Smartphone-Assisted Robust Sensing Platform for on-Site Quantitation of 2, 4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic Acid Using Red Emissive Carbon Dots

removal of 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2, 4-d) from aqueous environments using single-walled carbon nanotubes

conclusions according to achieved results, it was defined that swcnts is a quite effective adsorbent in removal of 2, 4-d from aqueous environments. results maximum adsorption capacity of the swcnts was 979.6 mg/g at ph5, contact time 45 min, initial concentration of 5000 µg/l, and 23 ± 2 ◦c temperatures, when 97.96% of 2, 4-d herbicide were removed. the adsorption equilibriums were analyzed by...

Intriguing cysteine induced improvement of the emissive property of carbon dots with sensing applications.

A simple fluorometric technique has been adopted for cysteine (Cys) sensing in alkaline medium down to the nM level. The huge fluorescent signal of the solution is a consequence of fluorescent carbon dots (CDs) produced in situ from modified hydrothermal (MHT) reaction between Cys and dopamine (DA). It has been observed that the inherent fluorescence of DA is drastically quenched in alkaline so...

Smartphone sensing platform for emergency management

The increasingly sophisticated sensors supported by modern smartphones open up novel research opportunities, such as mobile phone sensing. One of the most challenging of these research areas is context-aware and activity recognition. The SmartRescue project takes advantage of smartphone sensing, processing and communication capabilities to monitor hazards and track people in a disaster. The goa...
