Quantum Dot (QD) has become the current most powerful technology for single molecule tracking. Its excellent ability to resist photobleaching, high signal to noise ratio, and large Stoke’s Shift are employed for live cell imaging. QD is attached to Adenosine 5’-triphosphate (ATP), a universal energy...
