Color is everything: Hg 2+ in aqueous media is detected by the formation of thymidine-Hg 2+-thymidine coordination complexes, which raises the melting temperature of the DNA-hybridized gold nanoparticle probes and thus the temperature at which the probes disperse and effect a purple-to-red color change. The method has very high sensitivity and selectivity, and it provides a simple and fast colorimetric readout (see picture).(Figure Presented)
