Local color : Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) bifunctionalized with a crown ether and thioctic acid can be used for the rapid sensing of a target analyte with the naked eye. A color transformation occurs when the interparticle hydrogen bonds of aggregated GNPs are broken forming a dispersion. For example, the detection of Pb II takes only 1 s (see picture).
