Aflatoxin is a highly toxic substance, of which aflatoxin B1 is the most toxic and carcinogenic among aflatoxins. In this paper, the team used homemade CdSe/Zns quantum dots to construct a fluorescent immunoprobe and all-antigen coupling with aflatoxin B1. It used a self-developed fluorescence intensity detector to detect aflatoxin B1 in five traditional Chinese medicines, namely, ginseng, Panax ginseng, Chuanxiong rhizome, rhubarb, and yam. The recoveries were 80.0-102.0%; the relative standard deviations (RSD)were from 2.4 to 9.2.

detection suffers from slow analysis time and high costs, along with the need for specificity. While state-of-the-art electrochemical biosensors are cost-efficient and easy to implement, their sensitivity and analysis time still require improvement. In this work, we present a paper-based electrochemical biosensor utilizing magnetic core-shell FeO@CdSe/ZnS quantum dots (MQDs) to achieve fast detection, low cost, and high sensitivity.

The use of nanostructures to enhance the emission of single-photon sources has attracted some attention in the last decade due to the development of quantum technologies. In particular, the use of metallic and high-refractive-index dielectric materials has been proposed. However, the utility of moderate-refractive-index dielectric nanostructures to achieve more efficient single-photon sources remains unexplored.
