Reihe: Methods in Molecular Biology

This third edition provides revised and expanded protocols of consolidated approaches as well as new trends in the field. Chapters guide readers through new approaches to optimize Quantum Dots’ (QD) properties, to evaluate their quantum yields, important features about preparative processes and characterizations of QDs, methods related to QDs for live cell applications, and the versatility of QDs in the bioanalytical and biosensing field. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
