Abstract
Concern about food safety triggers demand on rapid, accurate and on-site detection of foodborne pathogens. Among various fluorescent probes for detection, carbon dots (CDs) prepared by carbonization of carbon-rich raw materials show extraordinary performance for their excellent and tailorable photoluminescence property, as well as their facilely gained specificity by surface customization and modification. CDs-based fluorescent probes play a crucial role in many pathogenic bacteria sensing systems. In addition, microfluidic technology with characteristics of portability and functional integration is expected to combine with CDs-based fluorescent probes for point-of-care testing (POCT), which can further enhance the detection property of CDs-based fluorescent probes. Here, this paper reviews CDs-based bacterial detection methods and systems, including the structural modulation of fluorescent probes and pathogenic bacteria detection mechanisms, and describes the potential of combining CDs with microfluidic technology, providing reference for the development of novel rapid detection technology for pathogenic bacteria in food.

Abstract
Amphotericin B is the oldest antifungal molecule which is still currently widely used in clinical practice, in particular for the treatment of invasive diseases, even though it is not devoid of side effects (particularly nephrotoxicity). Recently, its redox properties (i.e., both prooxidant and antioxidant) have been highlighted in the literature as mechanisms involved in both its activity and its toxicity. Interestingly, similar properties can be described for inorganic nanoparticles. In the first part of the present review, the redox properties of Amphotericin B and inorganic nanoparticles are discussed. Then, in the second part, inorganic nanoparticles as carriers of the drug are described. A special emphasis is given to their combined redox properties acting either as a prooxidant or as an antioxidant and their connection to the activity against pathogens (i.e., fungi, parasites, and yeasts) and to their toxicity. In a majority of the published studies, inorganic nanoparticles carrying Amphotericin B are described as having a synergistic activity directly related to the rupture of the redox homeostasis of the pathogen. Due to the unique properties of inorganic nanoparticles (e.g., magnetism, intrinsic anti-infectious properties, stimuli-triggered responses, etc.), these nanomaterials may represent a new generation of medicine that can synergistically enhance the antimicrobial properties of Amphotericin B.

In situ doping lignin-derived carbon quantum dots on magnetic hydrotalcite for enhanced degradation of Congo Red over a wide pH range and simultaneous removal of heavy metal ions. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 239:124303. [PMID: 37019204 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.124303] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2023] [Revised: 03/16/2023] [Accepted: 03/29/2023] [Indexed: 04/05/2023]
Abstract
A new N, S-CQDs@Fe3O4@HTC composite was prepared by loading N, S carbon quantum dots (N, S-CQDs) derived from lignin on magnetic hydrotalcite (HTC) via an in-situ growth method. The characterization results showed that the catalyst had a mesoporous structure. These pores facilitate the diffusion and mass transfer of pollutant molecules inside the catalyst, allowing them to approach the active site smoothly. The catalyst performed well in the UV degradation of Congo red (CR) over a wide pH range (3-11), with efficiencies over 95.43 % in all cases. Even at a high NaCl content (100 g/L), the catalyst showed extraordinary CR degradation (99.30 %). ESR analysis and free radical quenching experiments demonstrated that OH and O2- were the main active species governing CR degradation. Besides, the composite had outstanding removal efficiency for Cu2+ (99.90 %) and Cd2+ (85.08 %) simultaneously due to the electrostatic attraction between the HTC and metal ions. Moreover, the N, S-CQDs@Fe3O4@HTC had excellent stability and recyclability during five cycles, making it free of secondary contamination. This work provides a new environment-friendly catalyst for the simultaneous removal of multiple pollutants and a waste-to-waste strategy for the value-added utilization of lignin.

Abstract
In this work, we used chitosan as a raw material to synthesize carbon dots using fast microwave carbonization. We studied the influence of the synthesis time, doping agent, and the molar ratio between the reactants on the quantum yield of carbon dots. Chitosan-based carbon dots displayed stable blue fluorescence emission with excitation-dependent behavior and quantum yield values ranging from 1.16 to 7.07 %. ANOVA results showed that the interaction factor between the doping agent and the molar ratio of the reactants was a significant combination to produce carbon dots with higher quantum yield. The presence of the doping agent improved the carbon dots optical properties by obtaining higher fluorescence intensity values. Confocal laser microscope images showed that the carbon dots internalized in the Candida albicans cellular membrane, exhibiting blue, green, and red emissions, acting as a promising agent for bioimaging.

Abstract
Amphotericin B (AMB), with widespread antifungal and anti-parasitic activities and low cross-resistance with other drugs, has long been identified as a potent antimicrobial drug. However, its clinical toxicities, especially nephrotoxicity, have limited its use in clinical practice. Lately, nano-based systems have been the subject of serious research and becoming an effective strategy to improve toxicity and antimicrobial potency. Commercial AMB lipid formulations have been developed in order to improve the therapeutic index and nephrotoxicity, while limited use is mainly due to their high cost. The review aimed to highlight the updated information on nanotechnology-based approaches to the development of AMB delivery and targeting systems for treatment of fungal diseases and leishmaniasis, regarding therapeutic challenges and achievements of various delivery systems.

Abstract
The growth and metabolism of Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris can lead to the spoilage of commercial fruit juice. Existing methods have some drawbacks such as complex sample pretreatment, skilled technician requirement, reduced sensitivity and specificity. Herein, a novel fluorescence immunoassay was developed using a monoclonal antibody (mAb) against A. acidoterrestris as the sensing element and carbon dots (CDs) as the signal response unit. The CDs can be quenched via fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) by the oxidization product of p-phenylenediamine (PPD), a chromogenic substrate of horseradish peroxidase (HRP). This approach showed enhanced accuracy and sensitivity with relatively low limit of detection (LOD) of 6.16 × 102 CFU mL-1. Moreover, apple juice contaminated with 1 CFU mL-1 of A. acidoterrestris can be identified after 24 h enrichment. This fluorescence immunoassay could serve as a powerful tool for laboratory identification and on-site inspection of A. acidoterrestris, reducing the adverse effect on the quality of fruit juice.

Abstract
Nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots (N-CQDs) with strong fluorescence were prepared by a one-step hydrothermal method using natural biomass waste. Two efficient fluorescent probes were constructed for selective and sensitive detection of oxytetracycline (OTC). The synthesized N-CQDs were characterized by UV-visible absorption spectra, fluorescence spectra, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray photon spectroscopy (XPS), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), which proved that the synthesized N-CQDs surface were functionalized and had stable fluorescence performance. The basis of N-CQDs detection of OTC was discussed, and various reaction conditions were studied. Under optimized conditions, orange peel carbon quantum dots (ON-CQDs) and watermelon peel carbon quantum dots (WN-CQDs) have a good linear relationship with OTC concentrations in the range of 2-100 µmol L-1 and 0.25-100 µmol L-1, respectively. ON-CQDs and WN-CQDs were both successfully applied in detecting the OTC in pretreated tap water, lake water, and soil, with the recovery rate at 91.724-103.206%, and the relative standard deviation was less than 5.35%. The results showed that the proposed N-CQDs proved to be green and simple, greatly reducing the detection time for OTC in the determination environment.
