Biocompatible Polymer/Quantum Dots Hybrid Materials: Current Status and Future Developments
Quantum dots (QDs) are nanometer-sized semiconductor particles with tunable fluorescent optical property that can be adjusted by their chemical composition, size, or shape. In the past 10 years, they have been demonstrated as a powerful fluorescence tool for biological and biomedical applications, such as diagnostics, biosensing and biolabeling. QDs with high fluorescence quantum yield and opti...
متن کاملFacile synthesis of water-soluble and biocompatible fluorescent nitrogen-doped carbon dots for cell imaging.
A simple, facile and green hydrothermal method was developed in the synthesis of water-soluble nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) from streptomycin. The as-prepared N-CDs displayed bright blue fluorescence under the irradiation of UV light, together with a high quantum yield of 7.6% and good biocompatibility as demonstrated by the cell viability assay. Thus, the N-CDs can be used as fluorescent...
متن کاملHigh throughput synthesis of uniform biocompatible polymer beads with high quantum dot loading using microfluidic jet-mode breakup.
Uniform polymer microbeads with highly loaded quantum dots (QDs) are produced using high-throughput coherent jet breakup of a biocompatible poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) prepolymer resin, followed by in-line photopolymerization. A spiraling and gradually widening channel enables maximum absorption of radiated UV light for the in-line photopolymerization without coalescence and cloggi...
متن کاملHighly fluorescent and bioresorbable polymeric nanoparticles with enhanced photostability for cell imaging.
We report a facile and general strategy for enhancing the photostability of organic fluorophores for bioimaging applications. As a proof of concept, bright and robust fluorescence was observed in solid states of a well-defined synthetic polymer polycaprolactone consisting of di(thiophene-2-yl)-diketopyrrolopyrrole covalently linked in the middle of the polymer chain as a biocompatible and biore...

Light responsive materials have attracted immense research efforts due to their widespread applications, e.g. in ultrahighdensity optical data storage and super-resolution microscopy. In these fields, the modulation of the fluorescence intensity by photochromic molecules is of particular interest. Photochromic diarylethene (DAET) derivatives exhibit a colourless open and a coloured closed struc...
