CdTe-MSA quantum dots prepared by a green hydrothermal route as highly selective ‘turn-off’ fluorescent nanosensors for Lead(II) detection in environmental water monitoring

In this study, water-dispersible CdTe quantum dots (QDs) capped with mercaptosuccinic acid (MSA) were synthesized via a green one-pot hydrothermal route and explored as efficient fluorescent probes for Pb2+ detection in aqueous media. The obtained QDs, with an average diameter of 3.4 nm, exhibited h...
