## Abstract Single particle tracking (SPT) techniques were developed to explore bioβmolecules dynamics in live cells at single molecule sensitivity and nanometer spatial resolution. Recent developments in quantum dots (Qdots) surface coating and bioβconjugation schemes have made them most suitable
**Several strategies borrowed from the field of gene delivery** are adapted to enhance delivery of semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) to the interior of live cells. To traffic QDs to subcellular organelles, QDs were then derivatized with known peptide localization sequences, demonstrating the ability
