title: Green synthesis and potential application of low-toxic Mn : ZnSe/ZnS core/shell luminescent nanocrystals.
abstract: A microwave-assisted synthetic procedure is presented for the preparation of low-toxic Mn:ZnSe/ZnS core/shell nanocrystals to label antibodies for selective detection of human immunoglobulin G (IgG) based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between the Mn:ZnSe/ZnS and Au nanoparticles (AuNPs).
