Dual-excitation and dual-emission carbon dots (CDs) have been prepared by simple one-step hydrothermal treatment of p-phenylenediamine and 5-aminosalicylic acid. As-prepared CDs emit bright green fluorescence under the excitation of 320...

It has been suggested that the bright green fluorescence shown by the hair of Lindow Man II is due to the use of copper-based pigments for body decoration. However, scientific analysis shows that this fluorescence is due to a natural reaction of the hair keratin with acid in the peat in which the body was buried.

Fluorescence/temperature-sensitive hydrogels, thanks to their properties in fluorescence and temperature sensitivity, have shown a promising outlook in the fields of drug delivery, cell imaging, etc., and thus become the focus of present research. This paper reports the preparation of green-fluorescence/temperature-sensitive hydrogels through one-step radical polymerization with green fluorescence-emissioned carbon dots as fluorescence probes and N-isopropylacrylamide as a monomer. UV-vis spectra, fluorescence spectra, and fluorescence microscope imaging have been used to characterize the prepared hydrogel, and to study their optical and temperature-sensitive properties. It was discovered that the emission of prepared hydrogel is excitation wavelength-dependent, pH responding, and excellent temperature-sensitive, as well as having good biocompatibility. The prepared hydrogel can also be applied as fluorescence ink in the fields of anti-counterfeit identification and appraisal.

Abstract Teucrium chamaedrys (Gemander) has been reported as an adulterant of Scutellaria lateriflora (American skullcap) herbal preparations and is also known to be hepatotoxic. A quick and simple high-performance thin-layer chromatographic (HPTLC) method was developed for the detection of T. chamaedrys (Germander) in S. baicalensis (Chinese skullcap) extract, an ingredient of the proprietary blend product, Univestin. The HPTLC profile of T. chamaedrys was distinguished from that of S. baicalensis by its bright green fluorescence bands. This simple method can be completed in an hour for the quality control of Univestin and its raw material, S. baicalensis. The method is sensitive and can detect T. chamaedrys at levels as low as 0.5 (w/w).

We incorporated carbon dots (CDs) into a SrAl2O4:Eu,Dy phosphor (SAO), and made use of the dual emission from the CDs and SAO within such a composite to realize ratiometric temperature sensing from 100 to 400 K.
