Electrophoresis-driven AIE luminogens encapsulated within silica isoporous membrane for acid vapor sensing.

Acid vapors emitted by chemical industries pose an increasing threat to public health. The development of a cost-effective sensor for the on-site and real-time monitoring of environmental acid vapor is of great significance. Aggregation-induced emission (AIE) luminogens overcome the aggregation-caused quenching effect and exhibit intense fluorescence when supported in the solid matrices.

Electrophoretic deposition of Ru(bpy) in vertically-ordered silica nanochannels: A solid-state electrochemiluminescence sensor for prolidase assay.

Prolidase (PLD) plays a crucial role as a dipeptidase in various physiological processes, specifically involved in the cleavage of proline-containing dipeptides for efficient recycling of proline. The accurate determination of PLD activity holds significant importance in clinical diagnosis. Herein, a solid-state electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor was developed to address the urgent need for PLD assay.
