title: An anti-galvanic replacement reaction of DNA templated silver nanoclusters monitored by the light-scattering technique.
abstract: An anti-galvanic replacement reaction (AGRR) of copper(II) ions reduced by ultra-small ssDNA-templated silver nanoclusters forming Ag-Cu alloy nanoparticles was observed. The reaction is against the classic galvanic theory and was monitored sensitively by the light-scattering technique.
