Orgainc dyes have been widely used as fluorophores in biomedical imaging and detection. However, organic dyes are generally vulnerable to the physiological environment and are quickly photobleached under normal imaging conditions. Thus, the long-term biomedical imaging has recently been one of the hottest research topics. Qdots are nanometers sized crystalline clusters (110 nm) that are synthesized from a variety of semiconductor materials. In this study, polymeric carriers have been extensively studied for solubilization of hydrophobic drugs and bioactive agents due to their unique properties including the nano-scaled size, high water-solubility, high structural stability, high carrying capacity of hydrophobic agents, and easiness in introducing functional moieties on the outer shell. |
