Ultraviolet Carbon Nanodots Providing a Dual-Mode Spectral Matching Platform for Synergistic Enhancement of the Fluorescent Sensing

Carbon Nanodots as Dual-Mode Nanosensors for Selective Detection of Hydrogen Peroxide

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is an important product of oxidase-based enzymatic reactions, such as glucose/glucose oxidase (GOD) reaction. Therefore, the probing of generated H2O2 for achieving the detection of various carbohydrates and their oxidases is very significative. Herein, we report one kind of dual-emission carbon nanodots (CDs) that can serve as novel dual-mode nanosensors with both fluo...

Carbon Nanodots: Dual‐Color‐Emitting Carbon Nanodots for Multicolor Bioimaging and Optogenetic Control of Ion Channels (Adv. Sci. 11/2017)

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

Nucleic acid detection using single-walled carbon nanohorns as a fluorescent sensing platform.

In this communication, we demonstrate for the first time the proof of concept that single-walled carbon nanohorns can be used as an effective fluorescent sensing platform for nucleic acid detection with a high selectivity down to single-base mismatch.

Nucleic acid detection using carbon nanoparticles as a fluorescent sensing platform.

In this communication, we demonstrate for the first time the proof of concept that carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) can be used as an effective fluorescent sensing platform for nucleic acid detection with selectivity down to single-base mismatch. The dye-labeled single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) probe is adsorbed onto the surface of the CNP via π-π interaction, quenching the dye. In the target assay, a do...
