Embodiment 1

[0041] The preparation of embodiment 1 lactobacillus plantarum fermented liquid

[0042] Lactobacillus plantarum LCC-605 preserved in a glycerol tube is inoculated in a liquid MRS medium at a volume ratio of 1-3%, placed at 25-42° C. for static culture for 12-24 hours, and the obtained fermentation broth is set aside.

Embodiment 2

[0043] The preparation of embodiment 2 carbon quantum dot solution

[0044] Get 30mL of the fermented liquid prepared in Example 1 and place it in a 100mL hydrothermal reactor. Put it in an oven at 120-240°C, and react for 12-48 hours. See Table 1 for specific reaction conditions. After the reaction, the residue was removed, and the remaining liquid was filtered for later use. When the reaction temperature is 200°C and the reaction time is 24h, the quantum yield of the obtained carbon quantum dots is 12%.

Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of biotechnologies and nano materials and provides a preparation method of carbon quantum dots and application of the carbon quantum dots in biofilm imaging. The carbon quantum dots are prepared by taking lactobacillus plantarum fermentation liquid as a raw material through a hydrothermal reaction one-step method. The carbon quantum dots adopt a simple preparation technology, are relatively low in cost, environmentally friendly and easy to implement; the quantum yield of the prepared carbon quantum dots can reach 12%; and the prepared carbon quantum dots have the advantages of relatively high photostability, good water solubility and the like and can be applied to biofilm microbial imaging. Compared with a commercialized biofilm microbial dye, the biofilm microbial imaging process of the carbon quantum dots has the advantages that the carbon quantum dots do not need to be kept in a dark place, are short in incubating time and free of cleaning, long-term imaging observation can be achieved, a biofilm is not destroyed, and red and green double-channel imaging can be carried out at the same time.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of nanomaterials and biotechnology, and in particular relates to a preparation method of carbon quantum dots using Lactobacillus plantarum fermentation broth as a raw material, and the application of the carbon quantum dots in microbial biofilm imaging. Background technique [0002] Biomembranes are dense network structures composed of exopolysaccharides, proteins, nucleic acids, and even lipids. The formation of biofilm is a dynamic process, which mainly includes the following four stages: the colonization stage of reversible microbial adhesion, the accumulation stage of irreversible adhesion, the maturation stage of biofilm, and the shedding and recolonization stage of microorganisms. Biofilm is ubiquitous and involves all aspects of human existence. Once biofilm is formed, it will cause cross-contamination of food, medical supplies, food and pharmaceutical processing environments, and equipment. The formation of b...
