  Phyto-Entrapped Carbon Dots as Emerging Nanomaterials for Anti-Cancer Activity

  By Ankur Thakur, Lovish Sharma, Komal Pathania

  Abstract: Phytoconstituent-loaded carbon dots (C-dots) represent an innovative approach in targeted cancer therapy, combining the therapeutic power of plant-derived compounds with the advanced capabilities of nanotechnology. These ultra-small, biocompatible nanostructures offer excellent fluorescence, tunable surface chemistry, and low toxicity, making them ideal for drug delivery, bioimaging, and theranostic applications. Traditional phytochemicals often face challenges like poor solubility, low bioavailability, and high first-pass metabolism barriers that C-dots help overcome. C-dots synthesized through …
