TL;DR: The first hyperpolarizability of aqueous suspensions of polyphosphate stabilized CdS nanocrystals of different mean sizes was determined by the hyper-Rayleigh scattering technique as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: The nanocrystals were obtained using a simple procedure based on the arrested precipitation of ZnSe in aqueous solution in the presence of a thiol-alkyl stabilizing agent, in air and at room temperature.

TL;DR: The results of the study indicate that CdS/Cd(OH)₂ QD caused local neutrophil inflammation in the lungs that partially regressed after the 3-week recovery period.

TL;DR: The nanocrystals were characterized by transmission electronic microscopy and powder X-ray diffraction analysis and the optical properties were determined by electronic absorption, excitation and emission spectroscopies and are discussed in terms of chemical changes that occur at the surface of the particles.

TL;DR: The staining pattern of the cells and biofilms demonstrate that QDs were effectively bioconjugated to Con A with specific labeling of saccharide-rich structures on C. albicans, which opens new possibilities to monitor glucose and mannose molecules through fluorescence techniques, which can help to optimize phototherapy protocols for this kind of fungus.
