title: Quaternized carbon dot-modified graphene oxide for selective cell labelling--controlled nucleus and cytoplasm imaging.
abstract: Cationic quaternized carbon dots (QCDs) and anionic graphene oxide sheets (GO) are combined via non-covalent interactions following a self-assembly pathway to form highly biocompatible and fluorescent hybrid materials. These hybrids act as selective probes with controlled labelling of the cell nucleus or cytoplasm depending on the QCD loading.
