Abstrakt: Concentration‐dependent carbon dot (CD) fluorescence was developed and utilized alongside hyperspectral microscopy as a specific labeling and identification technique for bacteria. Staining revealed that the CD concentration within cells depended on the characteristic intracellular environment of the species. Therefore, based on the concentration dependence of the CD fluorescence, different bacterial species were specifically labeled. Hyperspectral microscopy captured subtle fluorescence variations to identify bacteria. Method validation using Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus licheniformis succeeded with an identification accuracy of 99%. As a simple, rapid method for labeling and identifying bacterial species in mixtures, this technique has excellent potential for bacterial community studies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
