Abstract: In this study, the interaction between DNA and the surface of detonation nanodiamonds and nanodiamonds with NV centers is investigated, and the quantitative parameters of this interaction are calculated. The influence of interaction of DNA with nanodiamonds on the fluorescent properties of nanodiamonds is established. A correlation was found between the efficiency of DNA interaction with the surface of the detonation nanodiamonds and the changes of their fluorescence: the more DNA bonds with the nanodiamond surface groups – the stronger the fluorescence of detonation nanodiamonds increases in water.

Keywords: nanodiamonds, DNA, interactions, fluorescence.
