A novel fluorescence (FL) analytical method to determine N-acetylcysteine (NAC) was established by using a branched polyethyleneimine-functionalized carbon dot fluorescent system involving FL quenching by Cu2+ and subsequent FL recovery upon addition of NAC.

Herein, we report a novel route to prepare polymorphic carbon dot fluorescent probes via the evaporation-induced self-assembly of glutaraldehyde and carbon dots, which first usually form carbon nanoclusters which then could self-assemble to form carbon nanocrystals, nanospheres or nanofibers in different ionic strength solutions at room temperature.

An as-synthesised C-dots sample derived from acetic acid, NAC and P2O5 can be separated and fractionated into various C-dots species by HPLC. The brighter C-dots fractions can be used as fluorescent probes for sensitive detection of Fe3+ and Hg2+.

Fluorescence materials such as carbon dots are unique and non-toxic materials that can be produced using many methods. In this research, synthesis and optical characterization of carbon dots from the peels of dragon fruit and pear have been done. The synthesis uses bottom-up method using microwave with 20 minutes, 40 minutes, and 80 minutes of heating time. The result of optical characterizations showed that the samples that have been heat treated are carbon dots based of the absorbance in the range of 280-350 nm, and the intensity are decreased in the range of visible and infrared wavelength. There are emission and intensity changes by different heat treatments. From the samples of dragon fruit's peels, the emission wavelength tended to shift toward visible light at the wavelength of 551.51 nm, 507.98 nm and 487.28 nm with the excitation at the wavelength of 420 nm from pulsed pico-laser. While, the emission wavelength from the samples of pears peels were fluctuate in wavelength of 529.09 nm, 507.52 nm and 519.46 nm. Similarly, the time-resolved photoluminescence characterization test showed that there were time changes in each sample of carbon dot. The decay lifetime of carbon dots was fluctuated between 4.5 ns - 5.4 ns for dragon fruit’s peels and about 1.9 ns - 2.4 ns for pear's peels.
