Surface Coating of Graphene Quantum Dots Using Mussel-Inspired Polydopamine for Biomedical Optical Imaging
Abstract
Because of the superiority of GQDs (graphene quantum dots) in biomedical imaging, in terms of biocompatibility and toxicity of semiconductor quantum dots, GQDs bring new opportunities for the diagnosis and detection of diseases. In this study, we synthesized photoluminescent (PL) graphene quantum dots (GQDs) through a simple exfoliation and oxidation process, and then coated them with polydopamine (pDA) for enhanced stability in water and low toxicity in vivo. From the results, the GQDs coated with pDA showed an excellent stability of PL intensity. It showed that the PL intensity of noncoated GQDs in PBS solution rapidly decreased with time, resulting in a 45% reduction of the PL intensity for 14 days of incubation in PBS solution. After coating with polydopamine, PL intensities of polydopamine-coated GQDs was maintained more stably for 14 days compared with uncoated GQDs. We have observed the in vitro and in vivo biocompatibility of pDA-coated GQDs in nude mice. The overall observation revealed that pDA-coated GQDs could be used as a long-term optical imaging agent as well as a biocompatible drug carrier.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
