Size measured by DLS, expressed as z-average and PDI

NPs	Average size (nm)	PDI
QDs	120.90±2.37	0.35±0.11
gH625-QDs	171.40±1.27	0.35±0.05

Note: Data are expressed as mean ± SD of three separate experiments for each of the two batch formulations, with at least 13 measurements for each.

Abbreviations: NPs, nanoparticles; PDI, polydispersity index; QDs, quantum dots; SD, standard deviation; DLS, dynamic light scattering.
