The plasticizer leaches from the microplastics are one of the significant concerns related to plastic pollution. These plasticizers are known to be endocrine disrupters; however, little is known about their long-term effect ...
We present a new class of nitrogen-doped greenish-yellow fluorescent carbon dots (CDs), synthesized using a one-step hydrothermal method. These bright fluorescent nanoparticles have excitation and emission spectra near the ...
Wastewater management has emerged as an uprising concern that demands immediate attention from environmentalists worldwide. Indiscriminate and irrational release of industrial and poultry wastes, sewage, pharmaceuticals, ...
