Can earthworms biosynthesize highly luminescent quantum dots?

Band gap tunable cadmium selenide (CdSe) quantum dots (QDs) were synthesized within earthworms that emit in the middle of the visible spectrum. We demonstrated that this luminescence emission is a combination of the earthworm's protein and QD luminescence, such that the contribution of QDs in t...

description Band gap tunable cadmium selenide (CdSe) quantum dots (QDs) were synthesized within earthworms that emit in the middle of the visible spectrum. We demonstrated that this luminescence emission is a combination of the earthworm's protein and QD luminescence, such that the contribution of QDs in the luminescence was negligible. Eisenia fetida earthworms were used for QD biosynthesis and were exposed to different concentrations of CdCl2 and Na2SeO3 in standard soil for an adequate exposure time. The size of the CdSe QDs based on the effective mass model was in agreement with the size measured from the transmission electron microscopy analysis, with an average diameter of 7 nm. Ultraviolet–visible and photoluminescence analyses confirmed the synthesis of CdSe QDs with unique absorption and luminescence at 430 nm and 605 nm, respectively.
