Toxicity and biodistribution of aqueous synthesized ZnS and ZnO quantum dots in mice.

abstract：:Cadmium (Cd) is a component in quantum dot 705 (QD705). Whether QD705 behaves similar to Cd in vivo is of great concern. We compared the distributional kinetics of cadmium chloride (CdCl(2)) and QD705 in mice after intravenous injection. QD705 showed a longer plasma and body retention than CdCl(2) and could be detecte...
