Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) of luminol is a well-established methodology in analytical chemistry and bioimaging. Developing novel strategies to enhance the ECL signal of this model emitter is a challenging but rewarding task. In this work, we introduced the high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), as a pretreatment means and a non-invasive way to trigger and boost the ECL signal with a 40-fold significant enhancement in the luminol-O 2 system without the addition of exogenous co-reactants. The superoxide anion (O 2 −• ) generated in situ by HIFU was the key initiator for boosting the ECL emission as demonstrated in this study for the first time. This promising co-reactant-free strategy could find potential applications for ultrasensitive ECL detection in the analysis of complex biological entities. Graphical abstract

A bipolar electrode electrochemiluminescence (BPE-ECL) with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) host–guest recognition was constructed for the rapid detection of Salmonella typhimurium ( S. typhimurium). Firstly, the sulfhydryl β-CD (SH-β-CD, with inner diameter size: 6.0–6.5 Å) was assembled on the gold-plated cathode of BPE. Ferrocene (Fc, length: 3.5 Å; width: 4.4 Å) labelled signal probe and parts Fc-aptamer complement each other to form a double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). Due to its large size, the dsDNA with a double Fc (width > 8.8 Å) could not be embedded into the cavities of β-CD. In the presence of S. typhimurium, Fc-aptamer bond specifically to S. typhimurium, and the signal probe was shed from the dsDNA. Then, the signal probe (guest) was captured by the SH-β-CD (host) on the surface of the BPE. Due to the principle of spatial matching between Fc and SH-β-CD, a stable inclusion complex could be formed, which made Fc close to the cathode surface of the BPE. When a certain driving voltage was applied, Fc was oxidized to Fc + . The cathode surface of Fc + would promote electron transfer, causing the [Ru(bpy) 3 ] 2+ at the anode emit light, and effectively convert the electrochemical signal into an ECL signal. 10 1 -10 5 CFU mL −1 S. typhimurium was positively correlated with Fc + and ECL intensity, with a detection limit of 10 1 CFU mL −1 . Therefore, S. typhimurium can be quantitatively detected by the electron transfer rate of the BPE.

In this study, we introduce an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensing platform based on the "Entropy-driven triggered T7 amplification-CRISPR/Cas13a system" (EDT-Cas). This platform combines a programmable entropy-driven cycling strategy, T7 RNA polymerase, and the CRISPR/Cas13a system to amplify the determination of the SARS-CoV-2 RdRp gene. The Ti 3 C 2 T x -compliant ECL signaling molecule offers unique benefits when used with the ECL sensing platform to increase the assay sensitivity and the electrode surface modifiability. To obtain the T7 promoter, the SARS-CoV-2 RdRp gene may first initiate an entropy-driven cyclic amplification response. Then, after recognizing the T7 promoter sequence on the newly created dsDNA, T7 RNA polymerase starts transcription, resulting in the production of many single-stranded RNAs (ssRNAs), which in turn trigger the action of CRISPR/Cas13a. Finally, Cas13a/crRNA identifies the transcribed ssRNA. When it cleaves the ssRNA, many DNA reporter probes carrying -U-U- are cleaved on the electrode surface, increasing the ECL signal and allowing for the rapid and highly sensitive detection of SARS-CoV-2. With a detection limit of 7.39 aM, our method enables us to locate the SARS-CoV-2 RdRp gene in clinical samples. The detection method also demonstrates excellent repeatability and stability. The SARS-CoV-2 RdRp gene was discovered using the "Entropy-driven triggered T7 amplification-CRISPR/Cas13a system" (EDT-Cas). The developed ECL test had excellent recoveries in pharyngeal swabs and environmental samples. It is anticipated to offer an early clinical diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 and further control the spread of the pandemic.

The measurement of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) is of vital importance for the early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction. In this study, an enhanced electrochemiluminescent immunoassay for the highly sensitive and precise determination of cTnI was reported. A biomimetic chip with nepenthes peristome surface microstructures to achieve single-layer microbead arrays and integrated microelectrode arrays (MEAs) for ECL detection was microfabricated. Ru@SiO2nanoparticles were prepared as signal amplificators labeling immunomagnetic beads. Dendrimer-encapsulated platinum nanoparticles (Pt DENs) were electrochemically modified on ITO MEAs. The resulting Pt DEN-modified ITO MEAs preserved good optical transparency and exhibited an approximately 20-fold ECL signal amplification compared to that obtained from bare ITO. The method made full use of the biomimetic chip with Pt DENs to develop single-layer immunomagnetic bead arrays with increasingly catalyzed electrochemical oxidation of the [Ru(bpy)3]2+–TPA system. Consequently, a limit of detection calculated as 0.38 pg/mL (S/N = 3) was obtained with excellent selectivity, demonstrating significant potential for the detection of cTnI in clinical diagnostics.

By virtue of the metal organic framework UiO-66-NH 2, an ingenious electrochemiluminescence immunosensor was successfully constructed for subtle exploration of the breast cancer biomarker CA 15-3. In this protocol, Ru(bpy) 3 Cl 2 ·6H 2 O (Ru(bpy) 3 2+ ), as a conventional luminescent reagent, provides a stable and strong luminescent signal. The UiO-66-NH 2 serves as a carrier to provide a large specific surface area for enhancing the electrochemical luminescence signal response of Ru(bpy) 3 2+ . UiO-66-NH 2 , Ru(bpy) 3 2+ are fixed together with Nafion membrane, and CA 15-3 antibody is covalently conjugated onto the membrane through the amide reaction. Ru(bpy) 3 2+ @UiO-66-NH 2 is used as the detection system. The experimental results reveal that the ECL signal decreased obviously after the CA 15-3 antigen molecule is captured on the immunosensor, with the capture of manifesting the principle of electrochemical luminescence quenching detection. Under optimal conditions, the sensor is sensitive and selective for detecting CA 15-3 with the detection range from 5 × 10 −4 to 5 × 10 2 U mL -1 and the low LOD (1.7705 × 10 -5 U mL -1 ). Furthermore, multiple experiments elucidate that the as-prepared sensor could be used for susceptibly detect CA 15-3 in actual samples, which has underlying application prospects in biological analysis.

A highly selective DNA-based electrochemiluminescence (ECL) based biosensor is described for the detection of human IgG. It is exploiting the effect of steric hindrance that affects the strength of the ECL signal in the presence of IgG. Digoxin-linked signaling DNA was specifically bound to IgG, and this causes steric hindrance which limits the ability of DNA to hybridize with capturing DNA attached to a gold electrode. Europium (II) doped CdSe quantum dots were covalently linked to the DNA in order to generate the ECL signal. Using this steric hindrance hybridization method, the ECL signal of the biosensor were proportional to the concentration of IgG with a wide linear range and a 14 pM detection limit. Conceivably, the method can be expanded to the detection of a wide range of proteins for which homologous recognition elements are available.

CRISPR/Cas9 has become a powerful tool for genomic manipulation, and the evaluation of the Cas9 activity is essential for the precise control of the CRISPR system. Herein, we develop a point-of-care platform for the rapid and visible determination of the Cas9 activity. A bipolar electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor platform comprises an Au electric circuit fabricated on a glass substrate and the PDMS layer acts as a reservoir. DNA probes are then modified on electrodes and hybridization chain reaction (HCR) is applied to introduce ferrocene-labeled DNA. The CRISPR/Cas9 system can recognize the immobilized DNA probes and cleave them from the electrode surface as well as the labeled H1 and H2. Therefore, the cleavage activity is closely related to the labeled ferrocene. The modified electrode is then embodied in a closed bipolar system such that the oxidation reaction on sensing poles could be detected by the anodic ECL reactions on isolated luminescent poles due to charge balance, leading to the changes in ECL signals. This portable, integrated and convenient platform may become a meaningful tool for the discovery of a new CRISPR/Cas9 system or additional Cas9 inhibitors.

In this contribution, an ultra-sensitive electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensor was proposed for dopamine (DA) detection based on ruthenium(II) complex (tris(2,2-bipyridyl)dichlororuthenium(II) hexahydrate, Ru(bpy)32+) functionalized Zn(II) metal–organic frameworks (Ru-MOFs). The Ru-MOFs, with large internal surface areas and abundant Ru(bpy)32+ encapsulated effectively, could act as a suitable ECL emitter in a DA detection system. The leakage of Ru molecules in the encapsulation system could be effectively prevented, which resulted in stable ECL signals and significantly improved the ECL performance. On the basis of the novel Ru-MOFs as efficient ECL tags, the as-prepared simple and label-free ECL sensor was employed to quantify dopamine, which showed an excellent linear response from 0.1 pM to 10 nM and a detection limit of 0.024 pM. The simple and sensitive strategy might be expanded to other applications in analysis and detection fields based on functional metal–organic frameworks.

Within this work, an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) aptasensor was constructed for the sensitive detection of diazinon . Primarily, AuNPs not only provided a platform for luminol fixation due to their favorable bioactivity and conductivity , but they facilitated the improvement of ECL signals. Furthermore, three-dimensional (3D) flower-like ZnONPs were obtained by hydrothermal synthesis , which could be an efficacious catalyst for the luminol-hydrogen peroxide (luminol-H 2 O 2 ) system, whereby the ECL signal of the sensor could be amplified. Given the large specific surface area of 3D flower-like ZnONPs, modification of positive charges on their surface could well immobilized the electronegative aptamer chains on the electrode surface , and when diazinon (DZN) was added, the aptamer combined with DZN to form a complex to hinder the ECL intensity, and the detection of DZN was achieved by the change of ECL signal intensity. After evaluated the experimental parameters, the detection limit of DZN was 0.0109 nM (S/N = 3), and the linear range was 0.0328–3.28 × 10 4 nM. The proposed ECL aptasensor had comparatively satisfactory detection limits, which provided a reasonable reference for other contaminant residues detection.

In the present work, we designed a unique enzyme-aided multiple amplification strategy for sensitive electrochemiluminescence (ECL) detection of DNA by using the amplified gold nanoparticles (GNPS)-polyamidoamine (PAMAM)-CdSe quantum dots (QDs) signal probe. Firstly, the novel GNPS-PAMAM dendrimers nanostructure with good biocompatibility and electroconductibility contains many amino groups, which can load a large number of CdSe QDs to develop amplified ECL signal probe. Then, the presence of target DNA activated the enzyme-assisted polymerization strand-displacement cycling reaction, and a large number of the hairpin template was opened. Subsequently, the opened stem further interacted with the capture hairpin (HP) DNA on the electrode, and the GNPS-PAMAM-CdSe signal probe hybridized with the exposed stem of the HP to trigger the second new polymerization reaction . Meanwhile, the first cycle was generating abundant DNA triggers which could directly open the template. As a result of the cascade amplification technique, a large number of CdSe QDs signal probe could be assembled on the electrode, generating much amplified ECL signal for sensitive detection of target DNA. Thus, this novel QDs-based amplified ECL strategy holds great promise for DNA detection and can be further exploited for sensing applications in clinical diagnostics.

A sensitive electrochemiluminescence (ECL) aptasensor based on 3D graphene is described for thrombin detection utilizing nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots doped silica (NGQDs@SiO 2 ) nanocomposite labeling as an enhancer. Ru(bpy) 3 2+ -Pt nanoparticles (Ru-PtNPs) with an ECL signal were dropped onto a 3D graphene-modified electrode, and then, a complementary thrombin aptamer (cDNA) was conjugated to the Ru-PtNPs. Finally, NGQDs@SiO 2 , coupled with the thrombin aptamer as the booster, was attached to the electrode surface by using hybridization with the cDNA, and the ECL intensity was efficiently enhanced. The target thrombin induced the NGQDs@SiO 2 nanocomposites labeled with the thrombin (TB) aptamer to be extracted because of their strong binding with thrombin. The immobilization amount of NGQDs@SiO 2 on the modified electrode decreased. Thus, the presence of thrombin could result in a decrease in the ECL signal. On the basis of the signal amplification factors, the fabricated ECL aptasensor demonstrated excellent properties with concentrations varying from 2.0 pM to 50 nM and a detection limit of 23.1 fM.

A novel electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor based on CdSe@CdS quantum dots (QDs) functionalized MoS2 modified electrode was developed for sensitive detection of Pb(II) using HRP-mimicking DNAzyme biocatalytic precipitation (BCP) for ECL signal quenching. Polycationic poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) and negatively charged QDs were adsorbed on the surface of MoS2, in sequence, to form the MoS2–QDs composites, which were employed as a matrix for the immobilization of the G-rich DNA strand, i.e., T30695. The MoS2–QDs were characterized by UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, energy dispersive spectrometry, transmission electron microscopy, and field emission scanning electron microscopy. CdSe@CdS QDs can produce an ECL signal using 0.1 M K2S2O8 as a co-reactant. T30695 can combine with Pb(II) ions to form a stable parallel G-quadruplex. The G-quadruplex can further combine with hemin to form DNAzyme, which can catalyze H2O2 and oxidize 4-chloro-1-naphthol (4-CN) to produce an insoluble precipitation of benzo-4-chlorohexadienone on the surface of the sensor. When the concentration of Pb(II) in the solution was increased, more of DNAzyme was generated and subsequently more 4-CN molecules were oxidized catalytically, leading to a decrease of the ECL signal. Using this quenching strategy, the ECL signal of the biosensor was linearly dependent on the logarithm of the Pb(II) concentration ranging from 1.0 × 10−15 to 1.0 × 10−11 M with a detection limit of 0.98 f M. The stability and selectivity of the sensor were also investigated. The sensor was applied in the determination of Pb(II) in the real water samples and satisfactory results were obtained.
