The detection of heavy metal ions and organic pollutants from water sources remains critical challenges due to their detrimental effects on human health and the environment. Herein, a nitrogen and sulfur co-doped carbon quantum dot (NS-CQDs) fluorescent sensor was developed using a microwave-assisted carbonization method for the detection of Fe3+ ions and hydroquinone (HQ) in aqueous solutions. NS-CQDs exhibit excellent optical properties, enabling sensitive detection of Fe3+ and HQ, with detection limits as low as 3.40 and 0.96 μM. Notably, with the alternating introduction of Fe3+ and HQ, NS-CQDs exhibit significant fluorescence (FL) quenching and recovery properties. Based on this property, a reliable "on-off-on" detection mechanism was established, enabling continuous and reversible detection of Fe3+ and HQ. Furthermore, the low cytotoxicity of NS-CQDs was confirmed through successful imaging of HeLa cells, indicating their potential for real-time intracellular detection of Fe3+ and HQ. This work not only provides a green and rapid synthesis strategy for CQDs but also highlights their versatility as fluorescent probes for environmental monitoring and bioimaging applications.
