The role of intracellular trafficking of CdSe/ZnS QDs on their consequent toxicity profile

Abstract Background Nanoparticle interactions with cellular membranes and the kinetics of their transport and localization are important determinants of their functionality and their biological consequences. Understanding these phenomena is fundamental for the translation of such NPs from in vitro t...
