In the present review article, we summarize current investigations and contributions on a wide range applications of asphaltenes. Asphaltenes have been studied extensively for their potential novel applications. Recently, there has been increasing interest in revealing the potential of asphaltenes in different areas, such as electronics, polymer composites, supercapacitors, and gas-adsorbing matrixes. Upon giving describing asphaltenes’ structural characteristics, we focus on the applications of asphaltenes by correlating their chemical and electronic structure to their applications. After summarizing lessons learned about asphaltenes, we conclude the review by proposing new areas to apply asphaltenes and how to improve the current applications of asphaltenes.

The existing and emerging demand for materials for life and health has contributed to the cultivation and development of respective markets. Nevertheless, the current generation of biomedical materials has yet to fully satisfy the clinical requirements of the market, which is still in its relative infancy. Research and development in this area must be prioritized in light of the pivotal role of new life and health materials in the biological field. Among many life and health materials, GQDs, an emerging nanomaterial, exhibit considerable promise in the biomedical field, primarily due to their exceptional properties. Furthermore, the direct preparation and functionalization of GQDs have facilitated the development of specific functional composites based on GQDs. The biological applications of GQDs are undergoing rapid growth, which makes it necessary to publish a review article presenting the latest advances in this field. This review provides an overview of the significant advances in synthesizing GQDs, the techniques employed for structural characterizations, and the properties that have been elucidated. Furthermore, it presents recent findings on applying GQDs in antimicrobial, anticancer, biosensing, drug delivery, and bioimaging applications. Finally, it explores the potential of GQDs in biomedicine and biotechnology, highlighting the current challenges that remain to be addressed.
