Carbon nanodots as molecular scaffolds for development of antimicrobial agents

We report the potential of carbon nanodots (CNDs) as a molecular scaffold for enhancing the antimicrobial activities of small dendritic poly(amidoamines) (PAMAM). Carbon nanodots prepared from sago starch are readily functionalized with PAMAM by using N-ethyl-N0-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide...
