Abstract

The invention belongs to the fields of nanometer materials and biomedical analysis chemistry, and particularly relates to a one-step method for synthesizing DNA functionalized Zn doped CdTe quantum dots. The quantum dot probe is prepared by connecting phosphorylated DNA to surface of quantum dot by coordination of sulfur and cadmium, and quantum dot surface can be connected with 1-2 DNA fragments. The preparation method is as below: in a synthesis process of quantum dots, phosphorylated DNA is added to obtain the DNA functionalized quantum dot probe through a one-step reaction. The probe can be used as a bifunctional nanometer material, has high fluorescence quantum yield, good biocompatibility and good dispersion, and can be used for detection of DNA fragment and protein, cell identification and tumor targeting. Compared with a traditional DNA marked quantum dot method, the preparation method provided by the invention is simple and low-cost, does not require expensive preparation facilities, can be accomplished in general chemistry laboratory, and can be widely used in fields of biological detection, cellular imaging, target tracing and disease diagnosis, etc.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical fields of nanomaterials and biomedical analytical chemistry, in particular to a method for synthesizing DNA functionalized Zn-doped CdTe quantum dots in one step. Background technique [0002] Quantum dots, also known as semiconductor nanocrystals, are zero-dimensional nanomaterials with a diameter of 1-10 nm. Due to their own quantum effects, quantum dots have size effects, surface effects, quantum tunneling effects and dielectric confinement effects. It is precisely because of its special physical effects that quantum dots have unparalleled fluorescent properties compared with commonly used fluorescent dyes: wide excitation spectrum and continuous distribution, good stability, high luminous efficiency, and strong photobleaching resistance. In recent years, due to their unique optical properties, quantum dots have been studied more and more in analytical chemistry, biological detection, cell imaging, in vivo tra...
