Highly fluorescent CdTe quantum dots with reduced cytotoxicity-A Robust biomarker

l-Cysteine (Cys) capped CdTe quantum dots (CdTe@Cys QDs) were successfully synthesized in an aqueous medium. The synthesized CdTe@Cys samples were analyzed using Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, fluorescence (FL) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), confocal microsco...
