In Vivo Fluorescence Imaging Of Fruit Fly With Soluble Quantum Dots
نویسندگان
چکیده
The ability of multi colour fluorescence imaging with water soluble carbon quantum dots (WSCQDs) in organisms and biological tissues has been explored using Drosophila melanogaster (fruit flies). Here we present strategies to visualize different developmental stages and their various internal organs in vivo and in vitro condition with multiple, distinct colors. Their viability and growth were not reduced by oral quantum dots ingestion. We demonstrate a new methodology in the field of bioimaging by using synthesized water soluble carbon quantum dots (WSCQDs) that will bring a revolution in the history of biomedical science.

متن کاملIn vivo Effects of CdSe Injection on Embryonic Development of Reproductive System
The use of quantum dots (QDots) as bright and photostable probes for long-term fluorescence imaging is gaining more interest. Thus far, (pre)clinical use of QDots remains limited, which is primarily caused by the potential toxicity of QDots. Most QDots consist of Cd2+ ions, which are known to cause high levels of toxicity. Therefore, the cytotoxic effects of CdSe quantum dots on embryonic devel...

متن کاملWater-soluble Ag(2)S quantum dots for near-infrared fluorescence imaging in vivo.
A one-step method for synthesizing water-soluble Ag(2)S quantum dots terminated with carboxylic acid group has been reported. The crystal structure and surface of the prepared Ag(2)S quantum dots were characterized. The prepared Ag(2)S quantum dots exhibited bright photoluminescence and excellent photostabilities. The photoluminescence emissions could be tuned from visible region to near-infrar...
