Mentors: Nisreen Nusair, Ph.D., Mithun Bhowmick, Ph.D.
This study investigates the interaction between ascorbic acid-derived carbon dot nanoparticles (CD-NPs) and phospholipid bilayers, key components of cellular membranes. CD-NPs, synthesized via a hydrothermal method using ascorbic acid, exhibit biocompatibility, making them promising candidates for drug delivery applications. The interaction of CD-NPs with cell membranes is critical for effective drug delivery to target cells. It is influenced by the physicochemical properties of both CD-NPs and phospholipid bilayers.
