Highly Photostable Carbon Dots from Citric Acid for Bioimaging.

Project description:Bioimaging supported by nanoparticles requires low cost, highly emissive and photostable systems with low cytotoxicity. Carbon dots (C-dots) offer a possible solution, even if controlling their properties is not always straightforward, not to mention their potentially simple synthesis and the fact that they do not exhibit long-term photostability in general. In the present work, we synthesized two C-dots starting from citric acid and tris (hydroxymethyl)-aminomethane (tris) or arginine methyl ester dihydrochloride. Cellular uptake and bioimaging were tested in vitro using murine neuroblastoma and ovine fibroblast cells. The C-dots are highly biocompatible, and after 24 h of incubation with the cells, 100% viability was still observed. Furthermore, the C-dots synthesized using tris have an average dimension of 2 nm, a quantum yield of 37%, high photostability and a zeta potential (ζ) around -12 mV. These properties favor cellular uptake without damaging cells and allow for very effective bioimaging.

A novel highly fluorescent S, N, O co-doped carbon dots for biosensing and bioimaging of copper ions in live cells.

Project description:In this study, novel highly fluorescent sulfur, nitrogen, and oxygen co-doped carbon dots (S, N, O-CDs) were prepared from m-phenylenediamine and sulfamide by using the hydrothermal method. The prepared S, N, O-CDs show high doping rate and fluorescence yield as well as long-term fluorescence stability. In addition, S, N, O-CDs show good fluorescence response towards Cu2+ over a concentration range of 2-60 μM with a detection limit of 0.29 μM. Taking advantages of the properties of S, N, O-CDs including high selectivity and low cytotoxicity, S, N, O-CDs were successfully applied for Cu2+ sensing and imaging in the cells and O2˙--induced Cu2+ increase in the cells was observed. Furthermore, on account of strong complexation between Cu2+ and pyrophosphate ion (PPi) as well as specific hydrolysis ability of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) towards PPi, PPi and ALP were further detected with high selectivity based on S, N, O-CDs/Cu2+ system. The prepared S, N, O-CDs showed good detection results for PPi and ALP with detection limits of 0.44 μM and 1.03 U L-1, respectively. Moreover, the developed method also realized PPi and ALP detection in real samples.

Biomass-Derived Carbon Dots as Nanoprobes for Smartphone-Paper-Based Assay of Iron and Bioimaging Application.

Project description:A facile one-step carbonization approach is reported herein for the sustainable hydrothermal synthesis of fluorescent blue nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots (NCQDs) using banana petioles obtained as biomass waste. These NCQDs were used to design a "turn-off" fluorescent probe, which exhibited excellent sensing capability toward the selective detection of micronutrient, Fe3+ ion, with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.21 nM. The turn-off process involves the formation of a nonradiative charge transfer complex via a photoinduced electron transfer process. The sensor showed a linear range from 5 to 200 nM and was used for the estimation of Fe3+ ions in real plant samples. Further, a paper-based assay was developed for the quantitative estimation of Fe3+ with LOD values of 0.47 nM for solution-based assay and 0.94 nM for paper-based assay using a smartphone-based readout for potential on-field applications in precision agriculture. Bioimaging studies on banana leaf cells using NCQDs revealed the selective staining of stomata openings on leaf lamella. Therefore, this work provides a way for the valorization of biomass waste into functional nanomaterials without using any extra chemicals.

Fe Doped CdTeS Magnetic Quantum Dots for Bioimaging.

Project description:A facile synthesis of 3-6 nm, water dispersible, near-infrared (NIR) emitting, quantum dots (QDs) magnetically doped with Fe is presented. Doping of alloyed CdTeS nanocrystals with Fe was achieved in situ using a simple hydrothermal method. The magnetic quantum dots (MQDs) were capped with NAcetyl-Cysteine (NAC) ligands, containing thiol and carboxylic acid functional groups to provide stable aqueous dispersion. The optical and magnetic properties of the Fe doped MQDs were characterized using several techniques. The synthesized MQDs are tuned to emit in the Vis-NIR (530-738 nm) wavelength regime and have high quantum yields (67.5-10%). NIR emitting (738 nm) MQDs having 5.6 atomic% Fe content exhibited saturation magnetization of 85 emu/gm[Fe] at room temperature. Proton transverse relaxivity of the Fe doped MQDs (738 nm) at 4.7 T was determined to be 3.6 mM-1s-1. The functional evaluation of NIR MQDs has been demonstrated using phantom and in vitro studies. These water dispersible, NIR emitting and MR contrast producing Fe doped CdTeS MQDs, in unagglomerated form, have the potential to act as multimodal contrast agents for tracking live cells.

Highly Luminescent Nucleoside-Based N, P-Doped Carbon Dots for Sensitive Detection of Ions and Bioimaging.

Project description:The efficient detection of Fe3+ and MnO4 - in a water environment is very important and challenging due to their harmful effects on the health of humanity and environmental systems. Good biocompatibility, sensitivity, selectivity, and superior photophysical properties were important attributes of carbon dot-based CDs sensors for sensing applications. In this work, we synthesized N, P-co-doped carbon dots (N/P CDs) with guanosine 5'-monophosphate (GMP) as a green carbon source, with high fluorescence quantum yield in water (QY, 53.72%). First, the luminescent N/P CDs showed a three-state "on-off-on" fluorescence response upon the sequential addition of Fe3+ and F-, with a low detection limit of 12 nM for Fe3+ and 8.5 nM for F-, respectively. Second, the N/P CDs also exhibited desirable selectivity and sensitivity for toxic MnO4 - detection with the limit of detection of 18.2 nM, through a turn-off mechanism. Moreover, the luminescent N/P CDs successfully monitored the aforementioned ions in environmental water samples and in Escherichia coli.

Hyaluronan-Conjugated Carbon Quantum Dots for Bioimaging Use.

Project description:This work demonstrates the application of hyaluronan-conjugated nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots (HA-nCQDs) for bioimaging of tumor cells and illustrates their potential use as carriers in targeted drug delivery. Quantum dots are challenging to deliver with specificity, which hinders their application. To facilitate targeted internalization by cancer cells, hyaluronic acid, a natural ligand of CD44 receptors, was covalently grafted on nCQDs. The HA-nCQD conjugate was synthesized by carbodiimide coupling of the amine moieties on nCQDs and the carboxylic acids on HA chains. Conjugated HA-nCQD retained sufficient fluorescence, although with 30% lower quantum efficiency than the original nCQDs. Confocal microscopy showed enhanced internalization of HA-nCQDs, facilitated by CD44 receptors. To demonstrate the specificity of HA-nCQDs toward human tumor cells, patient-derived breast cancer tissue with high-CD44 expression was implanted in adult mice. The tumors were allowed to grow up to 200-250 mm3 prior to the injection of HA-nCQDs. With either local or systemic injection, we achieved a high level of tumor specificity judged by a strong signal-to-noise ratio between the tumor and the surrounding tissue in vivo. Overall, the results show that HA-nCQDs can be used for imaging of CD44-specific tumors in preclinical models of human cancer and potentially used as carriers for targeted drug delivery into CD44-rich cells.

One-Step Synthesis of Nitrogen/Fluorine Co-Doped Carbon Dots for Use in Ferric Ions and Ascorbic Acid Detection.

Project description:Carbon dots (CDs) have caught enormous attention owing to their distinctive properties, such as their high water solubility, tunable optical properties, and easy surface modification, which can be generally used for the detection of heavy metals and organic pollutants. Herein, nitrogen and fluorine co-doped carbon dots (NFCDs) were designed via a rapid, low-cost, and one-step microwave-assisted technique using DL-malic acid and levofloxacin. The NFCDs emitted intense green fluorescence under UV lighting, and the optical emission peak at 490 nm was observed upon a 280 nm excitation, with a high quantum yield of 21.03%. Interestingly, the spectral measurements illustrated excitation-independent and concentration-independent single-color fluorescence owing to the presence of nitrogen and fluorine elements in the surface functional groups. Additionally, the NFCDs were applied for the selective detection of Fe3+ and ascorbic acid based on the "turn-off" mode. The detection limits were determined as 1.03 and 4.22 µM, respectively. The quenching mechanisms were explored using the static quenching mechanism and the inner filter effect. Therefore, a NFCDs fluorescent probe with single color emission was successfully developed for the convenient and rapid detection of Fe3+ and ascorbic acid in environments.
