Probing QD stablility : A convenient solvent‐evaporation approach to prepare water‐soluble, biocompatible CdSe/ZnS (core/shell) quantum dots (QDs, see figure) is reported. The QDs are modified with a surfactant and polyamidoamine molecules that possess an ester terminal group. This method avoids complicated multistep ligand‐exchange procedures and makes versatile QD‐based probes a possibility for investigating intracellular transport and other cellular‐signaling pathways.
