CdS QDs biosynthesis by Pedobacter sp. UYP1. a Biosynthesis of fluorescent nanoparticles through time. Cell suspensions were pelleted, and reaction tubes were exposed to UV in order to follow QD formation by the fluorescence presented. b Control conditions and biosynthesis condition tubes. Note that the negative control tube has the biosynthesis conditions, but no bacterial cells were added. c Purified and concentrated CdS QDs
