Abstrakt: The carbon dots (CDs) with excellent optical properties and their hydrogel complex are of great significance in biomedicine, healthcare and biochemical detection fields. This paper reports the preparation of green-emitting CDs (MA-CDs) through one-step hydrothermal route with citric acid as reducing agent, L-malic acid as carbon source and N-(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediamine as nitrogen source. To expand its application in biology, MA-CDs were coupled with vancomycin to obtain multifunctional CDs (VMA-CDs). The prepared VMA-CDs exhibit selective antibacterial behavior to Gram-positive bacteria, and it could be used as a fluorescent probe to selectively label Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). Moreover, thanks to the excellent optical properties of VMA-CDs, it has been used as a fluorescent sensor to detect Au 3+ with detection range of 6.50 nM-21.93 μM and detection limit 3.98 nM. By introducing the fluorescence of CDs as the reference signal, and VMA-CDs as a response signal, the hydrogel (V-SP) was prepared and realized the detection of Au 3+ in microfluidics with assistance of a smartphone to collect and analyze data.
