Selective detection of Mg2+ ions via enhanced fluorescence emission using Au–DNA nanocomposites

The biophysical properties of DNA-modified Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) have attracted a great deal of research interest for various applications in biosensing. AuNPs have strong binding capability to the phosphate and sugar groups in DNA, rendering unique physicochemical properties for detection of met...
