Amphiphilic p-sulfonatocalix[4]arene-coated CdSe/ZnS quantum dots for the optical detection of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine.
Water-soluble CdSe/ZnS (core-shell) semiconductor quantum dots surface-modified with tetrahexyl ether derivatives of p-sulfonatocalix[4]arene were synthesized for the optical detection of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine.
