AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies for the resource utilization of Central American cockroach residue are inefficient and costly. Traditional carbon dot synthesis methods suffer from high raw material costs, poor sustainability, and toxic byproducts. Furthermore, Ag+ detection methods are complex and not suitable for rapid detection.
Nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots were prepared from American cockroach residue using a one-step hydrothermal method for the detection of Ag+. The results demonstrated a rapid and sensitive detection of Ag+ by utilizing the synergistic mechanism of internal filtration effect and photoinduced electron transfer.
The high-value utilization of American cockroach residue has been realized. The prepared nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots have excellent optical properties and stability, and can be used for the selective, sensitive and anti-interference detection of Ag+ with a detection limit of 5.54 μM. They are suitable for the rapid detection of Ag+ in wastewater and solvents.
