Biological applications of quantum dots.
Quantum dots (QDs) are a novel class of inorganic fluorophore which are gaining widespread recognition as a result of their exceptional photophysical properties. They are rapidly being applied to existing and emerging technologies, and could have an important role in many areas. Significant challenges remain, however, which must be understood and more fully defined before they can be widely val...
متن کاملOne-Pot Synthesis of Biocompatible CdSe/CdS Quantum Dots and Their Applications as Fluorescent Biological Labels
We developed a novel one-pot polyol approach for the synthesis of biocompatible CdSe quantum dots (QDs) using poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) as a capping ligand at 240°C. The morphological and structural characterization confirmed the formation of biocompatible and monodisperse CdSe QDs with several nanometers in size. The encapsulation of CdS thin layers on the surface of CdSe QDs (CdSe/CdS core-she...
متن کاملApplications of Quantum Dots in Cell Tracking
Tracking cells after transplantation is always one the main concerns of researchers in the field of regenerative medicine. Finding a tracer with long stability and low cytotoxicity can be considered as a solution for this issue. Semiconductor nanocrystals, also called quantum dots (QDs), have unique photophysical properties which make them as suitable candidate in this setting. Broad-range exci...
متن کاملBiological Applications of Quantum Dots: a Review
Research on fluorescent semiconductor nanocrystals, also known as quantum dots (QDs), has evolved over the past two decades from the field of electronic materials science to biological applications. QDs have unique chemical and physical properties as a result of their size and highly compact structure. They emit light over a broad range of the electromagnetic spectrum from visible to infrared, ...
