    Abstract:
    Carbon dots (CDs) were hydrothermally synthesized from selenious yeast. They were further coupled with riboflavin to form a dually emitting probe for ciprofloxacin (CIP). Under 370 nm excitation, the probe displays dual (blue and green) emissions with peaks at 443 and 510 nm. When CIP is added, the blue fluorescence of the CDs is enhanced while the green fluorescence remains unaffected. The ratio of the relative fluorescence intensities at 443 and 510 nm increases linearly in the 0.5-200 μM CIP concentration range. The fluorescent probe is selective and has a 0.13 μM detection limit. Satisfactory recoveries (97.9-101.1%) were received when the probe was used to quantify CIP in spiked water and human serum samples. Graphical abstractBlue-emissive carbon dots were prepared from selenious yeast via a hydrothermal method, and then coupled with riboflavin as a ratiometric fluorometric probe for ciprofloxacin determination.
