Abstract

A simple method for the preparation of highly fluorescent and stable, water-soluble CdSe–ZnS quantum dots is reported using calix[4]arene carboxylic acids as surface coating agents; the coating of the surface with the calixarene and the conjugation of antibodies to the quantum dots are confirmed by fluorescence correlation spectroscopy.
