Biomimetic synthesis of RPL14B-based CdSe quantum dots for the detection of heavy metal copper ions.

In the present study, an -expressed yeast ribosomal protein was used as a template for synthesizing RPL14B-based CdSe quantum dots the quasi-biosynthesis strategy at low temperature. The synthetic bionic RPL14B-based CdSe quantum dots were characterized using TEM, HRTEM, and EDX spectra, and the results showed that the synthesized quantum dots were CdSe quantum dots with a crystal face spacing of 0.21 and 0.
