Quick synthesis of fluorescent nitrogen-doped carbon nanoparticles for selective and sensitive Fe(III) detection in water. Sensing and Bio-Sensing Research, 23, [100271]. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.sbsr.2019.100271https://doi.org/10.1016/j.sbsr.2019.100271http://nur.nu.edu.kz/handle/123456789/4291Recently, fluorescent carbon nanostructures have attracted enormous attention thanks to their excellent optical properties, low-cost, chemical inertness and stability. In this study, we demonstrated a quick, facile, environment-friendly and low-cost synthesis method for the preparation of fluorescent nitrogen-doped carbon nanoparticles (N-CNPs). Prepared N-CNPs have excitation-dependent fluorescent properties and demonstrate high selectivity towards Fe(III) ions in water. We found that prepared N-CNPs can be used for sensitive detection of Fe(III) ions in the range of 1–30 ppm. Thus, fluorescent N-CNPs can be a promising material for fast and low-cost analysis of Fe(III) ions in water.enAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 United StatesArticle
