Abstract

Selective and sensitive fluorescent nanoprobe based on AgInS2-ZnS quantum dots for the rapid detection of Cr (III) ions in the midst of interfering ions

“…Synthesis of water soluble AgInS 2 -ZnS QDs was carried out based on our previous works with modifications [23][24][25]. Briefly, silver nitrate, indium nitrate, sodium citrate, GSH were sequentially added to 100 ml of water and the pH was adjusted to 5.4 using 0.1 M HNO 3 /NaOH.…”

Sequential, low-temperature aqueous synthesis of Ag–In–S/Zn quantum dots via staged cation exchange under biomineralization conditions

“…7c). 93,94 This highlights the apparent biocompatibility of the AIS/Zn QDs synthesized via the sequential, low-temperature biomineralization-initiated process described herein, underscoring their potential for live cell imaging especially at more common nM concentrations and shorter incubation times.…”

Effect of Fe-=SUB=-3-=/SUB=-O-=SUB=-4-=/SUB=- nanoparticle concentration on the luminescence of AgInS-=SUB=-2-=/SUB=-/ZnS in hybrid complex CaCO-=SUB=-3-=/SUB=--Fe-=SUB=-3-=/SUB=-O-=SUB=-4-=/SUB=-@AgInS-=SUB=-2-=/SUB=-/ZnS

“…The spherical shape of vaterite has a porous internal structure that allows the use in various biomedical applications as a system for encapsulation, transportation, and controlled release of molecules of therapeutic interest (drug delivery) [33][34][35]. AgInS 2 /ZnS QDs stabilized with TGA were deposed on the microspheres surface by electrostatic interaction between the outer positive PAH polyelectrolyte layer on the surface of microspheres and negative thiol groups on the surface of AgInS 2 /ZnS QDs [36]. AgInS 2 /ZnS QDs were added in excess to CaCO 3 -Fe 3 O 4 complexes, nonjoined dots were removed, and the obtained complexes were washed with distilled water.…”
