In this work, novel types of nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) were prepared from citric acid and glycine (GLY) as precursors through a simple pyrolysis method. The GLY-CDs showed strong fluorescence with a fluorescence quantum yield as high as 33.34% and good water solubility. The fluorescence of GLY-CDs could be selectively quenched by iron(III) ion (Fe3+ ) resulting in the non-fluorescent complex. Due to the high affinity of Fe3+ to adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP), the fluorescence of the GLY-CDs in GLY-CDs-Fe3+ could be
