چکیده
Nanoconjugates composed of CdSe-ZnS core-shell nanocrystals and pyrenyl ligands are shown to exhibit a double photoluminescence. Owing to the different response of the two emission signals towards oxygen, the nanocrystals function as high dynamic range ratiometric luminescent O(2) nanosensors.

متن کاملL- and D-cysteine functionalized CdS quantum dots as nanosensors for detection of L-morphine and D-methamphetamine
A new method in differentiation of chiral molecules is reported based on the fluorescence quenching of functionalized CdS quantum dots (CdS-QDs) as nanosensor by differing in the chirality of functionalization species. The chemically functionalized CdS-QDs with strong yellow emission were prepared using chiral L-cysteine (L-Cyst) and D-cysteine (D-Cyst) molecules. Then, the functionalized CdS-Q...
متن کاملLow cost referenced luminescent imaging of oxygen and pH with a 2-CCD colour near infrared camera.
A low cost imaging set-up for optical chemical sensors based on NIR-emitting dyes is presented. It is based on a commercially available 2-CCD colour near infrared camera, LEDs and tailor-made optical sensing materials for oxygen and pH. The set-up extends common ratiometric RGB imaging based on the red, green and blue channels of colour cameras by an additional NIR channel. The hardware and sof...
متن کاملUse of Luminescent CdSe–ZnS Nanocrystal Bioconjugates in Quantum Dot-Based Nanosensors
Biomolecules labeled with luminescent colloidal semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) have potential for use in numerous applications, including fluoro-immunoassays and biological imaging. QD labels exhibit size-tunable narrow-band luminescent emission and high resistance to photodegradation. They also exhibit efficient Förster energy transfer between neighboring QDs of different sizes and their emi...
متن کاملDetection of Reactive Oxygen Species by a Carbon-Dot-Ascorbic Acid Hydrogel.
Detection of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is important in varied biological processes, disease diagnostics, and chemotherapeutic drug screening. We constructed a ROS sensor comprising an ascorbic-acid-based hydrogel encapsulating luminescent amphiphilic carbon-dots (C-dots). The sensing mechanism is based upon ROS-induced oxidation of the ascorbic acid units within the hydrogel scaffold; as a ...
