• Description: The spectroscopic and electrochemical methods are tested for influenza detection in this study. Cadmium containing quantum dots (QDs) solutions were investigated. Total Cd content is determined by electrochemistry. Utilization of Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) for QDs analysis in liquid solution deposited on the surface of carrier medium was studied. For comparison of the results the fluorescence measurement were provided. It was confirmed that LIBS technique is advantageous for detection of metal-containing nanoparticles.
