Electrogenerated chemiluminescence (also called electrochemiluminescence and abbreviated ECL) has attracted much attention in various fields of analysis due to the potential remarkably high sensitivity, extremely wide dynamic range and excellent controllability. Electrochemiluminescence biosensor, by taking the advantage of the selectivity of the biological recognition elements and the high sensitivity of ECL technique was applied as a powerful analytical device for ultrasensitive detection of biomolecule. In this review, we summarize the latest sensing applications of ECL bioanalysis in the field of bio affinity ECL sensors including aptasensors, immunoassays and DNA analysis, cytosensor, molecularly imprinted sensors, ECL resonance energy transfer and ratiometric biosensors and give future perspectives for new developments in ECL analytical technology. Furthermore, the results herein discussed would demonstrate that the use of nanomaterials with unique chemical and physical properties in the ECL biosensing systems is one of the most interesting research lines for the development of ultrasensitive electrochemiluminescence biosensors. In addition, ECL based sensing assays for clinical samples analysis and medical diagnostics and developing of immunosensors, aptasensors and cytosensor for this purpose is also highlighted.

Luminol is a well-known electrochemiluminescence (ECL) fluorophore that is applied in various sensing fields as an ECL reporter. Regulating the signal off/on transition of an ECL fluorophore offers great opportunities for sensors' design; however, such attempts on luminol are extremely scarce as it was regarded to lack promising modification sites. In this study, we developed four luminol derivatives with modification at the amine site and the enol site and systematically explored possible caging strategies to regulate ECL emission.

The extracellular domain (ECD) of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) serves as a promising biomarker for the early diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer (BC). However, due to the heterogeneity of tumors, assessing HER2 status through a core needle biopsy presents significant challenges. In this study, we propose a facile and high-performance electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLIA) platform utilizing a herceptin-encapsulated gold nanoclusters (HER-AuNCs)/(diisopropylamino)ethanol (DIPEA-OH) ECL system for the clinical evaluation of HER2 ECD in BC patients.

An electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunosensor was developed for the highly sensitive and specific detection of heart-type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) and the rapid diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). H-FABP is a biomarker that is highly specific to cardiac tissue and is associated with a range of cardiac diseases. Following myocardial injury, the rate of increase in H-FABP levels is greater than that observed for myoglobin and troponin.

Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is nowadays a powerful technique widely used in biosensing and imaging, offering high sensitivity and specificity for detecting and mapping biomolecules. Screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) offer a versatile and cost-effective platform for ECL applications due to their ease of fabrication, disposability, and suitability for large-scale production. This research introduces a novel method for improving the ECL characteristics of screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCEs) through the application of CO laser treatment following fabrication.
