Brief Description

Description :

The CSIR-NEIST has developed a process that require simple preparation, easy to control, environmental friendly, uses cheap raw material (i.e. low-quality high sulfur coal), and also suitable for large scale commercial production. Furthermore, the developed product of the present invention possesses higher quantum yield, is highly water soluble and emits blue-fluorescence with long life time and exhibits antimicrobial activity.
