Using pH-Activable Carbon Nanoparticles as Cell Imaging Probes

Using pH-Activable Carbon Nanoparticles as Cell Imaging Probes

Herein, we demonstrate the fabrication of innovative pH-activable carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) based on urea and citric acid by microwave-assisted green synthesis for application in cell imaging. These CNP-based nanoprobes offer significant advantages of pH responsiveness and excellent biocompatibili...
