The dual ECL signal enhancement strategy of Pd nanoparticles attached covalent organic frameworks and exonuclease cycling reaction for the ultrasensitive detection of progesterone.

Nowadays, novel and efficient signal amplification strategy in electrochemiluminescence (ECL) platform is urgently needed to enhance the sensitivity of biosensor. In this work, the dual ECL signal enhancement strategy was constructed by the interactions of Pd nanoparticles attached covalent organic frameworks (Pd NPs@COFs) with tris (bipyridine) ruthenium (RuP) and Exonuclease III (Exo.III) cycle reaction.
