Herein, a pH-sensitive probe has been designed based on DNA modified gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) for Raman/fluorescence dual-imaging of the intracellular pH distribution. In the acidic environment of cancer cells, the configuration change of DNA on the probe surface could turn "on" Raman/fluorescence signals simultaneously.
