Stephen Hill M. Carmen Galan School of Chemistry, University of Bristol, Cantock’s Close, Bristol BS8 1TS, UK 10.3762/bjoc.13.67 Abstract Fluorescentcarbondots (FCDs) are an emerging class of nanomaterials made from carbon sources that have been hailed as potential non-toxic replacements to
challenges.
Keywords: fluorescentcarbondots; monosaccharides; nanomaterials; nanotechnology applications; polysaccharides; Introduction
Nanotechnology applied to biological and biomedical problems has seen an explosion of research in recent years [1]. Functional nanomaterials that can carry biologically
of novel FCDs with improved properties. For example, simple monosaccharides such as glucose, glucosamine, mannose, fructose and their derivatives and common disaccharides, e.g., sucrose, lactose, and maltose have been employed to prepare fluorescentcarbondots (FCDs) using different methodologies
