This research aims to develop a sensor for detecting ascorbic acid using carbon quantum dots derived from mat stick materials.
Developed a sensor using mat stick-derived carbon quantum dots and Fe³⁺ ions.
Conducted fluorescence-based detection of ascorbic acid.
Analyzed sensor performance in various application settings.
The sensor showed a significant response to ascorbic acid concentrations, with limits of detection reported.
Potential applications in fluorescent ink formulations were established, enhancing visibility of vitamin C content.
Abstract
Ascorbic acid (AA) (C6H8O6), also known as vitamin C, is a water-soluble vitamin consisting of a skeleton of six-carbon lactone derived from fruits and vegetables. Detection of ascorbic acid in...
