As reported by Munish Chanana, Luis M. Liz‐Marzán, and co‐workers on page 1436 , dual‐responsive gold nanoparticles exhibit fully reversible thermoresponsive and pH‐sensitive optical and physicochemical properties. This occurs due to the pH‐sensitive protein coating grafted with thermosensitive polymer brushes.
