Key Points

To review recent advances in the application of microfluidic platforms across pesticide science, focusing on continuous-flow chemical synthesis, nanoformulation engineering, and trace residue detection.
Systematically surveyed microfluidic applications categorized into continuous-flow chemical synthesis, nanoformulation engineering, and integrated analytical sensing.
Evaluated microreactor performance across hazardous chemical transformations and assessed lab-on-a-chip integration with electrochemical, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and smartphone readouts.
Continuous-flow microreactors enhanced reaction selectivity, safety, and scalability during hazardous transformations, including nitration, diazotization, and catalytic hydrogenation.
Microfluidic engineering achieved precise control over particle size and structural uniformity, conferring superior colloidal stability and programmable release kinetics compared to bulk methods.
Lab-on-a-chip analytical systems enabled rapid, sensitive, and on-site detection of multiple pesticide classes at trace residue levels.
