Carbon materials are generally utilized in the form of carbon allotropes and their characteristics are exploited as such or for improving the thermal, electrical, optical, and mechanical properties of other biomaterials. This has now found a broader share in conventional biomaterial space with the generation of nanodiamond, carbon dot, carbon nanoparticles (CNPs), and so forth. With properties of better biocompatibility, intrinsic optical emission, aqueous suspendability, and easier surface conjugation possibilities made CNPs as one of the fore most choice for biological applications especially for use in intracellular spaces. There are various reports available presenting methods of preparing, characterizing, and using CNPs for various biological applications but a collection of information on what makes CNP a suitable biomaterial to achieve those biological activities is yet to be provided in a significant way. Herein, a series of correlations among synthesis, characterization, and mode of utilization of CNP have been incorporated along with the variations in its use as agent for sensing, imaging, and therapy of different diseases or conditions. It is ensembled that how simplified and optimized methods of synthesis is correlated with specific characteristics of CNPs which were found to be suitable in the specific biological applications. These comparisons and correlations among various CNPs, will surely provide a platform to generate new edition of this nanomaterial with improvised applications and newer methods of evaluating structural, physical, and functional properties. This may ensure the eventual use of CNPs for human being for specific need in near future.

“…These parameters include the laser wavelength, pulse width, pulse repetition rate, pulse energy, and fluence (energy per unit area) [ 37 ]. Moreover, the irradiation time during ablation, or the re-irradiation after its completion, is a key factor affecting the size of the produced nanostructures [ 40 ]. These factors are illustrated in Figure 2 .…”

High-quality graphene has demonstrated remarkable mechanical, thermal, electronic, and optical properties. These features have paved the road for the introduction of graphene into numerous applications such as optoelectronics and energy devices, photodegradation, bioimaging, photodetectors, sensors, and biosensors. Due to this, graphene research has accelerated exponentially, with the aim of reaching a sustainable large-scale production process of high-quality graphene that can produce graphene-based technologies at an industrial scale. There exist numerous routes for graphene fabrication; however, pulsed laser ablation in liquids (PLAL) has emerged as a simple, fast, green, and environmentally friendly method as it does not require the use of toxic chemicals. Moreover, it does not involve the use of expensive vacuum chambers or clean rooms. However, the great advantage of PLAL is its ability to control the size, shape, and structure of the produced nanostructures through the choice of laser parameters and liquid used. Consequently, this review will focus on recent research on the synthesis of graphene nanosheets and graphene quantum dots via PLAL and the effect of experimental parameters such as laser wavelength, pulse width, pulse energy, repetition rate, irradiation time, and liquid media on the produced nanostructures. Moreover, it will discuss extended PLAL techniques which incorporate other methods into PLAL. Finally, different applications that utilize nanostructures produced by PLAL will be highlighted. We hope that this review will provide a useful guide for researchers to further develop the PLAL technique and the fabrication of graphene-based materials.

“…These nanoparticles have a unique biocompatible nature that makes them highly suitable for bio-detection applications. Several nanostructures such as carbon nanomaterials [ 16 ], noble metal and metal oxide nanoparticles [ 17 ], and nanocrystal semiconductor [ 18 ] are utilized successfully in the biomarker detection by fluorescence detection probes. Nanomaterials such as metal and metal oxides have enhanced the sensitivity and selectivity of detection because of their huge surface area/volume ratio, high interaction, size-dependent characteristics, and a high degree of functionalization [ 19 ].…”

A facile, eco-friendly fluorescence approach based on the biogenic formation of zinc oxide nanoparticles using the biomass of Plicosepalus curviflorus shoots was developed. The suggested approach was employed to analyze three phenolic compounds (catechin, curviflorside, and curviflorin) isolated from the shoots of P. curviflorus. The surface morphology of the prepared ZnONPs was characterized by carrying out different microscopic and spectroscopic investigations. A significant UV-Vis absorption peak of ZnONPs was recognized at 345 nm and the FT-IR spectra of the isolated catechin, curviflorside, and curviflorin in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and ZnONPs were recorded at λem 470, 490, and 484 nm after excitation at λex 380, 420, and 410 nm. The suggested fluorescence method displayed linear concentration ranges of 10–120, 5–100, and 10–150 μg mL−1 for the three isolated compounds, respectively. The shoot extract, isolated compounds, and ZnONPs were screened for antibacterial and anticancer effects against four different types of bacterial strains and HeLa cells, respectively. The ZnONPs exhibited the highest zone of inhibition against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus strains when compared with pure, isolated compounds and shoot extract. The anticancer potential of ZnONPs (64%) was stronger as compared to the 160 µg mL−1 of shoot extract (49%), catechin (52%), curviflorside (54%), and curviflorin (58%) at 160 µg mL−1. Moreover, all the samples were investigated for hemolysis activity and showed a potent anti-hemolytic effect. The developed analytical method showed excellent sensitivity and reliability for the concurrent analysis of the isolated bioactive markers.
