00:00To see is to believe, so our innovation today is a type of nanotechnology that can give light to small things like viruses and bacteria.

00:23Come on, let's change the game!

00:30Don't underestimate our innovation today, whether it's small or nanoscopic, there are so many uses.

00:39From medical diagnosis, to the creation of new drugs, and even to the detection of bacteria, viruses, and cancer cells.

00:46That's Carbon Quantum Dots, a type of nanotechnology that can give light to things that we can't see.

00:56Behind the technology, scientists and researchers of the DOST Industrial Technology Development Institute, led by Sir Mark Christian Que.

01:08Carbon Quantum Dots is a type of material that is very small.

01:12Now, because it's so small, it has unique properties.

01:18When it is illuminated by UV light, it glows.

01:23That's lit!

01:25It's also sustainable compared to other Quantum Dots made from heavy metals.

01:30Carbon Quantum Dots are made from bio-waste from the skin of calamansi and pineapple leaves.

01:36During tests, it was effective in detecting and illuminating E.coli bacteria.

01:42E.coli is a pathogen that can be a signal that food is contaminated.

01:49From here, we can study how it can be effectively used for food packaging that has sensors.

01:59So that we can know if food is safe to eat or not.

02:05In making this, let's start with the raw materials.

02:09Here are the dried calamansi and dried pineapple leaves.

02:14We'll put it in a Teflon container.

02:17Acid solution.

02:19Let's combine it with the raw material.

02:21We're ready to put it in the reactor.

02:24We'll put this in the oven.

02:27We'll heat it up.

02:29After 12 to 18 hours...

02:33After 12 to 18 hours, we took the reactor out of the oven.

02:38Now, we'll know if we succeeded in making Carbon Quantum Dots.

02:44It's time for us to turn off the lights.

02:48As you can see, there's a big difference.

02:52The technology can also modify where it's attached.

02:56It can be specific bacteria, virus, and even cancer cells.

03:02Innovation is one of the Philippines' achievements

03:05in the Consumer Electronics Show that was held in Las Vegas, Nevada.

03:10We're looking for local partners or startups

03:14who are interested in venturing into the new field of nanotechnology.

03:20There you have it, Nakapuso.

03:21Let's see what nanotechnology can do for medicine.

03:25For GMA Integrated News, I'm Martin Aviar.

03:29Changing the Game!
