Quantum dots and other nanoparticles: what can they offer to drug discovery?

Mihrimah Ozkan1.   

Abstract

Nanocrystals (quantum dots) and other nanoparticles (gold colloids, magnetic bars, nanobars, dendrimers and nanoshells) have been receiving a lot of attention recently with their unique properties for potential use in drug discovery, bioengineering and therapeutics. In this review, structural, optical and biological assets of nanocrystals are summarized and their applications to drug discovery studies are discussed. Unique properties of these nanoparticles can offer new advancements in drug discovery.
