Quantum Dots: A New Hope for the Pharmaceutical Field

Quantum dots (QDs) are nanoparticles that have been developed for a number of biological and biomedical applications, such as drug delivery simultaneous imaging several cells. As result their unique physicochemical features, QDs shown remarkable potential in receptor-based targeting. Functionalized (f-QDs) nano-sized smart systems can deliver wide spectrum bioactive. Surface modified fluorescent carbon has received interest targeting ligand achieving cellular with increased specificity. Several surface-designed conjugated currently being investigated cancer treatment, the results awaited bated breath. This review emphasizes different synthesis methods, characterizations, applications therapies.
