The study successfully synthesized stable and nontoxic B-Cu NCs with enhanced fluorescent emission properties. These NCs exhibited the capacity to detect dopamine at low concentrations in CSF. The study's findings hold promise for future applications, particularly in the development of a B-Cu NCs-based biosensing system for convenient POC detection of schizophrenia by both patients and clinicians. The potential impact of this technology on healthcare and biomedical fields is substantial.
