چکیده

Biomolecule-mimicking nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-Cdots) were synthesized from dopamine by a neutralization heat strategy. Fluorescence imaging of various cells validated their nucleus-staining efficiency. The dopamine-mimicking N-Cdots "trick" nuclear membranes to achieve nuclear localization and imaging.

Evaluation of the Aromaticity of a Non-Planar Carbon Nano-Structure by Nucleus-Independent Chemical Shift Criterion: Aromaticity of the Nitrogen- Doped Corannulene

Substitution of two or four carbon atoms by nitrogen in the corannulene molecule as a carbon nanostructure was done and the obtained structures were optimized at MP2/6-31G(d) level of theory. Calculations of the nucleus-independent chemical shift (NICS) were performed to analyze the aromaticity of the corannulene rings and its derivatives upon doping with N at B3LYP/6-31G(d) level of theory. Re...

Facile synthesis of water-soluble and biocompatible fluorescent nitrogen-doped carbon dots for cell imaging.

A simple, facile and green hydrothermal method was developed in the synthesis of water-soluble nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) from streptomycin. The as-prepared N-CDs displayed bright blue fluorescence under the irradiation of UV light, together with a high quantum yield of 7.6% and good biocompatibility as demonstrated by the cell viability assay. Thus, the N-CDs can be used as fluorescent...

The potentiality of the functionalized nitrogen and thiol-doped graphene quantum dots (GQDs-N-S) to stabilize the antibodies in the designing of human chorionic gonadotropin immunosensor

In this study, for the first time, a simple immunosensor for ultrasensitive recognition of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) in serum samples was fabricated by exploiting a simple approach. In this method, a low-cost and sensitive immunosensor was fabricated based on QDs-N-S/Au nanoparticles (NPs) modified Screen-Printed Carbon Electrode (SPCE). It seems that, QDs-N-S/Au NPs/ antibody as a bio...

Nitrogen-doped carbon dots decorated on graphene: a novel all-carbon hybrid electrocatalyst for enhanced oxygen reduction reaction.

An all-carbon hybrid, composed of coal-based nitrogen-doped carbon dots decorated on graphene, was prepared via hydrothermal treatment. The hybrid possesses comparable electrocatalytic activity, better durability and methanol tolerance than those of the commercial Pt-based electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction, indicative of its great potential in fuel cells.
