title: Fluorogenic dansyl-ligated gold nanoparticles for the detection of sulfur mustard by displacement assay.
abstract: The dansyl fluorophore ligated to gold nanoparticles via imidazole and amine groups affords conjugates capable of detecting micromolar concentrations of the chemical warfare agent sulfur mustard by a fluorescence switching 'ON' displacement assay.
