CdTe quantum dots was synthesized and used to quantitative analysis of Ponceau 4R in solution. With the excitation wavelength of 380nm the emission of CdTe quantum dots was quenched obviously by Ponceau 4R. In order to detect Ponceau 4R in mild condition the influences of fluorescence emission wavelength of CdTe quantum dots, pH value, temperature and reaction time were examined to establish the experimental condition. The linear response of the fluorescence intensity of CdTe quantum dots to Ponceau 4R allowed the quantitative analysis of Ponceau 4R in a range of 2.5-25μg/mL, and the limit of detection for Ponceau 4R was 0.025μg/mL. In addition, the responsive mechanism of this reaction system was investigated in detail by using the modified Stern-Volmer equation and thermodynamic calculation. Particularly, this method was used to quantitatively analyze the real sample, which indicated that this method could be more widely applied in similar samples.

Homogeneous analysis techniques offer several advantages as alternatives to heterogeneous immunoassays, such as simplicity and rapidity. In this study, a visual homogeneous immunoassay without a labeling process was developed based on target-induced steric hindrance to regulate competitive recognition mechanism. Specifically, as the analyte concentration varies, the change of microenvironment based on steric hindrance could affect the recognition of Cu by signal probes.

Inhibitory effects of cadmium and hydrophilic cadmium telluride quantum dots on the white rot fungus .

Heliyon

January 2025

Department of Microbiology (Biocenter 1, Viikinkaari 9), Faculty of Agriculture and Forestry, University of Helsinki, Finland.

The white rot fungus was investigated for its ability to decolorize the reactive textile dye Reactive Black 5 (RB5) that was co-exposed to CdCl and quantum dots (QDs) consisting of a CdTe core capped with two different hydrophilic organic ligands (NAC and MPA). Without co-exposure, completely decolorizes RB5 within 9 days. The highest inhibitory effect was found for soluble CdCl with an EC of 583 μg l, followed by MPA-QDs (10,628 μg l) and NAC-QDs (17,575 μg l).

The optimal method for three-dimensional thermal imaging within cells involves collecting intracellular temperature responses while simultaneously obtaining corresponding 3D positional information. Current temperature measurement techniques based on the photothermal properties of quantum dots face several limitations, including high cytotoxicity and low fluorescence quantum yields. These issues affect the normal metabolic processes of tumor cells.

Although fluorescence analysis methods are widely used in pesticide residue detection, improving their sensitivity and selectivity remains a challenge. This paper presents a novel ratio fluorescence sensor based on the molecular imprinting polymers (MIPs) and metal-enhanced fluorescence for visual detection of dicamba (DIC). Calcium fluoride (CaF) quantum dots (QDs) were immobilized on the surface of Ag@MIPs, resulting in a blue fluorescence response signal (Ag@MIPs-CaF).
