title: Modulating DNA-templated silver nanoclusters for fluorescence turn-on detection of thiol compounds.
abstract: Based on the fact that the fluorescence response pattern of a silver nanocluster to a specific analyte is highly dependent on the nature of the DNA template, we develop a novel fluorescence turn-on assay for thiol compounds with high specificity and sensitivity by modulating DNA-templated silver nanoclusters.
