Electrochemical Synthesis of Carbon Quantum Dots
ChemElectroChem, 2023 AbstractCarbon quantum dots (CDs) are “small” carbon nanostructures with excellent photoluminescence properties, together with low‐toxicity, high biocompatibility, excellent dispersibility in water as well as organic solvents. Due to their characteristics, CDs have been studied for a plethora of applications as biosensors, luminescent probes for ...

Carbon Dots and Graphene Quantum Dots in Electrochemical Biosensing [PDF]
Nanomaterials, 2019 Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) and carbon dots (CDs) are among the latest research frontiers in carbon-based nanomaterials. They provide interesting attributes to current electrochemical biosensing due to their intrinsic low toxicity, high solubility in many solvents, excellent electronic properties, robust chemical inertness, large specific surface area,

Carbon Dots in Enantioselective Sensing
SensorsChirality has a crucial effect on clinical, chemical and biological research since most bioactive compounds are chiral in the natural world. It is thus important to evaluate the enantiomeric ratio (or the enantiopurity) of the selected chiral analytes. To this purpose, fluorescence and electrochemical sensors, in which a chiral modifier is present, are
