Cytosine-rich ssDNA-templated fluorescent silver and copper/silver nanoclusters: optical properties and sensitive detection for mercury(II).

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
DNA-templated silver nanoclusters (DNA-Ag NCs) with cytosine (C)-rich sequences (four or more segments of consecutive (2-5) C-bases) were synthesized. They display green and/or orange/red emissions under different excitation wavelengths. There is indication that more consecutive C-bases lead to longer emission wavelengths. The ratio of the red and green emissions of the DNA-Ag NCs depends on whether the NCs were synthesized under acidic or basic conditions. We also prepared the DNA copper/silver nanoclusters (DNA-Cu/Ag NCs) which can be synthesized in shorter time and display higher stability. The DNA-Cu/Ag NCs, under 470 nm photoexcitation, always display green emission, with a peak at 550 nm, irrespective of whether being prepared under acidic or basic conditions. The fluorescence of the Cu/Ag NCs is selectively quenched by Hg(II) ions which can be quantified by this nanoprobe with a detection limit as low as 2.4 nM. The quenching mechanism was studied by Stern-Volmer plots and lifetime studies which revealed that both static and dynamic quenching are operative.
