title: Scale-Up Synthesis of Fragrant Nitrogen-Doped Carbon Dots from Bee Pollens for Bioimaging and Catalysis.
abstract: Fragrant nitrogen-doped carbon dots of gram scalecan be prepared from commercial bee pollens by a hydrothermal process. These carbon dots of 1-2 nm in size show promising applications in cellular imaging and catalysis/photocatalysis.
