Fluorescent Nanorods and Nanospheres for Real-Time In Vivo Probing of Nanoparticle Shape-Dependent Tumor Penetration

Shape dependent: Fluorescent quantum-dot-based nanospheres and nanorods with identical hydrodynamic size and surface properties but different aspect ratios were developed for real-time in vivo tumor imaging. The nanorods exhibited superior transport and distribution into mammary tumors in vivo versu...
