  • Title: Green synthesis of peptide-templated fluorescent copper nanoclusters for temperature sensing and cellular imaging.
    Author: Huang H, Li H, Wang AJ, Zhong SX, Fang KM, Feng JJ.
    Journal: Analyst; 2014 Dec 21; 139(24):6536-41. PubMed ID: 25347037.
    Abstract:
    A simple and green approach was developed for the preparation of fluorescent Cu nanoclusters (NCs) using the artificial peptide CLEDNN as a template. The as-synthesized Cu NCs exhibited a high fluorescence quantum yield (7.3%) and good stability, along with excitation and temperature dependent fluorescent properties, which could be employed for temperature sensing. Further investigations demonstrated low toxicity of Cu NCs for cellular imaging.
