Background The detection of food quality and safety is important in the whole food supply
chain. In recent years, fluorescent detection technology has been extensively applied in food …

Carbon dots (CDs) are widely used in the detection of foodborne contaminants because of
their biocompatibility, photoluminescence stability, and ease of chemical modification. In …

Sustainable, scalable and green carbon dots (CDs) were derived from avocado seeds using
carbonization at different temperatures (250, 400, and 600° C) and were applied as …

The emergence of “superbugs” due to antibiotics overuse poses a significant threat to
human health and security. The development of sensitive and effective antibiotics detection …

Intrinsic dual-emission carbon dots (CDs) with long wavelength and self-calibration
attributes are critical in fluorescence sensing and imaging, but their synthesis remains a …

Dual-emission carbon dots with strong yellow fluorescence (Y-CDs) were prepared by one-
step hydrothermal method from p-aminophenol and ethylenediamine. Two emission centres …

Amino acids (AAs) are essential, important, and integral parts of the human body that play a
vital role in health. As important components of body metabolism, AAs are used as …

The content of deferasirox (DEF) in plasma is significant in β-thalassemia patient that needs
long-term transfusion therapy, while the effective and simple strategy for DEF monitoring is …

The importance of amino acids identification in biological systems has created expectation
to develop a sensitive method for their detection. In this work, an efficient core-shell …

Blue fluorescent carbon dots (PCDs) were prepared by hydrothermal method with Partridge
tea. The ethanol extract of Partridge tea (PEE) was found to emit red fluorescence. Thus, a …
