ABSTRACTIn this research, a new type of carbon quantum dot was prepared from Dendrobium huoshanense via one-step hydrothermal reaction at 200 °C for 6 h. The as-derived carbon quantum dots exhibited good fluorescence properties, with quantum yield of 23.57%. The extraction and determination of Dendrobium huoshanense enzymes activity were performed for different incubation times to study the theoretical reference for the dynamic changes of the main enzyme activity in the process of Dendrobium huoshanense growth and the solid processing industry. The results demonstrated that Dendrobium huoshanense was a low toxic carbon source material. Moreover, the prepared carbon quantum dots exhibited high sensitivity for the detection of nonylphenol, allowing a range of linear response of 0.5–50 µM (R2 = 0.9997). The detection limit was a slow as 95.32 nM. These results indicated that fluorescence internal filtration effect influenced nonylphenol-induced quenching of the Dendrobium huoshanense-carbon quantum dots fluorescence. The Dendrobium huoshanense-carbon quantum dots were successfully used to track nonylphenol in environmental samples. Therefore, their exploitation offers a promising approach for environmental pollutant detection.

Water-soluble and reductive carbon quantum dots (CQDs) were fabricated by the hydrothermal carbonization of chitosan. Acting as a reducing agent and stabilizer, the as-prepared CQDs were further used to synthesize gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). This synthetic process was carried out in aqueous solution, which was absolutely “green”. Furthermore, the CQDs/AuNPs composite was used to detect iodine ions by the colorimetric method. A color change from pink to colorless was observed with the constant addition of I− ions, accompanied by a decrease in the absorbance of the CQDs/AuNPs composite. According to the absorbance change, a favorable linear relationship was obtained between ΔA and I− concentration in the range of 20–140 μM and 140–400 μM. The detection limit of iodide ions, depending on the 3δ/slope, was estimated to be 2.3 μM, indicating high sensitivity to the determination of iodide. More importantly, it also showed good selectivity toward I− over other anion ions, and was used for the analysis of salt samples. Moreover, TEM results indicated that I− ions induced the aggregation of CQDs/AuNPs, resulting in changes in color and absorbance.

The photoluminescence of carbon quantum dots synthesized from natural honey and mixtures of honey and sugar has been studied. An increase in the sugar content leads to a decrease in the photoluminescence intensity without changing the shape of the luminescence spectrum of these quantum dots aqueous solutions, which is associated with a decrease in the yield of their synthesis in the sugar presence. The discovered effect can be used to detect sugar in honey. When examining five different market samples of flower honey using this method, two of them showed a significant decrease in the photoluminescence intensity. A laboratory test for compliance with GOST 19792-2017 Standard requirements established an excess of the sucrose content in these samples. Luminescent determination of sugar in honey does not require complicated equipment and can be used to develop a new analytical method for determining the sugar content in counterfeit natural honey.

An eco-friendly and efficient one-step approach for the synthesis of carbon quantum dots (CDs) that encapsulated molecularly imprinted fluorescence quenching particles (MIFQP) and their application for the determination of zearalenone (ZEA) in a cereal sample are described in this study. CDs with high luminescence were first synthesized, and then encapsulated in the silica-based matrix through a non-hydrolytic sol-gel process. The resulting ZEA-imprinted particles exhibited not only an excellent specific molecular recognition of ZEA, but also good photostability and obvious template binding-induced fluorescence quenching. Under the optimized conditions, the fluorescence intensity of MIFQP was inversely proportional to the concentration of ZEA. By validation, the detection range of these fluorescence quenching materials for ZEA was between 0.02 and 1.0 mg L−1, and the detection limit was 0.02 mg L−1 (S/N = 3). Finally, the MIFQP sensor was successfully applied for ZEA determination in corn with recoveries from 78% to 105% and the relative standard deviation (RSD %) was lower than 20%, which suggests its potential in actual applications.
