Carbon Dots for Optical Imaging in Vivo.

The article reports on the result of the research which studied the carbon dots for optical imaging in vivo. The result suggests that carbon dots are not only brightly fluorescents in solution but well-based as contrast agents as reported. The result also illustrates that carbon dots which are injec...

Sumario:	The article reports on the result of the research which studied the carbon dots for optical imaging in vivo. The result suggests that carbon dots are not only brightly fluorescents in solution but well-based as contrast agents as reported. The result also illustrates that carbon dots which are injected in various ways into mice remains fluorescent in vivo that might open potential to optical imaging as well as biomedical applications.
