We prepared novel green, eco-friendly carbon dots as a dual-channel probe for highly sensitive and selective detection of tartrazine (Trz) and palladium(II) (Pd(II)) involving, respectively, FRET and electron transfer mechanisms. Furthermore, the successful utilization of the carbon dots for detecting Trz and Pd(II) in actual samples implies its potential application prospects in analysis.

Iron-cerium co-doped carbon dots (Fe,Ce-CDs) were synthesized by one-step hydrothermal method using tartaric acid and L-tryptophan as ligands. Fe,Ce-CDs shows excellent peroxidase-like (POD) activity and nitrite (NO) can promote the oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to its blue oxidation product (oxTMB) due to the formation of ∙NO free radical. NO further react with oxTMB to form a yellow color via diazotization resulting in the absorbance Change at 450 nm.

Quantum dots, with their superior intrinsic fluorescence and photostability, are emerging as a promising option for cancer gene therapy, diagnosis, and imaging. However, low gene delivery efficiency, insufficient targeting, and responsiveness remain challenges. To address these issues, PEI-based carbon quantum dots (CPNCs) were constructed by crosslinking polyethylenimine quantum dots (PQDs) with carbon quantum dots (CQDs) via disulfide bonds.

In this study, a novel carbon dots-based system was developed for the sequential quantification of Au and L-cysteine (L-Cys). The system comprises N,F-doped carbon dots (N,F-CDs), a custom-designed miniaturized fluorimeter, and test strips. The N,F-CDs exhibit outstanding optical properties, including a large Stokes shift (127 nm) and high fluorescence intensity.

For the first time, long-wavelength red emission carbon dots (R-CDs) were prepared as ratiometric fluorescent and colorimetric dual-mode sensors for detecting ClO using a simple one-step hydrothermal method. R-CDs exhibited intrinsic red fluorescence at 587 nm. Upon interaction with ClO, a new and enhanced green fluorescence at 535 nm was observed, which was attributed to resulting from the oxidation of surface hydroxyl (-OH) groups to carbonyl (CO) groups.
