Abstract
An indicator with double tracers has been developed so as to improve the accuracy and stability of quantitative analysis of renal injury. The indicator based on mono-dispersed 89Sr-doped CdSe QDs@PAMAM with tight core–shell structure and controllable size was synthesized. When intravenously injected in diabetic nephropathy models, the measurements of indicators in urine could effectively reflect the level of renal injury via both radioanalytical and florescent method, and comparable results were obtained with the creatinine in blood. The double trackable indicator of renal injury was capable to indirectly reflect the renal injury with improved accuracy and stability.
