Fluorescence turn-off sensing of lead and gentamicin based on phosphorus and chlorine co-doped carbon dots

A selective dual quenching sensor (EY/BG@CDs) for simultaneous monitoring of gentamicin and ketorolac levels in plasma: a highly efficient platform that caters to the needs of therapeutic drug monitoring

“…Another paper also discusses quenching of carbon dots with GNT, but they report that GNT enhances quenching effect induced by lead ions, and no mechanism is discussed for this phenomenon. 48 Overall, our study provides a more comprehensive analysis of the interaction between carbon dots and GNT, which enhances our understanding of this system.…”

Alendronate-Modified Polydiacetylene (PDA) Dual-Mode Sensor for the Selective Detection of Lead(II) Ions up to the nM Level in Solutions and Agarose Films

“…These approaches include conventional methods such as inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), , atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS), , atomic emission spectrometry (AES), , stripping voltammetry (SV), , and other emerging methods such as colorimetric-, fluorimetric-, and aptamer-based sensors. − Among these methods, colorimetric methods have garnered substantial interest due to their cost-effectiveness and ease of naked-eye detection, while fluorimetric sensors have been highly regarded for their superior sensitivity and dependable performance. Dual-output colorimetric and fluorimetric sensors provide the benefit of both easy visual detection and enhanced sensitivity opening a scope for on-field applications …”
