Abstract
In this work, poly[9,9-dioctylfluorenyl-2,7-diyl] (PFO) dots is discovered to display an appealing dual enhancement effect for the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) system of N-(aminobutyl)-N-(ethylisoluminol)/hydrogen peroxide (ABEI/H2O2), which not only enhances the ECL intensity of ABEI but also catalyzes decomposition of H2O2 to further amplify the ECL signal of ABEI. Owing to the electronegative property of PFO dots, electropositive ABEI-PEI as ECL reagent could be adsorbed on their surface and thus form a novel luminescence emitter (ABEI-PEI-PFO dots) with high ECL efficiency based on electrostatic attraction. Meanwhile, the water solubility and stability of this emitter are improved in virtue of the amine-rich property of ECL reagent (ABEI-PEI), which could increase the luminous efficiency of ECL reaction in aqueous solution. To increase the electron transfer efficiency, Pt nanoparticles (PtNPs) supported on reduced graphene oxide nanosheets (RGOs) via a onepot synthetic strategy are chosen as immobilizing platform for the ECL emitter (ABEI-PEI-PFO dots). Herein, the obtained dual-amplifed ABEI-PEI-PFO dots-RGOs/PtNPs complex is served as an ideal nanocarrier to capture detection antibody (Ab2). According to sandwiched immu...Continue Reading
