Sweet basil carbon dots show potential for sustainable agriculture
10.6.2026: Researchers at the National School of Continuing Education (ENES-León), National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) and the Autonomous University of Queretaro (UAQ) have developed tiny particles known as carbon dots from sweet basil leaves. This material is inexpensive to produce, biodegradable, and can interact with plants in ways that enhance nutrient uptake, photosynthesis, and overall growth. More importantly, they may serve as environmentally friendly growth stimulants for plants.
