AuNCs capped with β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate exhibit an outstanding performance as ratiometric, fluorescent pH sensors in extremely acid media (0.6–2.7) and in the 7.0–9.2 pH range; the nanocluster itself is the fluorophore.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
