Investigation of pesticide residue removal effect of gelatinized starch using surface-enhanced Raman scattering mapping
Food Chemistry(2021)
摘要
This study investigated the effectiveness of gelatinized starch (GS) in the removal of surface and internalized pesticide residues from basil leaves. Surface activity of GS was confirmed by surface tension and fluorescence study. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SEES) mapping was applied for in situ and real-time tracking of pesticides over time. Results showed that gelatinized starch has better and safer pesticide removing effect compared to commercial surfactants. Simulation study showed that starch fragment can adjust its three-dimensional conformation according to the size of the guest with similar to four repeating alpha-1,4-D-glucopyranose residues interacting efficiently with pesticides. However, washing by small molecular weight surfactants will lead to a "secondary contamination" due to its amphilphilic nature and small molecular size, which can escort pesticide deeper into the leaf. Due to the wide availability, easy fabrication, efficient rinsing effect and bio-safety nature, GS should be highly recommended in family practice.
