Title: Induced self-enhanced electrochemiluminescence aptamer sensor for 17β-estradiol detection based on nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots as Ru(dcbpy)32+ coreactant: What role of intermolecular hydrogen bonds play in the system? Author: Liu X, Li L, Luo L, Bi X, Yan H, Li X, You T. Journal: J Colloid Interface Sci; 2021 Mar 15; 586():103-109. PubMed ID: 33160631. Abstract: Herein, an induced self-enhanced electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensor with superior ECL performances was simply fabricated by just dropping the ECL reagent (tris(4,4'-dicarboxylicacid-2,2'-bipyridyl) ruthenium (II) dichloride, Ru(dcbpy)3Cl2) and coreactant (nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots, NCQDs) pair onto the surface of glassy carbon electrode. In this strategy, based on the carboxyl (-COOH) groups in Ru(dcbpy)32+ and oxygen, nitrogen-containing groups on NCQDs surface, an intermolecular hydrogen bonds-induced self-enhanced ECL composite was generated in the solid contact layer for the first time. Since Ru(dcbpy)32+ and NCQDs were co-existing in the same composite, the electron-transfer distance between them was shortened and the energy loss was decreased, thereby higher ECL efficiency was acquired. This working process greatly avoided the introduction of signal amplifier and simplified the experimental operation. On this basis, 17β-estradiol (E2) was selected as a target model to fabricate a self-enhanced ECL aptamer sensor for the investigation of its analytical performances. Resultantly, excellent detection properties of E2, including wider linear range of 1.0 × 10-14 - 1.0 × 10-6 mol L-1 and lower detection limit of 1.0 × 10-15 mol L-1 with superior selectivity, were successfully achieved. Finally, E2 spiked into milk powder was quantified to assess the practicability of this sensor. Prospectively, this strategy could be extensively applied for other analytes determination by adjusting the corresponding target aptamers.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
