title: Individually color-coded plasmonic nanoparticles for RGB analysis.
abstract: Colors of scattering light of single gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were coded with the tricolor (RGB) system by assigning digital values to R, G and B and then this was applied to binding studies of thiols to AuNPs through RGB analysis.
