چکیده
An electrogenerated precursor has been developed for green synthesis of highly luminescent aqueous CdTe quantum dots (QDs) with unique quantum yield and strong electrogenerated luminescence, which can access cellular targets via specific binding and have potential application as biolabels in highly sensitive biosensing and cell imaging.

Facile preparation of highly luminescent CdTe quantum dots within hyperbranched poly(amidoamine)s and their application in bio-imaging
A new strategy for facile preparation of highly luminescent CdTe quantum dots (QDs) within amine-terminated hyperbranched poly(amidoamine)s (HPAMAM) was proposed in this paper. CdTe precursors were first prepared by adding NaHTe to aqueous Cd2+ chelated by 3-mercaptopropionic sodium (MPA-Na), and then HPAMAM was introduced to stabilize the CdTe precursors. After microwave irradiation, highly fl...
متن کاملA one-pot aqueous synthesis of high-luminescent thiol-capped CdTe and its bioapplication.
Our study described a synthesis of thiol-capped high-luminescent (quantum yield as high as 80%) CdTe quantum dots (QDs) with a facile method in aqueous phase. The fluorescence of the as-prepared CdTe QDs could be tuned from 500 nm to 650 nm. More importantly, after beta-actin conjugation, the CdTe QDs were successfully conjugated with live cells to observe their configurations, demonstrating th...
متن کاملOne-step growth of high luminescence CdTe quantum dots with low cytotoxicity in ambient atmospheric conditions.
A simple, rapid, cost-efficient and convenient method has been developed for synthesis of water-soluble CdTe quantum dots (QDs) under ambient atmospheric conditions. Using this method, the preparation of Te precursor and growth of CdTe QDs were achieved with one-step synthetic route. Under the optimal conditions, the as-prepared CdTe QDs possessed a high photoluminescence quantum yield (84%), a...
متن کاملSynthesis and Bio-Imaging Application of Highly Luminescent Mercaptosuccinic Acid-Coated CdTe Nanocrystals
Here we present a facile one-pot method to prepare high-quality CdTe nanocrystals in aqueous phase. In contrast to the use of oxygen-sensitive NaHTe or H(2)Te as Te source in the current synthetic methods, we employ more stable sodium tellurite as the Te source for preparing highly luminescent CdTe nanocrystals in aqueous solution. By selecting mercaptosuccinic acid (MSA) as capping agent and p...

A facile one-step synthesis of CdTe quantum dots (QDs) in aqueous solution by atmospheric microwave reactor has been developed using 3-mercaptopropionic acid reduction of TeO2 directly. The obtained CdTe QDs were characterized by ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, fluorescent spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, multifunctional imaging electron spectrometer (XPS), and high-resolution transmis...
