Graphical Abstract

In article number 1800127, S. Shashank Chetty, A. Vadivel Murugan, and co-workers present ultrafast, single-pot microwave-solvothermal synthesis of near-infrared highly fluorescent 1-dodecanethiol functionalized CuInS2–ZnS nanocrystals and their subsequent phase-transformation via ligand-exchange using mercaptoundecanoic acid to prepare folic acid conjugates as an efficient nano-bioprobe for enhanced folate receptor–targeted subcutaneous melanoma imaging.
