Largely due to the high extinction coefficients and distance-dependent optical properties, metallic nanoparticles and quantum dots have been shown to be very attractive in DNA-related colorimetric and fluorescent assays, respectively. We have used DNAzymes (DNA molecules with catalytic activities) ...
