“…There is considerable interest in the use of quantum dots as inorganic fluorophores because they have significant advantages over conventionally used fluorescent markers. For this, it is necessary that these nanoparticles are biocompatible so that they are conjugated properly to biological molecules, by means of bioconjugation techniques [4][5][6][7].…”

Nanoscience and nanobiotechnology have aroused great academic and technological interest. Works relating biomaterials at the nanoscale can reach new biotechnologies and help in the development and use of tools for bioimage and diagnosis applications. In this work we demonstrated the advantages of magic sized quantum dots as luminescent markers and probes to bioimage applications. The visualization of MSQDs bioconjugated with biological probes in cells were performed at periods greater than 2 h, and visualization with no commercial dye would not be possible. Therefore, we demonstrated that theses biocompatible nanocrystals are luminescent markers and probes to diagnosis.
