RESUMO
In this work, a novel electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensor based on the CdSe@ZnSe and CNTs was constructed for the detection of melamine. CdSe@ZnSe acted as the co-reaction promoter for the enhancement of Ru(bpy)32+/tri-n-propylamine (TPrA) system and CNTs acted as carriers to immobilize more CdSe@ZnSe. The initial ECL signal significantly amplified due to the synergistic effect of CNTs and CdSe@ZnSe. The ECL signal decreased with the addition of melamine, and the change value of ECL intensity (ΔI) was linearly related to the logarithm of melamine concentration. The constructed ECL sensor was able to detect melamine in the range of 1.0â¯×â¯10-11 - 1.0â¯×â¯10-7 M, and the detection limit was 3.3â¯×â¯10-12 M (S/Nâ¯=â¯3). It can be used to detect melamine in milk samples.

This study presents functionalized metal-organic frameworks nanosheets (RuMOFNSs) with strong electrochemiluminescence (ECL) and fluorescence (FL) properties and a novel signal marker-tetraferrocene. Based on the efficient quenching effect of the tetraferrocene on RuMOFNSs, a "signal switch" ECL-FL dual-mode sensor is constructed for sensitive detection of paraquat (PQ). ECL and FL signals are annihilated after adding paraquat-aptamer DNA (PQ-Apt DNA) labeled with tetraferrocene since it is close to RuMOFNSs. PQ is added, and the strong binding and intermolecular interaction between PQ-Apt DNA and PQ induces spatial separation, with tetraferrocene groups far away from RuMOFNSs. At this point, ECL and FL signals are restored. The change in ECL and FL signals realized the quantitative determination of the PQ solution. In addition, the dual-mode sensor exhibits high sensitivity and specificity with detection limits as low as 0.008 ng/mL and 0.059 ng/mL. The proposed sensor is successfully applied to determine PQ, indicating its great application potential in the food industry.

The multi-target simultaneous detection strategy based on potential-resolved electrochemiluminescence (ECL) has still been a research hotspot in analytical science, but the limited selection of ECL luminophores hinders the development of this field. Herein, polyethyleneimine functionalized perylene derivatives (PTC-PEI) and luminol functionalized gold nanoparticles (Lu-Au NPs) possessed significantly resolved emission potentials as ECL luminophore. The ternary ECL system was constructed with MoS2 nanoflowers and K2S2O8 as the coreaction accelerator and coreactant respectively, which significantly improved the cathode ECL emission of PTC-PEI. Simultaneously, the anode coreaction accelerator ZnO nanoflowers could promote the anode coreactant dissolved O2 reduction, and extremely enhanced the anode ECL emission of Lu-Au NPs. The proposed strategy addressed the major technical challenge of cross interference and competition of the coreactants for dual-biomarker detection, thus enabling accurate detection of miRNA-205 and miRNA-21 from 10 fM to 100 nM, with detection limits of 2.57 and 1.15 fM, respectively. In general, this work achieved a single-step synchronous detection of dual biomarkers, providing a new idea for the ECL detection of multiple biomarkers, and having potential value in the clinical diagnosis.

A "signal on" electrogenerated chemiluminescence (electrochemiluminescence, ECL) aptasensor based on proximity ligation-induced an electrode-bound pseudoknot DNA for sensitive detection of gonyautoxin 1/4 (GTX1/4) was developed on basis of the competitive type reaction mode. Aptamer was adopted as recognition element. Ru(bpy)32+ as ECL signal, was attached on the glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface modified with nafion and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) by electrostatic attraction to obtain the ECL platform. The pseudoknot DNA as capture probe, was immobilized onto the ECL platform via Au-S bond to obtain the ECL aptasensor. In the absence of GTX1/4, Y-shape proximate cooperative complex among aptamer, pseudoknot DNA and DNA1 was formed, drawing the ferrocene groups Fc, as ECL quencher) of both pseudoknot DNA and DNA1 near the electrode surface and resulting in low ECL signal. In the presence of GTX1/4, GTX1/4 competed with pseudoknot DNA and DNA1 for aptamer in homogeneous solution, preventing the formation of proximate cooperative complex and keeping the capture DNA in the pseudoknot conformation with Fc groups far away from the electrode surface, generating a high ECL signal. The recovery of ECL intensity increased with the GTX1/4 concentration and allowed the detection of GTX1/4 in the range of 0.01 ng/mL to 10 ng/mL with a detection of limit as low as 6.56 pg/mL. Additionally, the accuracy of this method was validated for analysis of spiked sea water samples with good recoveries, which indicates great potential in commercial application.

A novel electrochemiluminescence (ECL) and electrochemical dual-mode sensor was developed for detecting the activity of beta-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) and screening its inhibitor. Specifically, the adamantane (ADA)-functionalized peptide (P1), a designed substrate peptide for BACE1, was immobilized on the electrode surface via host-guest interaction between ß-cyclodextrin (ß-CD) and ADA. The aggregation of the peptide (P2) and luminol co-functionalized silver nanoparticles could be induced by cucurbit [8]uril (CB[8] due to the ability of CB[8] to accommodate two aromatic residues simultaneously. The obtained (CB[8]-P2-AgNPs-luminol)n aggregates with both ECL and electrochemical activity, used as the dual-mode signal probe, could be captured to the N-terminal of P1 through CB[8]. Once the substrate P1 was cleaved by BACE1, the probe-binding polypeptide fragment detached from the electrode surface, resulting in a remarkable decrease in the ECL and electrochemical signals. Taking advantage of the signal amplification function of the signal probe, the sensitive dual-mode assay for BACE1 activity can be achieved with the low detection limits of 33.11 pM for ECL and 53.19 pM for electrochemical mode. The superior analytical performance of this novel dual-mode sensor toward BACE1 activity suggested the promising application in early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Although luminescence metal organic framework (MOFs) has displayed the significant advantages, the limitations in the electrochemical performance (e.g. rapid charge recombination rates and inadequate charge transport) limited the sensing application of MOFs. Herein, a novel Cu-MOFs/BiVO4 nanorod-based electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) sensor has been developed. Firstly, Cu-MOFs with strong luminescence were synthesized via the three-layer approach as ECL emitter. Furthermore, BiVO4 nanorods was modified on the electrode as the actuator to improve the electrochemical activity of Cu-MOFs in the ECL process. As an n-type semiconductor, BiVO4 formed a complementary structure with p-type semiconductor Cu-MOF. Therefore, electrons in the conduction band of BiVO4 transferred to that of Cu-MOF. As a result, more electrons reacted with coreactant on the surface of Cu-MOF, which effectively enhanced the ECL performance of 2D Cu-MOFs nanosheets. As a result, the quantitation of KRAS gene was realized in the linear range of 0.1 pM-1 nM with a detection limit of 0.02 fM. Moreover, the detection of KRAS gene in actual colorectal cancer samples was also carried out with good recovery, which offered a broad application possibility for ECL research and clinical analysis.

Herein, a self on electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor was constructed by pH stimuli response controlled release strategy, in which SiO2-PEI as the carrier, BSA/luminol-Ab2 as the encapsulated substance, gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) as the blocking cap, glucose as the inducer. In addition, CeO2-Au was used as catalyst, which generated more O2â¢- to increase the ECL signal. Under the action of voltage, the glucose was oxidized to gluconic acid, which induced the pH to decrease accordingly. Therefore, Au NPs were stimulated to fall from the surface of SiO2-PEI, releasing the BSA/luminol-Ab2 to realize self on mode. With such design, the constructed self on ECL biosensor owned an ultrasensitive detection capacity of CYFRA 21-1, showing an excellent linear relationship in the range of 0.001-100000 ng/L and 0.4 fg/mL low limit of detection (LOD). It provided an innovative idea for the biosensor construction to clinical detection of lung cancer.

Most of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are non or weakly emissive due to either the molecular thermal motion-mediated energy dissipation or the aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) effect. Herein, we synthesize an imine-linked COF (TFPPy-TPh-COF) with high electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emission and the capability of eliminating the ACQ effect and further construct an ECL sensor for malathion detection. The imine-linked COF is obtained by the condensation reaction of (1,1':3',1â³-terphenyl)-4,4â³-diamine (TPh) and 1,3,6,8-tetrakis(p-formylphenyl)pyrene (TFPPy), and it has higher ECL efficiency than TFPPy aggregates due to the separation of ACQ luminophores (i.e., TFPPy) from each other by TPh and the restriction of intramolecular motions of TFPPy and TPh to reduce the nonradiative decay. The efficient quenching of ECL is achieved by electrochemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (ERET) from the excited state of the TFPPy-TPh-COF to zeolite imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) and the steric hindrance of ZIF-8. Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) can enzymatically hydrolyze acetylcholine (ACh) to generate acetic acid. The resultant acetic acid can trigger the dissolution of ZIF-8 to produce an enhanced ECL signal. Malathion as an organophosphorus pesticide serves as an AChE inhibitor to prevent the production of acetic acid, inducing the decrease of ECL signal. This sensor displays a limit of detection (LOD) of 2.44 pg/mL and a wide dynamic detection range of 0.01-1000 ng/mL. Furthermore, it can be used to detect other organophosphates pesticides (e.g., methidathion, chlorpyrifos, and paraoxon) and measure malathion in real samples (i.e., pakchoi, lettuce, and apples).

The chemiluminescence (CL) methods unlike the other methods of determining free radicals (FR) allow investigating the kinetics of the derivation and recombination of radicals/antioxidants, and thus the development and attenuation of the process/processes after excitation in time. However, these methods are of limited application because the knowledge of the explored parameters is insufficient (maximum intensity and integrated area under the kinetics plot). The kinetics is studied by the CL methods and a new parameter (IR-criterion) of analysis of damping of the initiated CL dynamics has been introduced. The IR-criterion parameter: identifies the relationship between the rates of initiation and recombination of peroxide radicals in blood-serum samples; allows the full straightening of the CL curves; provides new information in the considered pathological processes; can serve as an additional universal characteristic of FR activity of blood serum in pathological processes.

The efficiency of aggregation-induced electrochemiluminescence (AIECL) in tetraphenylethene (TPE) derivatives were significantly enhanced by combining the regulation of molecular structure and solvent. Firstly, the linear increase of the benzene ring resulted in enhanced molecular aggregation and promoted the electrochemical reaction of the anode, due to increased molecular conjugation and higher lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) and highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO). The ECL efficiency of 4,4,4,4-(Ethene-1,1,2,2-tetrayl) tetrakis (([1,1,4,1-terphenyl]-4-carbaldehyde)) (T3) nanoparticles (NPs) with more benzene rings were 5558 times that of 4,4,4,4-(ethene-1,1,2,2-tetrayl) tetrabenzaldehyde (T1) NPs, and its relative ECL efficiency of T3 NPs reached 55.58% compared to the [Ru (bpy)3]2+/tripropylamine (TPrA) system. Furthermore, solvents with different polarities played a crucial role in modulating the degree of molecular aggregation, which also effectively facilitated the AIE process and reduced the aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) effect caused by excessively dense aggregation. This aspect had often been overlooked in previous AIECL studies. T3 NPs demonstrated optimal ECL performance at fw = 70% (fw was the H2O content in tetrahydrofuran (THF)/H2O), and its ECL efficiency was 232 times greater than fw = 100% and 1853 times greater than fw = 0%. Additionally, it was found that melatonin (MT), one of the hormones widely used to treat insomnia, exhibited antioxidant and free radical scavenging properties, which exerted a significant quenching effect on the ECL of the T3 NPs/TPrA system. Consequently, a sensitive sensing platform was developed for MT with a low detection limit of 8.78 × 10-10 mol L-1, which promoted the application of AIECL in efficient ultra-sensitive biosensing.

Manufacturing electrochemiluminescence (ECL) electrodes to detect analytes with high performance in the aqueous phase for water-insoluble metal complexes is a great challenge. Here, a directional self-assembling avenue for in situ fabricating iridium(III)-polyimine complex-encapsulated metal-organic framework (MOF) two-dimensional electrode Hf-MOF/Ir2PD/APS/ITO is developed. The electrode displayed bright red ECL emission with high stability in the aqueous phase and specific adsorption toward ssDNA against dsDNA and mNs. That is to say, a "high-performance and multifunctional ECL electrode" is presented and explored for sensitive detection of acetamiprid (Ace) with a limit of detection of 0.0025 nM, where Ace-aptamer recognition-switched Exonuclease III-mediated digestion to make large numbers of Fc-labeled ssDNA transform into Fc-mNs. Furthermore, the proposed method was triumphantly employed to monitor the change in the residual concentration of Ace in pakchoi. This work breaks through the bottleneck of metal complex-based ECL emission in organic solvents and provides a novel strategy to develop high-performance ECL sensors.

When consumed, excess progesterone (P4)âfound in food and the environmentâcan lead to severe illnesses in humans. Therefore, quantitative analysis of P4 is critical for identifying its hazardous levels. In this study, a novel signal "on-amplified-off" P4 detection mode was proposed, which was based on the utilization of hafnium oxide (HfO2) as a unique electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emitter, produced by calcining UiO-66(Hf). This is the first time that HfO2 has been used as an ECL emitter. HfO2 displayed excellent conductivity and a high specific surface area, allowing it to connect with numerous aptamers and produce a "signal-on" effect. Ni-doped ZnO (Ni-ZnO) acted as a coreaction accelerator, enhancing the ECL strength of HfO2 by generating more tripropylamine radicals. cDNA was labeled with Ni-ZnO, and Ni-ZnO was linked to the aptamer via base complementary pairing, affording "signal-amplified". The presence of the target molecule P4 instigated a specific binding process with the aptamer, triggering the shedding of cDNA-Ni-ZnO and resulting in "signal-off". This novel "on-amplified-off" strategy effectively improved the sensitivity and specificity of P4 analysis, introducing a practical method for detecting biomolecules beyond the scope of this study, which holds immense potential for future applications.

Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are increasingly recognized for their roles in functional cellular networks and their importance in disease-targeting contexts. Assessing PPI in the native cellular environment is challenging and requires specific and quantitative methods. Bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) is a biophysical process that can be used to quantify PPI. With Nanoluciferase bioluminescent protein as a donor and a fluorescent chloroalkane ligand covalently bound to HaloTag protein as an acceptor, NanoBRET provides a versatile and robust system to quantitatively measure PPI in living cells. BRET efficiency is proportional to the distance between the donor and acceptor, allowing for the measurement of PPI in real time. In this paper, we describe the use of NanoBRET to study specific interactions between proteins of interest in living cells that can be perturbed by using small-molecule antagonists and genetic mutations. Here, we provide a detailed protocol for expressing NanoLuc and HaloTag fusion proteins in cell culture and the necessary optimization of NanoBRET assay conditions. Our example results demonstrate the reliability and sensitivity of NanoBRET for measuring interactions between proteins, protein domains, and short peptides and quantitating the PPI antagonist compound activity in living cells.

Bioluminescent resonance energy transfer (BRET) is a natural phenomenon resulting from a non-radiative energy transfer between a bioluminescent donor (Renilla luciferase) and a fluorescent protein acceptor. BRET signal is dependent on the distance and the orientation between the donor and the acceptor and could be used to study protein-protein interactions and conformational changes within proteins at real-time in living cells. This protocol describes the use of BRET technique to study NLRP3 oligomerization in living cells before and during NLRP3 inflammasome activation.

Recently, our group reported a chemical timer approach to manipulate the onset time of chemiluminescence (CL) emission. However, it is still in the proof-of-concept stage, and its analytical applications have not been explored yet. Nanomaterials have merits of good catalytic effect, large specific surface area, good biocompatibility, and ease of self-assembly, which are ideal for constructing analytical-interfaces for bioassays. Herein, an emission onset time-adjustable chemiluminescent L012-Au/Mn2+ was synthesized for the first time by modifying Mn2+ on the surface of L012-protected gold nanoparticle. By using H2O2 and NaHCO3 as coreactants, L012-Au/Mn2+ could not only generate an ultrastrong and long-time CL emission but also its CL emission onset time could be adjusted by the addition of thiourea, which could effectively eliminate interference from the addition of coreactants, shorten the exposure time, reduce the detection background, and finally achieve high sensitivity CL imaging analysis. On this basis, a label-free CL immunoassay was constructed with a smartphone-based imaging system for high-throughput and sensitive determination of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 nucleocapsid (N) protein. The CL image of the immunoassay with different concentrations of N proteins was captured in one photograph 100 s after the injection of H2O2 with a short exposure time of 0.5 s. The immunoassay showed good linearity over the concentration range of 1 pg/mL to 10 ng/mL with a detection limit of 0.13 pg/mL, which was much lower than the reported CCD imaging detection method. In addition, it showed good selectivity and stability and was successfully applied in serum samples from healthy individuals and COVID-19 rehabilitation patients.

Herein, a multifunctional electrochemiluminescence (ECL) and photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensor based on exchange of Ag+ with CdTe QDs was developed for dual-mode detection of thrombin. First, CdTe QDs assembled on an electrode displayed superior ECL and PEC signals. At the same time, C-rich hairpin (HP) DNA linked to silicon spheres loaded a large amount of Ag+, and the specific binding of thrombin to an aptamer led to the release of DNA P; then, DNA P interacted with HP DNA to produce numerous Ag+ ions by an enzyme-digestion amplification reaction. Ag+ underwent ion exchange with CdTe QDs to generate AgTe/CdTe QDs, resulting in much reversed PEC and changed ECL signals for dual-mode detection of thrombin. This work takes advantage of outstanding multi-signals of QDs coupled with convenient ion exchange to achieve multi-mode detection of the target, avoiding false positive or false negative signals generated in the traditional detection process, and thus can be used for the rapid detection of various biomolecules in actual samples.

The construction of advanced systems capable of accurately detecting neuron-specific enolase (NSE) is essential for rapidly diagnosing small-cell lung cancer. In this study, an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) resonance energy transfer immunosensor was proposed for the ultra-sensitive detection of NSE. The co-reactants C2O42- and Ru(bpy)32+ were integrated to form a self-enhanced ECL luminophore (Ru-ZnMOF) as the ECL donor. The abundant carboxyl functional groups of Ru-ZnMOF supported antibody 1 via an amidation reaction. Polydopamine-modified zinc dioxide nanoflowers, as ECL acceptors, inhibited Ru-ZnMOF ECL signaling. The linear range of NSE was 10 fg mL-1 to 100 ng mL-1 with a detection limit of 3.3 fg mL-1 (S/N = 3), which is suitably low for determining NSE in real samples.

Okadaic acid (OA), a marine biotoxin produced by microalgae, poses a significant threat to mariculture, seafood safety, and human health. The establishment of a novel, highly sensitive detection method for OA would have significant practical and scientific implications. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to develop an innovative approach for OA detection. A competitive amplified luminescent proximity homogeneous assay (AlphaLISA) was developed using the principle of specific antigen-antibody binding based on the energy transfer between chemiluminescent microspheres. The method was non-washable, sensitive, and rapid, which could detect 2 × 10-2-200 ng/mL of OA within 15 min, and the detection limit was 4.55 × 10-3 ng/mL. The average intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variation were 2.54% and 6.26%, respectively. Detection of the actual sample results exhibited a good correlation with high-performance liquid chromatography. In conclusion, a simple, rapid, sensitive, and accurate AlphaLISA method was established for detecting OA and is expected to significantly contribute to marine biotoxin research.

A new electrochemiluminescence (ECL) cytosensor is proposed for the simultaneous determination of phosphatidylserine (PS) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) based on the ECL signals of metal-organic framework-5 (MOF-5) loaded CdS quantum dots and N-(aminobutyl)-N-(ethylisoluminol)-polyethylenimine capped Au and Ag nanoparticles. Apoptosis promotes the exposure of PS and reduces the expression of EGFR in cell membranes. Two spatially resolved areas on dual-disk glassy carbon electrodes were designed to eliminate the interference from different ECL probes. Using HepG2 cells treated with resveratrol to induce apoptosis, the cytosensor exhibited high sensitivity, simplicity, and high reproducibility, demonstrating its potential in drug screening and rapid apoptotic cell detection. The strategy reported provides a promising platform for the highly sensitive cytosensing and convenient screening of clinically relevant anticancer drugs.

Bioaerosol detection technology represented by laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) cannot effectively detect bioaerosols in the presence of interferents such as plant-derived smoke, industrial waste gas, pollen and pollen debris which can produce strong non-biological fluorescence interference. To overcome this drawback, in this study, a novel method based on broad-spectrum high-efficiency magnetic enrichment and separation combined with adenosine triphosphate (ATP) bioluminescence was proposed for Escherichia coli (E. coli) bioaerosols rapid detection. First, E. coli bioaerosols mixed with interferents were collected. Core-shell Fe3O4@Polydopamine@Polyethyleneimine magnetic particles were used as bioaerosol enrichment materials to enrich E. coli bioaerosol sampling solutions. Subsequently, an ATP bioluminescence assay was performed to determine the concentration of E. coli. A linear relationship was observed between ATP bioluminescence intensity after enrichment and the E. coli bioaerosol concentration in the range of 870-49,098 particles per liter; the bioluminescence intensity measured after enrichment was significantly higher than that before enrichment, and this enrichment method provide a 6-fold better sensitivity in bioaerosol detection. More importantly, this method efficiently enriched and detected bioaerosols in plant-derived smoke. This method can effectively improve the sensitivity of ATP bioluminescence detection, and possesses the advantages of convenient operation and strong anti-interference ability. It also provides a foundation for the effective detection of bioaerosols mixed with interfering substances, and a reference for evaluating the sensitivity and anti-interference of LIF-based instruments.
