Gold‐plated gold: NAD(P)H cofactors mediate the catalytic growth of Au nanoparticles in the presence of AuCl 4 − and CTAB (cetyltrimethylammonium bromide; see picture). The process allows for the optical detection of the cofactors and the analysis of NAD(P) + ‐dependent biocatalyzed transformations in solutions and on surfaces.
