摘要 |
Nanostructures, methods of preparing nanostructures, methods of detecting targets in subjects, and methods of treating diseases in subjects, are disclosed. An embodiment, among others, of the nanostructure includes a quantum dot and a hydrophobic protection structure. The hydrophobic protecti on structure includes a capping ligand and an amphiphilic copolymer, where the hydrophobic protection structure encapsulates the quantum dot. |
