Abstract
The green synthesis of carbon dots (CDs) from natural sources is a challenging goal. Herein CDs are produced from Agapanthus africanus (L.) Hoffmann leaves by carbonization at 200/300 °C for 2/3 h. Samples are named CZ-X-Y, where Z, X, and Y represent carbonization, temperature, and time, respectively. CZ-200-3, CZ-300-2, and CZ-300-3 CDs have average sizes of 3.7 ± 0.7, 5.3 ± 1.2, and 5.1 ± 1.6 nm, respectively. Their surface, devoid of chlorophyll, contains ─OH, ─C═O, and ─C(═O)OH groups and sylvite. Isolated CZ-300-3 emits at 400 nm (excited at 260 nm) and exhibits an emission quantum yield (QY) value of 2 ± 1%. Embedding in the d-U(600)/d-(900) di-ureasil matrices resulted in transparent films with emission intensity maxima at 420/450 nm (360 nm), and QY values of 7 ± 1/16 ± 2% (400 nm). The enhancement of the QY value of the bare CDs agrees with an efficient passivation provided by the hybrid host. The hydrophilic CZ-300-3 CDs also exerted a marked surface modifying role, changing the surface roughness and the wettability of the hybrid films.

Abstract
The detection of anions using carbon dots (CDs) has received less attention compared to cations. Therefore, the present study aimed to develop a fluorescence sensor based on carbon dots (CDs) capable of detecting S2- in real water samples. The CDs were successfully prepared from the residues of a traditional Chinese herb, Gardenia, which emitted green photoluminescence (PL) under ultraviolet light irradiation. The as-prepared CDs were quasi-spherical in shape and ranged in size from 10 to 30 nm. Different detailed analyses proved that the CDs had good morphology, various functional groups, high water solubility, great optical features, and excellent stability under diverse environmental conditions. The ion detection showed that only Ag+ had the strongest fluorescence quenching effect on the CDs, however, the addition of S2- could recover their fluorescence. Based on these results, an "off-on" fluorescence sensor was achieved to selectively detect the concentration of S2- in real water samples with a limit of detection (LOD) of 39 μM, which further expanded the application of residues from traditional Chinese herbal medicine.

Abstract
To establish a new method for detecting crystal violet (CV), a harmful dye, herein, a genre of novel biomass carbon dots (CDs) was synthesized via a microwave method and employed as a fluorescent probe, in which water spinach and polyethylene glycol (PEG) performed as raw materials. Based on the inner filter effect (IFE) between the luminescent CDs and CV, the blue emission of this probe at 430 nm could be quenched by CV. Hence, a new strategy was proposed to selectively determine CV in aquaculture ambient. Moreover, under the optimal experiment conditions, this method showed a good linearity between the concentration of CV (c) and fluorescence quenching rate (ΔF/F0) in the concentration range of 4-200 μmol/L with the corresponding correlation coefficient (r) and the detection limit of 0.997 and 710 nmol/L, respectively. With advantages of environmental protectivity, sensitivity, affordability, and user-friendliness, the facilely fabricated CDs could be successfully applied in detecting CV in aquaculture samples, providing a technical foundation for monitoring the pollution of CV and ensuring the quality and safety of aquatic products.

Abstract
Nanozymes with multiple functionalities endow biochemical sensing with more sensitive and efficient analytical performance by widening the sensing modes. Meanwhile, the target-oriented design of multifunctional nanozymes for certain biosensing remains challenging. Herein, a constructive strategy of doping iron into polymer dots (PDs) to achieve nanozymes with excellent oxidase-mimicking and peroxidase-mimicking activity is proposed. Compared with the Fe-free PDs prepared under the same mild condition, the Fe-doped PDs (Fe-PDs) exhibit greatly boosted fluorescence at 500 nm. While applying 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) as a chromogenic substrate, the fluorescence of the Fe-PDs can be further quenched by oxTMB due to the inner filter effect (IFE). Inspired by this, a simple but efficient colorimetric and fluorometric dual-mode sensing platform is developed for monitoring the reducing substances ascorbic acid (AA), α-glucosidase (α-Glu), and its inhibitors (AGIs). We believe that such multifunctional enzyme-mimic materials will provoke the exploration of multimode sensing strategy with strong practicality to serve as a versatile tool in biochemical sensing.

Abstract
A carbon-rich material (DESysChar) was prepared from polysaccharide within a deep eutectic system (DESys) containing oxalic acid, and systematically characterized using various analytical techniques. The investigation of reaction mechanism revealed concurrent dehydration and etherification processes. This study commenced with the extraction of plant polysaccharide using the DESys-based mechanochemical extraction method from Dendrobium officinale. Subsequently, the DESys method was used to carbonize the extracted Dendrobium officinale polysaccharide and produce DESysChar. DESysChar was then used for the adsorption and determination of pollutants in water. This study represents a significant advancement in eco-friendly material synthesis, enabling the low-temperature (120 °C) carbonization of plant-derived polysaccharides, thereby reducing energy consumption and environmental impact. The effective adsorption of methylene blue by DESysChar underscores its potential in environmental remediation. This study presents a more responsible and efficient approach to polysaccharide extraction and carbonization, addressing environmental concerns. Embracing the 4S workflow (involving Sustainable raw materials converted into Sustainable degradable products, by using Sustainable technology throughout the process to create a Sustainable environment) promotes sustainability in material development, laying the foundation for future eco-friendly practices in various industries. In summary, this study propels sustainable polysaccharide development for widespread use.

Abstract
Over the past decade, carbon dots (CDs) have emerged as some of the extremely popular carbon nanostructures for diverse applications. The advantages of sustainable CDs, characterized by their exceptional photoluminescence (PL), high water solubility/dispersibility, non-toxicity, and biocompatibility, substantiate their potential for a wide range of applications in sensing and biology. Moreover, nature offers plant- and animal-derived precursors for the sustainable synthesis of CDs and their doped variants. These sources are not only readily accessible, inexpensive, and renewable but are also environmentally benign green biomass. This review article presents in detail the production of sustainable CDs from various animal and human biomass through bottom-up synthetic methods, including hydrothermal, microwave, microwave-hydrothermal, and pyrolysis methods. The resulting CDs exhibit a uniform size distribution, possibility of heteroatom doping, surface passivation, and remarkable excitation wavelength-dependent/independent emission and up-conversion PL characteristics. Consequently, these CDs have been successfully utilized in multiple applications, such as bioimaging and the detection of various analytes, including heavy metal ions. Finally, a comprehensive assessment is presented, highlighting the prospects and challenges associated with animal/human biomass-derived CDs for multifaceted applications.

Nanocellulose-Based Passivated-Carbon Quantum Dots (P-CQDs) for Antimicrobial Applications: A Practical Review. Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:2660. [PMID: 37376306 PMCID: PMC10305638 DOI: 10.3390/polym15122660] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2023] [Revised: 05/08/2023] [Accepted: 05/16/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Passivated-carbon quantum dots (P-CQDs) have been attracting great interest as an antimicrobial therapy tool due to their bright fluorescence, lack of toxicity, eco-friendly nature, simple synthetic schemes, and possession of photocatalytic functions comparable to those present in traditional nanometric semiconductors. Besides synthetic precursors, CQDs can be synthesized from a plethora of natural resources including microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) and nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC). Converting MCC into NCC is performed chemically via the top-down route, while synthesizing CODs from NCC can be performed via the bottom-up route. Due to the good surface charge status with the NCC precursor, we focused in this review on synthesizing CQDs from nanocelluloses (MCC and NCC) since they could become a potential source for fabricating carbon quantum dots that are affected by pyrolysis temperature. There are several P-CQDs synthesized with a wide spectrum of featured properties, namely functionalized carbon quantum dots (F-CQDs) and passivated carbon quantum dots (P-CQDs). There are two different important P-CQDs, namely 2,2'-ethylenedioxy-bis-ethylamine (EDA-CQDs) and 3-ethoxypropylamine (EPA-CQDs), that have achieved desirable results in the antiviral therapy field. Since NoV is the most common dangerous cause of nonbacterial, acute gastroenteritis outbreaks worldwide, this review deals with NoV in detail. The surficial charge status (SCS) of the P-CQDs plays an important role in their interactions with NoVs. The EDA-CQDs were found to be more effective than EPA-CQDs in inhibiting the NoV binding. This difference may be attributed to their SCS as well as the virus surface. EDA-CQDs with surficial terminal amino (-NH2) groups are positively charged at physiological pH (-NH3+), whereas EPA-CQDs with surficial terminal methyl groups (-CH3) are not charged. Since the NoV particles are negatively charged, they are attracted to the positively charged EDA-CQDs, resulting in enhancing the P-CQDs concentration around the virus particles. The carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were found to be comparable to the P-CQDs in the non-specific binding with NoV capsid proteins, through complementary charges, π-π stacking, and/or hydrophobic interactions.

Abstract
Fluorescent carbon dots (CDs) have been identified as potential nanosensors and attracted tremendous research interests in wide areas including anti-counterfeiting, environmental and biological sensing and imaging in considering of the attractive optical properties. In this work, we present a CDs based fluorescent sensor from polyvinylpyrrolidone, citric acid, and methionine as precursors by hydrothermal approach. The selective quantifying of Fe3+ and ascorbic acid (AA) are based on the fluorescent on-off-on process, in which the fluorescent quenching is induced by the coordination of the Fe3+ on the surface of the CDs, while the fluorescence recovery is mainly attributed to redox reaction between Fe3+ and AA, breaking the coordination and bringing the fluorescence back. Inspired by the good water solubility and biocompatibility, significant photostability, superior photobleaching resistance as well as high selectivity, sensitivity, and interference immunity, which are constructed mainly from the N,S-doping and methionine surface functionalization, the CDs have not only been employed as fluorescence ink in multiple anti-counterfeiting printing and confidential document writing or transmitting, but also been developed as promising fluorescence sensors in solution and solid by CDs doped test strips and hydrogels for effectively monitoring and removing of Fe3+ and AA in environmental aqueous solution. The CDs have been also implemented as effective diagnostic candidates for imaging and tracking of Fe3+ and AA in living cells, accelerating the understanding of their function and importance in related biological processes for the prevention and treatment specific diseases. Electronic Supplementary Material Supplementary material (fluorescence spectra: UV and Xe irradiation, TG, thermo stability, ionic strength, relationship between fluorescence responses at different concentrations of Fe3+ and AA, reaction time-dependent fluorescent responses; XPS spectra of CDs + Fe3+ and Fe3+@CDs + AA; structural characterization; equations about fluorescence lifetime, quantum yield and LOD; comparison of the CDs for the detection of Fe3+ and AA with reported methods; detection of Fe3+ and AA in real samples; absorption of Fe3+ in environmental samples and MTT assay results) is available in the online version of this article at 10.1007/s12274-022-5107-7.

Abstract
A simple and green strategy has been demonstrated for the synthesis of carbon dots (CDs) from mussels. The chemical structure and optical properties of mussels-derived CDs prepared at different reaction temperatures (140, 160, and 180 °C) were evaluated. The average size of synthesized fluorescent CDs decreased from 2.06 to 1.30 nm as reaction temperatures increased from 140 to 180 °C. The fluorescence quantum yield of CDs could reach up to 15.20%. The surface of CDs was rich in functional groups such as -OH, -NH2, and -COOH, providing CDs with good water solubility and biocompatibility. Furthermore, the mussel-derived CDs have been successfully applied in bio-imaging for onion endothelium cells, HepG2 cells, and zebrafish. In addition, CDs could be employed as a biosensor for riboflavin detection. Therefore, mussels are a promising carbon resource for preparing N-doped CDs for bio-imaging and monitoring riboflavin.
