Fluorescent/ Photoluminescent Carbon Dots as a Sensor for the Selective and Sensitive Detection of Fe/Fe Metal Ions. A Review of the Last Decade.

Particularly in the numerous biomedical application sectors, the special advantages of an absorbing group of fluorescence carbon dots (CDs), such as their low toxicity, physicochemical stability, photostability, and remarkable biocompatibility, are currently garnering a lot of study focus. Because imbalance of Fe and Fe ions are more hazardous than other ions, they are crucial for maintaining human health. CDs were used as a fluorescent probe to detect these metal ions, Fe/ Fe.
