Biomass‐derived Carbon dots as Antibacterial Agent

Carbon dots were obtained from waste products by a facile one-step hydrothermal method and evaluated for their bactericidal activities against gram-negative; Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and gram-positive; Bacillus subtilis. The Carbon Dots at ۰.۳ mg/mL good antibacterial effect within ۲۴ h and complete eradication is observed. The demand for green chemistry and cost-effectiveness lead us to synthesize Carbon dots from waste products. This study provides a strategy for the preparation of Carbon Dots and their potential antibacterial activities against four common contagious pathogens.
