QDs

It's up to you and all us QDs (Quaking and Quacking Ducks) to do our bit for the short story!

From comparative measurements of samples with Rhodamine B and CdSe/ZnS QDs it is established that PbS LSCs generate nearly twice the photocurrent in silicon cells than the other materials, achieving an integrated optical efficiency of 12.6%.

The researchers 'goal was to use the RNAi-based approach to specifically inhibit the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway - a key signal cascade for cancer cell proliferation and apoptosis - in brain tumor cells, which were surrounded by non-malignant cells, thus demonstrating the target specificity of a class of siRNA quantum dots (siRNA-QDs) that they developed.

The performance of chemically synthesized lead sulfide (PbS) quantum dots (QDs) in planar, nontracking luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) is evaluated using spectroscopic and photovoltaic techniques.

Their study, the first to report on how different pH levels may affect the safety of QDs, appears in the Jan. 15 issue of ACS 'Environmental Science & Technology, a semi-monthly journal.

Significant increases in Il-6, Mip-2 and Mcp-1 mRNA were detected in lung tissue, 3 h and 24 h following instillation of SWCNT, CB and QDs.

Thirdly, we compared effects of instillation in ApoE - / - mice of three carbonaceous particles; CB, fullerenes C60 (C60) and single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) as well as gold particles and quantum dots (QDs).

However, at moderately acidic or alkaline conditions, many of the QD-exposed bacteria died as QDs shells decomposed, releasing their content of toxic metals.
