Fluorescent carbon dots were synthesized from milk by microwave cooking and used for two-photon excitedin vitrocell imaging.
Fluorescent carbon dots derived from peanut shells were prepared via a pyrolysis approach and used for living cell imaging.
Here, we report an environmentally friendly fabrication strategy of bright yellow fluorescent carbon dots (y-CDs) and construct a rapid and accurate multifunctional sensing platform for the effective detection of temperature and Cu2+.
Red fluorescent carbon dots are used in cell imaging and detection of ammonia gas using PVB films under visible light.
