Abstract
Objective: In the trending world of new technologies as per the demand and a form of excellence the various products
enriching the mankind are being reduced in size as well as efcate or optimized in their work just being a companion in
day to day changing life. Likewise in the eld of medical sciences and pharmaceuticals the change is being
advantageous. One of the glorious changes is the development of the QD's, which has punched the way to optimize the
serious diseased condition of organisms and making them free from the subsequent as well as inappropriate method of
diagnosis using various dyes. Working on the physical phenomenon the QD is offering a sessile form of diagnosis
because of which the cure is being prominent day by day and we are able to ght against the major disease also with a bit
of smile. It has maintained a successful place today by proving a best way for diagnosis with advancement from that of
dyes. Method: Various reports were taken from research paper published in journals, data from various books and other
online available literature. Conclusion: In this review, we have tried out to cover up the developmental strategy of the
QD's in a glorious way along with its manufacturing, uses, applications and future aspects, that how promising this new
element of this era still need to proved.

Synthesis
The organic phase method
The organometallic method produces QDs, which are generally
capped with hydrophobic ligands (e.g. trioctylphosphine oxide
TOPO or trioctylphosphine - TOP) and thus are not directly
applicable in bio-applications as being used in biologically, QDs
need to be hydrophilic and hence requires some of the surface
modifications to achieve biocompatibility and stability
(Drbohlavova et al., 2009; Akbarzadeh et al., 2012).
Coordinating solvents stabilize the bulk semiconductors and
prevent aggregation similar to the QDs grow. The semiconductor
core material must be protected from degradation and oxidation
to optimize QDs presentation. Shell growth and surface
amendment improve stability and increase photoluminescence of
the core. The inorganic core-shell semiconductor nanoparticles
are soluble in nonpolar solvents only. However, a further process
is attractive for the QDs used in biological system. As a result
