Uniform water-soluble MoS quantum dots (WS-MSQDs) were synthesized via a sequential combination of sintering/etching/exfoliation method and solvothermal route. The obtained WS-MSQDs with average size of approximately 3.4 nm exhibited sufficient water solubility and remarkable fluorescence properties. The WS-MSQDs were utilized as a probe for detection of Fe ions with high selectivity and specificity. Furthermore, the WS-MSQDs exhibited high fluorescence stability under different conditions. Finally, the WS-MSQDs were successfully applied for the fluorescence imaging of Fe in living cells, which exhibited practical potential for biomedical applications.
通过烧结/蚀刻/剥离法和溶剂热法的顺序组合合成了均匀的水溶性二硫化钼量子点(WS-MSQDs)。所获得的平均尺寸约为3.4 nm的WS-MSQDs表现出足够的水溶性和显著的荧光特性。WS-MSQDs被用作检测铁离子的探针,具有高选择性和特异性。此外,WS-MSQDs在不同条件下表现出高荧光稳定性。最后,WS-MSQDs成功应用于活细胞中铁的荧光成像,在生物医学应用中显示出实际潜力。
