What are the Advantages of Quantum Dot Microscopy?
The primary advantages of quantum dot microscopy include:
High Resolution: Quantum dots provide superior resolution compared to traditional fluorophores. Long-Term Stability: Unlike organic dyes, quantum dots are less prone to photobleaching, allowing for longer observation times. Multiplexing Capability: Different quantum dots can be excited by the same light source but emit light at different wavelengths, enabling simultaneous detection of multiple targets.
