Sustainable synthesis and characterization of fluorescent nanoprobe based on unintentional heteroatom doped-carbon quantum dots for bioimaging of human neuroblastoma cancer cells and living organisms
“…According to previous reports, the pyrrolic N is believed to increase the electronic cloud density of CQD surfaces, ultimately enhancing luminescence efficiency. [64][65][66] The CQDs produced had a multitude of O-and N-related functional groups responsible for their remarkable water solubility and could be strongly correlated with their uorescence emission. The negative values for the as-prepared oyster shell, CPKS, and CA-based CQDs were further explained using the zeta potential depicted in Fig.…”
This paper unequivocally examines the production of carbon quantum dots from biomass waste, such as palm kernel shells and oyster shells, and their application in bioimaging. We also prepared carbon quantum dots from citric acid as a comparison.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
