Quantum dots (QDs) containing surface carboxylic groups have been successfully modified using biotinylated glycopolymer and carbohydrate/biotin reagents via EDC coupling. The biotinylated glycopolymer was synthesized in controlled dimension via the reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization of the three monomers
