A successful design of a novel dual functional green fluorescent CQD functionalized mesoporous silica based nano-theranostic agent for targeted bio-imaging and bio-responsive drug release has been reported. This study proves that the release of a preloaded anticancer drug is triggered by exposure to a tumor like environment which makes it an efficient theranostic system for cancer therapy.
