detecting PDM in real food and water samples. The numerous fluorescence-based chemosensors including conjugated polymers, organic nanoparticles, nanosheets, quantum dots, nanoaggregates, metal–organic frameworks, semiconductor quantum dots, silica nanoparticles, carbon dots, and many others have been reported to recognize and quantify the toxic compounds.…”
