ABSTRACT
Fluorescent sensor-based carbon dots (CDs) have significantly developed for sensing metal ions because of their great physical and optical properties, including tunable fluorescence emission, high fluorescence quantum yield, high sensitivity, non-toxicity, and biocompatibility. In this research, a green synthetic approach via simple gamma irradiation for the carbon dot synthesis from water hyacinth was developed since water hyacinth has been classified as an invasive aquatic plant containing cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. The thiol moiety (SH) was further functionalized on the surface functional groups of CDs as the "turn-off" fluorescent sensor for metal ion detection. Fluorescence emission displayed a red shift from 451 to 548 nm when excited between 240 and 500 nm. The quantum yield of CDs-SH was elucidated to be 13%, with strong blue fluorescence emission under ultraviolet irridiation (365 nm), high photostability and no photobleaching. The limit of detection was determined at micromolar levels for Hg2+, Cu2+, and Fe3+. CDs-SH could be a real-time monitoring sensor for Hg2+ and Cu2+ as fluorescence quenching was observed within 2 min. Furthermore, paper test-strip based CDs-SH could be applied to detect these metal ions.
