Ag + has been known to mediate several natural metallo-base pairs. Based on the unique structural information of a short 8-mer DNA strand (5'-GCACGCGC-3') induced by Ag + , we constructed several fluorescent DNA beacons for the detection of Ag + according to the increase in the fluorescence emission on Ag + binding. This Ag + detection assay is quick, sensitive, and easy to adapt and can function in a wide range of temperatures from 5 to 65 °C.
