In this paper, the Gd 2 O 3 :Eu 3+ nanospheres with the ratio Eu 3+ /Gd 3+ of 6% mol were successfully synthesized by a multi-step chemical method with the mean nanoparticles size of about 200 to 220 nm and a low standard deviation. The morphology, structure and optical behavior of as-synthesized and annealed Gd 2 O 3 :6%Eu 3+ samples were investigated by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), X-ray diffractions (XRD), and photoluminescence spectroscope (PL) The luminescence lifetime of samples was also investigated and discussed. The biomedical nanocomplexes of Gd 2 O 3 :6%Eu 3+ with IgG were fabricated by glutaraldehyde linking after covering nanospheres with amino Silica. The luminescent nanocomplexes Gd 2 O 3 :6%Eu 3+ @Silica-NH 2 -IgG with different concentrations have been incubated with CEA tumor cells to investigate and evaluate the detection capacity by using a fluorescence optical microscopy for the early detection and treatment of cancer.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
