It is easy to cause the fluorescence of quantum dots to weaken
The patent number is 201310117034.4, and the patent title is "a gold nanostar quantum dot composite cell probe with dual functions of photothermal and fluorescence enhancement and its preparation method and application". Although the disclosed composite probe has photothermal conversion and However, due to the following three reasons, some improvements are needed to make it more suitable for photothermal-fluorescent composite labeling in vivo: (1) due to the small number of gold nanostar spikes, The length of each spike is not easy to control the consistency, resulting in a large width of its absorption spectrum, which overlaps with the absorption spectrum of near-infrared quantum dots. In this way, some photothermal effects will also be generated when quantum dots are excited to emit light (that is, fluorescent tracer). The brightness of near-infrared light has a certain impact (but it has an enhancement effect on light with a wavelength shorter than orange, so it is suitable for marking superficial tumors); (2) The photothermal threshold of gold nanostars is 1.8W / cm 2 There is still room for further reduction; (3) Due to the longer spikes of gold nanostars, the 2 1. When preparing composite probes, it is not easy to control the diameter of composite probes to be less than 100nm, so it has a certain degree of negative impact on the labeling of living cells

Abstract

The present invention provides are a gold nanoflower structure and a preparation method therefor. The gold nanoflower structure is a gold nanoflower particle, with round-head columns being uniformly distributed at the periphery thereof, obtained by using gold octahedrons, gold balls or gold tetrahedrons as seed crystals and reducing chloroauric acid by using weak reductant in an environment of high-concentration polyvinylpyrrolidone. In addition, also provided in the present invention are a gold nanoflower/quantum dot composite probe for living cell immunofluorescent labeling and photothermal therapy, a preparation method therefor and a use thereof. In comparison with traditional probes, the probe, incorporates the features of photothermal therapy and fluorescent labeling, and is capable of killing cancer cells in an effective and directional way. Two light sources are adopted to bring a tremendous photothermal conversion efficiency and a greater enhancement on fluorescence intensity of quantum dots respectively, thus mutual interference of two effects are avoided tactfully. The coating of silicon dioxide averts the biotoxicity of the gold nanoflower and the quantum dot effectually, enabling the surface of the composite probe to be easily functionalized and also imparting an extraordinarily excellent biocompatibility to the composite probe.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of composite nanoprobes, in particular to a gold nanoflower / quantum dot composite probe for immunofluorescence labeling and photothermal treatment of living cells. Background technique [0002] Quantum dots are nanomaterials artificially synthesized by a small number of atoms, also known as "artificial atoms". After being excited, they can emit fluorescence, change the structure of quantum dots, and adjust their excitation and emission wavelengths at will. It is used to label and locate the target cells after the specific antibody is activated, and maintain its physicochemical and luminescence stability in the cells for a long time. Replacing traditional dyes with quantum dots as fluorescent markers can overcome the disadvantages of large dye molecules (thus needing to make holes in cells and cannot be used for in vivo labeling), poor photochemical stability and spectral characteristics, and can be used for ...
