Organophosphorus pesticides are currently extensively applied on the control of agricultural and forestry pests. The number of poisonings and deaths caused by organophosphorus pesticides are increasing year by year. Because of the complex matrix, numerous interfering substances, and low poison content, pretreatment methods are crucial for the detection and analysis of such cases. As an adsorbent used for pretreatment, magnetic nanoparticles have the advantages of simple preparation, convenient modification, superparamagnetism, and hydrophilicity. Microextraction can be performed with small amount of magnetic nanoparticles in a short time, and the target substances can be separated with an external magnetic field. In this paper, the latest research achievements are reviewed. Based on the introduced characteristics and preparation methods of magnetic nanoparticles, this paper outlines the applications of different functionalized magnetic nanoparticles for the pretreatment of organophosphorus pesticides and predict the potential research prospects.
