l-tryptophan adsorption differentially changes the optical behaviour of pseudo-enantiomeric cysteine-functionalized quantum dots: Towards chiral fluorescent biosensors
Water-soluble chiral graphene quantum dots (GQDs) with a strong blue emission were synthesized by covalently immobilizing l-cysteine or d-cysteine onto the GQDs. Either the amine or the thiol group of cysteine was used to make the bond through amide coupling or thiol-ene click chemistry respectively...
