Abstract:

Cadmium selenide quantum dot (CdSe QD) is currently one of the most widely studied quantum dots, which has
broad potential applications in the fields of biology, medicine and food science. As cadmium selenide quantum dot has been
widely studied and applied, its safety has gained much attention. This review focuses on the classification and preparation of
CdSe quantum dots, as well as their safety and applications in the food field.

Key words: cadmium selenide quantum dot, safety, food
