Micellar fluorescence enhancement of carbamate pesticides
1990
Abstract Different studies have been carried out on the interaction of carbamate pesticides, such as carbofuran and carbaryl, with nonionic and anionic surfactants. Micellar fluorescence enhancements (MEF) of 15–20 for carbofuran in the presence of fatty alcohol ethylene oxide condensates, and of 3.7–8.6 in the presence of anionic surfactants at neutral pH have been obtained. Carbaryl does not interact with surfactants, but when it is hydrolysed to 1-naphthol, MEF values of the order of 2 are obtained in the presence of nonylphenol ethylene oxide condensates. The experimental parameters have been optimized in order to obtain maximum fluorescence. The mechanisms involved in the fluorescence …
Gamma-Ray-Induced Structural Transformation of GQDs towards the Improvement of Their Optical Properties, Monitoring of Selected Toxic Compounds, and …
2022
Structural modification of different carbon-based nanomaterials is often necessary to improve their morphology and optical properties, particularly the incorporation of N-atoms in graphene quantum dots (GQDs). Here, a clean, simple, one-step, and eco-friendly method for N-doping of GQDs using gamma irradiation is reported. GQDs were irradiated in the presence of the different ethylenediamine (EDA) amounts (1 g, 5 g, and 10 g) and the highest % of N was detected in the presence of 10 g. N-doped GQDs emitted strong, blue photoluminescence (PL). Photoluminescence quantum yield was increased from 1.45, as obtained for non-irradiated dots, to 7.24% for those irradiated in the presence of 1 g of …
