Physico-chemical mobility of cells in three dimensions is dependent on the development of filipodia, which is the fundamental instinct for survival and other cellular functions in live cells. Specifically, our present research paper describes the synthesis of 3-Mercaptopropoinc acid (MPA) capped CdSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs), which are biocompatible and utilized for cellular bioimaging applications. Using the pancreatic cell lines BXCP3 cells, we successfully demonstrated the applicability of MPA-capped QDs for intercellular filopodia imaging. Employing these QDs, we examined the dynamics of filopodia formation in real-time along the Z-axis by using confocal laser microscopy.
