    Abstract:
    Metal organic gels (MOGs) are a new kind of intelligent soft materials with excellent luminescence properties. However, MOGs with dual electrochemiluminescence (ECL) properties have not been reported. In this study, using Eu3+ as metal node, 4'-(4-carboxyphenyl)-2,2':6',2″-terpyridine (Hcptpy) and Luminol as organic ligands, a novel dual-ligand Europium-organic gels (Eu-L-H MOGs) were prepared by simple mixing at room temperature. On the one hand, Eu-L-H MOGs could exhibit strong and stable anodic ECL signals in the phosphate buffered saline (PBS) without the addition of co-reactants, which came from the blue emission of Luminol. On the other hand, using K2S2O8 as a cathodic co-reactant, Eu-L-H MOGs produced cathodic signals, which were derived from the red emission of Eu sensitized by Hcptpy through the antenna effect. Based on the independent dual ECL signals of Eu-L-H MOGs, we selected Alexa Flour 430 as the receptor and anodic ECL emission of Eu-L-H MOGs as the donor to construct the ECL resonance energy transfer (ECL-RET) ratio biosensor, which utilized exonuclease III assisted DNA cycle amplification to achieve ultrasensitive detection of the I27L gene. The detection linearity of I27L ranged from 1 fM to 10 nM, with a detection limit as low as 284 aM. This study developed a straightforward technique for obtaining a single luminescent material with dual signals, and further broadened the analytical application of MOGs in the realm of ECL.
