CdS量子点的酿酒酵母仿生合成及光谱表征

以酿酒酵母为载体,常温下利用仿生法成功合成了CdS量子点。荧光发射光谱、紫外吸收光谱以及荧光显微镜照片证明,该方法合成的CdS量子点的荧光发射峰位置在443nm,在紫外灯下能发蓝绿色荧光。透射电子显微镜(TEM)表征结果表明,该仿生法合成的CdS量子点为六方纤锌矿结构。以荧光发射和紫外吸收光谱为性能指标,考察了酿酒酵母生长时期、Cd2+的反应浓度以及反应时间等条件对合成CdS量子点的影响。当酿酒酵母处于生长稳定期初期时,与浓度为0.5mmol.L-1的Cd2+共培养24h后所合成的CdS量子点荧光最强。实验中观察到,换液培养可有效提高酿酒酵母合成CdS量子点的产量。

Biosynthesis of CdS quantum dots in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and spectroscopic characterization

In the present work, CdS quantum dots (QDs) were successfully biosynthesized at room temperature by using saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast as a carrier. Fluorescence emission spectra, ultraviolet-visible (UV/Vis) absorption spectra, and inverted fluorescence microscope images confirmed that saccharomyces cerevisiae can be used to biosynthesize CdS QDs. The as-prepared CdS QDs show the fluorescence emission peak at 443 nm and emit blue-green fluorescence under UV light (with excitation at 365 nm). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was applied to characterize the as-prepared CdS QDs and the TEM results showed that the as-prepared CdS QDs had the structure of hexagonal wurtzite. Fluorescence emission spectrum and UV/Vis absorption spectrum were used as the performance indicatiors to study the effects of saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast incubation times, reactant Cd2+ concentrations and reaction times on CdS QDs synthesis. Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast grown in early stable phase can get the highest fluorescence intensity of CdS QDs when they were co-cultured with 0.5 mmol x L(-1) of Cd2+ with 24 h incubation time. Furthermore, much more CdS QDs can be obtained by changing the culture medium during the synthesis process.
