Abstract

We have developed a one-step method to synthesize carbon quantum dots (CQD PAs ) from biogenic polyamines (PAs) as an antibacterial agent for topical treatment of bacterial keratitis (BK). CQDs synthesized by direct pyrolysis of spermidine (Spd) powder through a simple dry heating treatment exhibit ...
