摘要
Most of the nanoimaging tools like quantum dots and metallic nanoparticles are shown to have different levels of cytotoxicity via various mechanisms. However carbon nanodots (CNDs) are a new group of ultra small nano structures (average 4-6 nm) which is potential candidate of next generation optical imaging. Being carbonaceous in origin, CNDs possess excellent luminescence and photostability with significantly less cytotoxicity. In present study, we have synthesized carbon nano-lots from date molasses by microwave irradiation at similar to pH 11. The synthesized carbon nanodots were characterized using UV-Vis spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, TEM, XRD analysis, FTIR study and Zeta potential measurement. The average sizes of the dots were found to be 5-7 nm. A clear band emission was visible around 480 nm when an excitation beam of 415 nm was incident. For biological applicability, MTT assay and hemocompatibility studies were performed. The results exhibited the material to be highly cytocompatible within the application limit. Upon immediate exposure to CNDs, no significant changes to cellular surface morphology were observed via AFM imaging. Significant hemolysis or blood cell aggregation was not observed after incubation of CNDs with blood. After labelling with CNDs, MG-63 cells were found to be unbleached up to several hours even on exposure to light. We are reporting first time in this study the free radical scavenging property of CNDs in ex vivo and in vitro models. Antioxidant activity was measured ex vivo via potassium permanganate assay and DPPH assay. In vitro superoxide inhibition activity was measured both by spectroscopy and under microscope by NBT reduction assay. Hydroxyl free radical inhibition activity was measured via DCFH-DA Assay. The results were comparable with scavenging activity of standard antioxidant molecules (BHT and L-ascorbic acid). A novel assay for quantitative analysis of cellular oxidative stress was also proposed. Therefore, this material could be useful for long-term live cell imaging and cell tracking in a scaffold with minimal cytotoxicity and oxidative stress.
