Carbon dots (CDs), comprising crystalline graphitized carbon cores and polymer surface groups, are currently attracting a lot of interest in biological fields owing to their fluorescent properties, high photostability, biocompatibility low toxicity. In addition, the easy preparation functionalization CDs stimulate development CDs‐based composite materials with specific functions. Presently, applications growing at remarkable speed, justifying need for up‐to‐date review articles that capture recent progress this blossoming field. review, breakthroughs synthesis, modification, optical toxicology biocatalytic platforms described. Further, research related bioimaging, biosensing, drug delivery, antibacterial, anticancer (photothermal therapy, photodynamic therapy synergistic therapy) antiviral therapies involving discussed detail. Finally, perspective on prospects challenges biomedicine biotechnology is provided.

Carbon dots (CDs) are usually smaller than 10 nm in size, and meticulously formulated recently introduced nanomaterials, among the other types of carbon-based nanomaterials. They have gained significant attention an incredible interest field nanotechnology biomedical science, which is merely due to their considerable exclusive attributes; including enhanced electron transferability, photobleaching photo-blinking effects, high photoluminescent quantum yield, fluorescence property, resistance photo-decomposition, increased electrocatalytic activity, good aqueous solubility, excellent biocompatibility, long-term chemical stability, cost-effectiveness, negligible toxicity, acquaintance large effective surface area-to-volume ratio. CDs can be readily functionalized owing abundant functional groups on surfaces, they also exhibit remarkable sensing features such as specific, selective, multiplex detectability. In addition, physico-chemical characteristics easily tunable based intended usage or application. this comprehensive review article, we mainly discuss classification CDs, ideal properties, general synthesis approaches, primary characterization techniques. More importantly, update readers about recent trends health care applications (viz., substantial prominent role area electrochemical optical biosensing, bioimaging, drug/gene delivery, well photodynamic/photothermal therapy).
