title: Switching of fluorescence mediated by a peroxynitrite-glutathione redox reaction in a porous silicon nanoreactor.
abstract: A nanostructured porous silicon chip functionalized with dichlorofluorescein is employed as a nanoreactor to respond to Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) and to real-time studying redox reactions.
