Seeking for an advanced electrochemiluminescence (ECL) platform is still an active and continuous theme in the ECL-sensing realm. This work outlines a femtomolar-level and highly selective glutathione (GSH) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) ECL assay strategy using a facile split-type gold nanocluster (AuNC) probe-based ECL platform. The system utilizes GSH as an efficient etching agent to turn on the MnO/AuNC-based ECL nanoswitch platform. This method successfully achieves an ultrasensitive detection of GSH, which significantly outperformed other sensors. Based on the above excellent results, GSH-related biological assays have been further established by taking ATP as a model. Combined with the high catalytic oxidation ability of DNAzyme, this ECL sensor can realize ATP assay as low as 1.4 fmol without other complicated exonuclease amplification strategies. Thus, we successfully achieved an ultrahigh sensitivity, extremely wide dynamic range, great simplicity, and strong anti-interference detection of ATP. In addition, the actual sample detection for GSH and ATP exhibits satisfactory results. We believe that our proposed high-performance platform will provide more possibilities for the detection of other GSH-related substances and show great prospect in disease diagnosis and biochemical research.

Early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) can significantly reduce mortality, which can be achieved by the highly sensitive detection of AMI-specific cardiac troponin I (cTnI) biomarkers. Herein a highly sensitive and portable photoelectrochemical (PEC) immunoassay for the detection of cTnI was innovatively fabricated based on an efficient photocurrent response of CuO coupling with a split-type enzymatic biocatalytic precipitation reaction with a digital multimeter readout. Initially, CuO cubic nanomaterials with a good photocurrent response were obtained by facile green room temperature synthesis and dropped on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) plates as photoactive materials (CuO/FTO).

3D NiO nanoflakes/carbon fiber meshwork: Facile preparation and utilization as general platform for photocathodic bioanalysis.

Herein, we describe a customized approach for facile preparation of three-dimensional (3D) NiO nanoflakes (NFs)/carbon fiber meshwork (CFM) and its validation as a common photocathode matrix for photoelectrochemical (PEC) bioanalysis, which to our knowledge has not been reported. Specifically, 3D NiO NFs/CFM was fabricated by a sequential liquid phase deposition and annealing process, which was then characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectrum, UV-vis absorption spectra and N adsorption-desorption measurement. Sensitized by BiOI and incorporated with an alkaline phosphatase (ALP)/tyrosinase (TYR) bi-enzyme cascade system, a sensitive split-type cathodic PEC bioanalysis for the determination of ALP was achieved.

Article Synopsis
  • A new split-type SERS (Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering) substrate has been developed, featuring a combination of Al2O3@Ag@Si nanocone arrays and Ag nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) for improved sensitivity and stability.
  • The substrate is created by coating a silicon nanocone array with an ultra-thin layer of Al2O3 after ion-sputtering silver, while the Ag-NPs are synthesized separately and later combined for SERS measurement.
  • This innovative design allows the substrate to detect Rhodamine R6G at very low concentrations (1 pM) with a high enhancement factor, maintaining its performance over time due to effective protection against oxidation.
