Abstract
⺠In this paper, the binding of the CdTe@GSH QDs to human serum albumin (HSA) was studied using a fluorescence spectroscopy. ⺠The quenching mechanism was investigated in terms of the association constants and basic thermodynamic parameters. ⺠Furthermore, alteration of the secondary protein structure in the presence of the QDs was confirmed by synchronous fluorescence spectra. ⺠The research can help us assess biological toxicity of QDs and further expand the application scope of QDs.
