We report herein the facile surface-functionalization of one type of biocompatible, oligomeric nanoparticles1-NPswith NIR-emitting CdTe/CdS QDs and folate for tumor-targeted imagingin vivo. The –NH2and –SH groups of cysteine residues on the1-NPswere utilized to covalently conjugate CdTe/CdS QDs andMal-FAto prepare the hybrid nanoparticles1-NPs-QDs-FA. As-prepared1-NPs-QDs-FAshowed NIR-fluorescence emission at 734 nm, selective uptake by FR-overexpressing tumor cellsin vitro, and selective FR-overexpressing tumor-targeted imagingin vivo. This first example of oligomeric/inorganic hybrid nanoparticles provides people with new type of biomaterials for tumor-targeted imaging with high selectivity.
