In article number 1900314, Weiling Luan and co‐workers develop a novel strategy to synthesize highly luminescent bovine‐serum‐albumin‐encapsulated gold nanoclusters (BSA‐AuNCs) with a high quantum yield of 23%. When the water‐soluble BSA‐AuNCs enter tumor cells, they can sensitively detect the amount of glutathione present.
