The optical properties of the QDs and chitosan nanobeads were investigated. The relative quantum yield of chitosan nanobeads with QDs and Gd-DTPA was found to improve considerably compared to that of unmodified and 3MPA-modified QDs. Using the multifunctional chitosan nanobeads, various in-vitro and in-vivo imaging techniques can be used to study the biodistribution of nanoparticles and their intracellular pathway. | Source Title: | Advanced Materials | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/67176 | ISSN: | 09359648 | DOI: | 10.1002/adma.200401650 |
