Abstract
A cheap method allowing fabrication of biocompatible, ultra-small (2–10 nm) and fluorescent (λem = 425–500 nm) nanohybrids (NHs) from coffee wastes is reported. The gadolinium-doped nanohybrids (GDNHs) or gadolinium-free carbon dots (GFCDs) can be synthesized in a domestic microwave oven according to green synthesis principles. Hydrodynamic sizes, chemical composition, impact on proton magnetic resonance relaxation time and optical properties of the GDNHs and GFCDs were studied in details and compared. In particular, doping of the NHs with Gd3+ ions, up to 1.87 % w/w of gadolinium per particles’ weight, will allow their application for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Furthermore, cell culture tests on human adenocarcinomic alveolar basal epithelial cells line (A549) have shown high biocompatibility of the GDNHs and in a wide concentration range 100–1000 µg/ml.
期刊介绍:
Carbon Resources Conversion (CRC) publishes fundamental studies and industrial developments regarding relevant technologies aiming for the clean, efficient, value-added, and low-carbon utilization of carbon-containing resources as fuel for energy and as feedstock for materials or chemicals from, for example, fossil fuels, biomass, syngas, CO2, hydrocarbons, and organic wastes via physical, thermal, chemical, biological, and other technical methods. CRC also publishes scientific and engineering studies on resource characterization and pretreatment, carbon material innovation and production, clean technologies related to carbon resource conversion and utilization, and various process-supporting technologies, including on-line or off-line measurement and monitoring, modeling, simulations focused on safe and efficient process operation and control, and process and equipment optimization.
