Abstract
Precise manipulation of the coordination configuration within substances can modulate the band structure and catalytic properties of the target material. Metal-covalent organic frameworks (MCOFs), a crystal material amalgamating the benefits of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs), can integrate a predetermined coordination environment into the frameworks for amplifying the catalytic effect. In this study, we delicately synthesize isomeric MCOFs using bis(glycinato)copper as the aminoligand via kinetically and thermodynamically favorable pathways to yield cis-MCOF and trans-MCOF products, respectively, thereby introducing a cis-trans isomeric coordination field into the framework. Moreover, the twisted skeleton derived from the flexibility of amino acid and β-ketoenamine linkages endows trans-MCOF with surprising water dispersibility. Compared to cis-MCOF, the trans isomerism displays a significant enhancement in cathodic electrochemiluminescence via the catalysis of Cu nodes toward K2S2O8. The density of states analysis shows that the d-band center of trans-MCOF is closer to the Fermi level, leading to more stable adsorption binding to promote the catalysis. This study is the first report on constructing predesign coordination configuration MCOFs via an easy-handling method, which gives the guidelines for the design of amino acid-based MCOF materials.

Abstract
Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is a luminescence production technique triggered by electrochemistry, which has emerged as a powerful analytical technique in bioanalysis and clinical diagnosis. During ECL, charge transfer (CT) is an important process between electrochemical excitation and luminescent emission, and dramatically affects the efficiency of exciton generation, playing a pivotal role in the light-emitting properties of nanomaterials. Reticular framework materials with intramolecular/intermolecular interactions offer a promising platform for regulating CT pathways and enhancing luminescence efficiency. Deciphering the role of intramolecular/intermolecular CT processes in reticular framework materials allows for the targeted design and synthesis of emitters with precisely controlled CT properties. This sheds light on the microscopic mechanisms of electro-optical conversion in ECL, propelling advancements in their efficiency and breakthrough applications. This mini-review focuses on recent advancements in engineering CT within reticular frameworks to boost ECL efficiency. We summarized strategies including intra-reticular charge transfer, CT between the metal and ligands, and CT between guest molecules and frameworks within reticular frameworks, which holds promise for developing next-generation ECL devices with enhanced sensitivity and light emission.

Abstract
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are excellent alternative luminophores for electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunoassays. However, they are inevitably limited by the aggregation-caused quenching effect. In this study, aimed at eliminating the aggregation quenching of PAHs, luminescent metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with 1,3,6,8-tetra(4-carboxybenzene)pyrene (H4TBAPy) as the ligand were exploited as a novel nano-emitter for the construction of ECL immunoassays. The luminophore exhibits efficient aggregation-induced emission enhancement, good acid-base resistance property and unusual ECL reactivity. In addition, the simultaneous use of potassium persulfate and hydrogen peroxide as dual co-reactants resulted in a synergistic enhancement of the cathodic ECL efficiency. The use of magnetic iron-nickel alloys as the multifunctional sensing platform can further enhance the ECL activity, and its enriched zero-valent iron as a co-reactant accelerator effectively drives ECL analytical performance. Profiting from the excellent characteristics, signal-on ECL immunoassays have been constructed. With carcinoembryonic antigen as the model analysis target, a detection limit of 0.63 pg/mL was obtained within the linear range of 1 pg/mL to 50 ng/mL, accompanied by excellent analytical performance. This report opens a new window for the rational design of efficient ECL illuminators, and the proposed ECL immunoassays may find promising applications in the detection of disease markers.

Abstract
The improvement of electrochemiluminescence (ECL) performance relies on the electron transfer efficiency between luminophore and coreactant. An ultrasensitive ECL micro-reactor with confinement-enhanced performance was prepared by using the covalent organic framework-LZU1-functionalized metal-organic framework (MOF@COF-LZU1) as a platform to assemble enormous N,N-dibutyl-2-hydroxyethylamine (DBAE) and tris(4,4'-dicarboxylic acid-2,2'-bipyridyl) ruthenium(II) [Ru(dcbpy)32+] into its pore channels. Compared to individual substances of γ-CD-MOF and COF-LZU1, the synergistic effects can conduce to the enhancement of the intensity, durability and sensitivity of the micro-reactor. Besides, COF-LZU1 can provide a mild environment to accommodate a certain amount of DBAE by concentrating them from the aqueous solution into its hydrophobic cavities and boost the oxidation efficiency of DBAE to generate more DBAE●+ and profited the survival of DBAE●, leading to an improved reaction efficiency with the Ru(dcbpy)32+ intermediate. Thanks to the confinement-enhanced strategy, engineered as high-functioning luminescent materials, Ru@γ-CD-MOF@COF-LZU1 micro-reactors decorated with Au NPs can facilitate electron transfer and capture primary antibodies (Ab1). Moreover, Au-Pd-Pt noble metal aerogels (NMAs) functionalized MoS2 NFs (Au-Pd-Pt NMAs@MoS2 NFs) were chosen as base material due to its large specific surface areas, high porosity, and excellent electrical conductivity. Based on above merits, the sensor demonstrated a sensitive response to CYFRA 21-1 detection in a linear concentration gradient from 10 fg/mL to 50 ng/mL with a detection limit of 0.0055 pg/mL (S/N = 3). The COF-LZU1 decorated ECL micro-reactors were constructed based on the signal amplification strategies to realize accurate CYFRA 21-1 detection.

Abstract
Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) as an analytical technology with a perfect combination of electrochemistry and spectroscopy has received considerable attention in bioanalysis due to its high sensitivity and broad dynamic range. Given the selectivity of bio-recognition elements and the high sensitivity of the ECL analysis technique, ECL biosensors are powerful platforms for the sensitive detection of biomarkers, achieving the accurate prognosis and diagnosis of diseases. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are crucial biomarkers involved in a variety of physiological and pathological processes, whose aberrant expression is often related to serious diseases, especially cancers. ECL biosensors can fulfill the highly sensitive and selective requirements for accurate miRNA detection, prompting this review. The ECL mechanisms are initially introduced and subsequently categorize the ECL biosensors for miRNA detection in terms of the quenching agents. Furthermore, the work highlights the signal amplification strategies for enhancing ECL signal to improve the sensitivity of miRNA detection and finally concludes by looking at the challenges and opportunities in ECL biosensors for miRNA detection.

Rigidifying AIEgens in covalent organic framework nanosheets for electrochemiluminescence enhancement: TABE-PZ-CON as a novel emitter for microRNA-21 detection. Anal Chim Acta 2024; 1295:342321.

Abstract
Enhancing electrochemiluminescence (ECL) properties of luminophores is a hot direction in the current ECL field. Herein, we found that covalent rigidification of the aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens) TABE (TABE = tetra-(4-aldehyde-(1,1-biphenyl))ethylene) into covalent organic framework nanosheets (TABE-PZ-CON, PZ = piperazine) could result in stronger ECL emission than those of TABE aggregates and TABE monomers. We termed the interesting phenomenon "covalent rigidification-triggered electrochemiluminescence (CRT-ECL) enhancement". The superior ECL performance of TABE-PZ-CON not only because massive TABE luminogens were covalently assembled into the rigid TABE-PZ-CON network, which limited the intramolecular motions of TABE and hampered the radiationless transition, but also because the ultrathin porous TABE-PZ-CON significantly reduced the transportation distance of ions, electrons, and coreactants, which enabled the electrochemical excitation of more TABE luminogens and thus enhanced the ECL efficiency. Bearing in mind the exceptional ECL performance of TABE-PZ-CON, it was utilized as a high-efficient ECL indicator in combination with the DNA walker and duplex-specific nuclease-assisted target recycling amplification strategies to design an "off-on" ECL biosensor for the ultrasensitive assay of microRNA-21, exhibiting a favorable response range (100 aM-1 nM) with an ultralow detection limit of 17.9 aM. Overall, this work offers a valid way to inhibit the intramolecular motions of AIEgens for ECL enhancement, which gives a new vision for building high-performance AIEgen-based ECL materials, thus offering more chances for assembling hypersensitive ECL biosensors.

Abstract
Nitroaromatic compounds in aqueous undermine environmental sustainability and affect human health. The development of a fluorescent sensor capable of efficiently and selectively detecting trace amounts of nitroaromatic compounds presents a considerable challenge. This study introduced Zn/Cd isomeric coordination polymers (Zn-H2CIA-1/Cd-H2CIA-2), which are synthesized using 5-((4-carboxybenzyl)oxy)isophthalic acid (5-H3CIA) and 1,10-phenanthroline (Phen). The polymers have zero-dimensional discrete crystal structure with a six-coordinated scissor-like shape. The two coordination polymers can be used as fluorescent sensors for detecting nitrobenzene (NB) and demonstrated favorable sensitivity, with detection limits of 1.95 × 10-8 and 4.66 × 10-7 mol/L, respectively. Zn-H2CIA-1 exhibited stronger fluorescence and a more sensitive response to NB compared with Cd-H2CIA-2. To elucidate their fluorescence-quenching mechanisms, we analyzed Zn-H2CIA-1 by performing DFT and TD-DFT calculations. The pore structure, density of states, excitation energy, hole-electron distribution, and orbital composition were analyzed. The suitable size of pores in Zn-H2CIA-1 is the main reason for its high NB selectivity. Moreover, intermolecular π-π stacking interactions result in an orbital overlap between Zn-H2CIA-1 and NB, enabling the transfer of electrons from Zn-H2CIA-1 to NB. This electron transfer is identified as the fundamental cause of fluorescence quenching in Zn-H2CIA-1.

Abstract
The development of highly sensitive and selective analytical approaches for monitoring enzymatic activity is critical for disease diagnosis and biomedical research. Herein, we develop an exogenous co-reactant-free electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor for the ratiometric measurement of α-glucosidase (α-Glu) based on a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-67)-regulated pyrene-based hydrogen-bonded organic framework (HOF-101). Target α-Glu can hydrolyze maltose to α-d-glucose, which can subsequently react with GOx to produce gluconic acid. The resultant gluconic acid can dissolve ZIF-67, leading to the recovery of the HOF-101 cathodic ECL signal and the decrease of the luminol anodic ECL signal. The long-range ordered structure of HOF-101 can speed up charge transfer, resulting in a stable and strong cathodic ECL signal. Moreover, ZIF-67 can not only efficiently quench the ECL signal of HOF-101 due to ECL resonance energy transfer between HOF-101 and ZIF-67 as well as the steric hindrance effect of ZIF-67 but also enhance the anodic ECL emission of luminol in dissolved O2 system because of its ordered and porous crystalline structure and the atomically dispersed Co2+. Notably, HOF-101 possesses a higher ECL efficiency (32.22%) compared with the Ru(bpy)32+ standard. Importantly, this ratiometric ECL biosensor shows high sensitivity (a detection limit of 0.19 U L-1) and a broad linear range (0.2-50 U L-1). This biosensor can efficiently eliminate systematic errors and enhance detection reliability without the involvement of exogenous co-reactants, and it displays good assay performance in human serum samples, holding great promise in biomedical research studies.

Abstract
Herein, pyrenecarboxaldehyde@graphene oxide (Pyc@GO) sheets with highly efficient electrochemiluminescence (ECL) as emitters were prepared by a noncovalent combination to develop a neoteric ECL biosensing platform for the ultrasensitive assessment of human apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease1 (APE1) activity. Impressively, the pyrenecarboxaldehyde (Pyc) molecules were able to form stable polar functional groups on the surface of GO sheets through the noncovalent π-π stacking mechanism to prevent intermolecular restacking and simultaneously generate Pyc@GO sheets. Compared with the tightly packed PAH nanocrystals, the Pyc@GO sheets significantly reduced internal filtering effects and diminished nonactivated emitters to enhance ECL intensity and achieve strong ECL emission. Furthermore, the APE1-activated initiators could trigger the recyclable cascade amplified system based on the synergistic cross-activation between catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) and DNAzyme, which improved the signal amplification and transduction ability. Consequently, the developed ECL platform for the detection of APE1 activity displayed exceptional sensitivity with a low detection limit of 4.6 × 10-9 U·mL-1 ranging from 10-8 to 10-2 U·mL-1. Therefore, the proposed strategy holds great promise for the future development of sensitive and reliable biosensing platforms for the detection of various biomarkers.

Abstract
Cancer antigen 125 (CA125) is a typical tumor marker of ovarian cancer. Here, a multi-amplified electrochemiluminescence (ECL) aptasensor was developed for efficient recognition of CA125 using tetrahedral DNA nanostructure (TDN) enhanced toehold-mediated strand displacement (TMSD) coupled with gold nanoparticles/Ru(bpy)32+/metal-organic framework (AuNPs/Ru/ZIF-MOF) signal probe. AuNPs and Ru(bpy)32+ modified ZIF-MOF acted as initial ECL signal and further used for the immobilization of TDN, the activated DNA templates on the surface of TDN were firstly hybridized with ferrocene labeled DNA probe (S6) and S5, in which, S6 acted as the energy acceptor of ECL signal from Ru(bpy)32+, making the sensor in a "signal-off" state. After the specific recognition of aptamer (AP) with CA125, DNA initiator (S7) was freed to induce the happen of TMSD by using S8 as the helper DNA, accompanying with the release of S6 from the electrode surface and the recovery of Ru(bpy)32+ ECL signal, making the sensor in a "signal-on" state. Then, S7 was recycled for the next TMSD, making the sensor highly sensitive with a detection limit of 6 × 10-3 pg/mL. Moreover, the proposed aptasensor achieved high performance for CA125 detection in human serum samples, illustrating the reliability of the sensor in clinical analysis.

Abstract
To detect a range of trace biomarkers associated with human diseases, researchers have been focusing on developing biosensors that possess high sensitivity and specificity. Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensors have emerged as a prominent research tool in recent years, owing to their potential superiority in low background signal, high sensitivity, straightforward instrumentation, and ease of operation. Functional nanomaterials (FNMs) exhibit distinct advantages in optimizing electrical conductivity, increasing reaction rate, and expanding specific surface area due to their small size effect, quantum size effect, and surface and interface effects, which can significantly improve the stability, reproducibility, and sensitivity of the biosensors. Thereby, various nanomaterials (NMs) with excellent properties have been developed to construct efficient ECL biosensors. This review provides a detailed summary and discussion of FNMs-based ECL biosensors and their applications in cancer biomarkers detection.

Abstract
Most of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are non or weakly emissive due to either the molecular thermal motion-mediated energy dissipation or the aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) effect. Herein, we synthesize an imine-linked COF (TFPPy-TPh-COF) with high electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emission and the capability of eliminating the ACQ effect and further construct an ECL sensor for malathion detection. The imine-linked COF is obtained by the condensation reaction of (1,1':3',1″-terphenyl)-4,4″-diamine (TPh) and 1,3,6,8-tetrakis(p-formylphenyl)pyrene (TFPPy), and it has higher ECL efficiency than TFPPy aggregates due to the separation of ACQ luminophores (i.e., TFPPy) from each other by TPh and the restriction of intramolecular motions of TFPPy and TPh to reduce the nonradiative decay. The efficient quenching of ECL is achieved by electrochemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (ERET) from the excited state of the TFPPy-TPh-COF to zeolite imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) and the steric hindrance of ZIF-8. Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) can enzymatically hydrolyze acetylcholine (ACh) to generate acetic acid. The resultant acetic acid can trigger the dissolution of ZIF-8 to produce an enhanced ECL signal. Malathion as an organophosphorus pesticide serves as an AChE inhibitor to prevent the production of acetic acid, inducing the decrease of ECL signal. This sensor displays a limit of detection (LOD) of 2.44 pg/mL and a wide dynamic detection range of 0.01-1000 ng/mL. Furthermore, it can be used to detect other organophosphates pesticides (e.g., methidathion, chlorpyrifos, and paraoxon) and measure malathion in real samples (i.e., pakchoi, lettuce, and apples).

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs), a rapidly developing category of crystalline conjugated organic polymers, possess highly ordered structures, large specific surface areas, stable chemical properties, and tunable pore microenvironments. Since the first report of boroxine/boronate ester-linked COFs in 2005, COFs have rapidly gained popularity, showing important application prospects in various fields, such as sensing, catalysis, separation, and energy storage. Among them, COFs-based electrochemical (EC) sensors with upgraded analytical performance are arousing extensive interest. In this review, therefore, we summarize the basic properties and the general synthesis methods of COFs used in the field of electroanalytical chemistry, with special emphasis on their usages in the fabrication of chemical sensors, ions sensors, immunosensors, and aptasensors. Notably, the emerged COFs in the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) realm are thoroughly covered along with their preliminary applications. Additionally, final conclusions on state-of-the-art COFs are provided in terms of EC and ECL sensors, as well as challenges and prospects for extending and improving the research and applications of COFs in electroanalytical chemistry.

Abstract
In order to overcome the poor solubilities of iridium-based ECL luminophores and explore self-enhanced ECL luminophores, polyethyleneimine (PEI) covalently linked with iridium complex via amide bonds (abbreviated as Ir-PEI) as a new novel intramolecular self-enhanced water-soluble ECL reagent has been unprecedently designed and successfully synthesized in this work. The chemical structure data, FT-IR spectra, photophysical, electrochemical and electrochemiluminescence of this new ECL reagent have been well characterized. In addition, in order to investigate its properties in the real applications, a corresponding new sensitive and specific ECL-based aptasensor to monitor tetracycline (TET) residues in honey and lake water has been further constructed based on this novel self-enhanced reagent of Ir-PEI in this work. This as-prepared intramolecular self-enhanced water-soluble of Ir-PEI illustrated in this work would pave a new avenue to promote the analytical applications of iridium-based ECL luminophores in the future.

Abstract
Considering the high risk of heavy metal ions (HMIs) transferring through the food chain and accumulating in milk, a flexible and facile point-of-care testing (POCT) platform is urgently needed for the accurate, sensitive, and highly selective on-site quantification of multiple HMIs in milk. In this work, a cost-effective disk with six screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) was designed for hand-held electrochemical detection. Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) were adopted to amplify and enhance the electrochemical signals of methylene blue (MB). Using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) methods, low limits of detection for four HMIs (Cd2+, 0.039 ppb; Hg2+, 0.039 ppb; Pb2+, 0.073 ppb; and As3+, 0.022 ppb) were achieved within four minutes. Moreover, the quantitative POCT system was applied to milk samples. The advantages of low cost, ease of on-site implementation, fast response, and accuracy allow for the POCT platform to be used in practical monitoring applications for the quantitation of multiple HMIs in milk samples.

Abstract
The application of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) in electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is promising in environmental monitoring. Developing an emerging design strategy to expand the class of COF-based ECL luminophores is highly desirable. Here, a COF-based host-guest system was constructed through guest molecular assembly to deal with nuclear contamination analysis. The efficient charge transport network was formed by inserting an electron-withdrawing guest tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) into the open space of the COF host (TP-TBDA; TP = 2,4,6-trihydroxy-1,3,5-benzenetricarbaldehyde and TBDA = 2,5-di(thiophen-2-yl)benzene-1,4-diamine) with an electron-donating property; the construction of the COF-based host-guest system (TP-TBDA@TCNQ) triggered the ECL emission of non-emitting TP-TBDA. Furthermore, the dense active sites in TP-TBDA were utilized to capture the target substance UO22+. The presence of UO22+ broke the charge-transfer effect in TP-TBDA@TCNQ, resulting in the weakening of the ECL signal, thus the established ECL system integrating the low detection limit with high selectivity monitors UO22+. This COF-based host-guest system provides a novel material platform for constructing late-model ECL luminophores and creates an opportunity for the vigorous ECL technology.

Abstract
Covalent organic framework (COF), a kind of porous polymer with crystalline properties, is a periodic porous framework material with precise regulation at atomic level, which can be formed by the orderly connection of pre-designed organic construction units through covalent bonds.

In addition, COFs can accurately integrate organic structural units with atomic precision into ordered structures, so that the structural diversity and application of COFs can be greatly enriched by designing new construction units and adopting reasonable functional strategies. In this review, we mainly summarized state-of-the-art recent advances of the classification and synthesis strategy of COFs, the design of functionalized COF for electrochemical sensors and COFs-based electrochemical sensing. Then, an overview of the considerable recent advances made in applying outstanding COFs to establish electrochemical sensing platform, including electrochemical sensor based on voltammetry, amperometry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, electrochemiluminescence, photoelectrochemical sensor and others. Finally, we discussed the positive outlooks, critical challenges and bright directions of COFs-based electrochemical sensing in the field of disease diagnosis, environmental monitoring, food safety, drug analysis, etc.

Abstract
A new strategy for nereistoxin-related insecticide, cartap, detection in foodstuff and the environment is of great importance due to its poisoning of human beings through direct exposure or via biomagnification. Herein, a highly planar conjugated sp2 carbon-connected COF (F-Csp2-TT) was synthesized via Knoevenagel condensation reaction followed by the post-modification to develop a new platform for cartap visual detection in agricultural and food samples. The synergistic effect of highly planar conjugation and dense functional groups in the opened framework endowed F-Csp2-TT with a high-precision luminescence sensing performance. Meanwhile, the exquisitely designed F-Csp2-TT presented robust chemical stability, radiation stability, and good reproducibility. Benefiting from these advantages, high-precision luminescent F-Csp2-TT achieves a low detection limit of 0.51 μg/L to cartap over the range of 1-300 μg/L (R2=0.9938), and the recoveries percentage in food products was calculated as 95.90%- 119.3%. More significantly, the smartphone-based high-precision platform by F-Csp2-TT was established and successfully applied to portable monitoring of cartap and water content. Therefore, our work revealed the enormous potential of Csp2-connected COF, which opened a new situation for insecticide detection.

Abstract
Exploring new highly efficient electrochemiluminescence (ECL) luminophores is a necessary condition for developing ultrasensitive ECL biosensors. Therefore, a luminescent carbon dot-based covalent organic framework (CD-COF) was prepared using aldehyde-based carbon dots (CDs) and 1,3,5-tris (4-aminophenyl) benzene (TPB). Because the CD-COF made the regular arrangement of CDs conducive to improving the ECL response, CD-COF had a higher ECL intensity and efficiency than CDs. What's more, the ECL intensity of the CD-COF/S2O82-/Bu4N+ system was about 2.98, 7.50, and 28.08 times higher than those of the CD-COF/S2O82-, CDs/S2O82- and S2O82- systems, respectively. Considering the remarkable ECL performance, the CD-COF/S2O82-/Bu4N+ system was employed combined with the CRISPR/Cas12a trans-cutting strategy to construct an "off-on" ECL biosensor for BPA detection. The proposed ECL biosensor exhibited excellent performance with a wide linear range from 1.0 × 10-14 mol L-1 to 1.0 × 10-5 mol L-1 with a low detection limit of 2.21 fM (S/N = 3) under the optimized conditions. The biosensor demonstrated that CD-COF can be used as an efficient ECL emitter, thus expanding the application field of COFs. In addition, the good stability and specificity of the biosensor enabled the rapid detection of BPA, which will provide valuable insights into promising ultrasensitive ECL biosensors.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are excellent candidates for rationally designed metal-coordinated catalysts due to their porous structures and adjustable organic building blocks. In this work, a two-dimensional (2D) COF with novel fxt topology was synthesized. The newly devised COF had been fully characterized by a range of spectroscopic and microscopic techniques. The COF was further metallized by the gold species to form a heterogeneous catalyst that enabled the one-pot synthesis of flavone and its derivatives. The Au@COF catalyst showed high catalytic activity and good recyclability. This work demonstrates the great potential of metallized COFs with unique well-defined pores in organic catalysis.

Abstract
The family of electrochemiluminescent luminophores has witnessed quick development since the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) phenomenon of silicon nanoparticles was first reported in 2002. Moreover, these developed ECL nanoemitters have extensively been applied in sensitive detection of protein biomarker by combining with immunological recognition. This review firstly summarized the origin and development of various ECL nanoemitters including inorganic and organic nanomaterials, with an emphasis on metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)-based ECL nanoemitters. Several effective strategies to amplify the ECL response of nanoemitters and improve the sensitivity of immunosensing were discussed. The application of ECL nanoemitters in immunoassay of protein biomarkers for diagnosis of cancers and other diseases, especially lung cancer and heart diseases, was comprehensively presented. The recent development of ECL imaging with the nanoemitters as ECL tags for detection of multiplex protein biomarkers on single cell membrane also attracted attention. Finally, the future opportunities and challenges in the ECL biosensing field were highlighted.

Abstract
Porous nanomaterials have attracted much attention in the field of electrochemiluminescence (ECL) analysis research because of their large specific surface area, high porosity, possession of multiple functional groups, and ease of modification. Porous nanomaterials can not only serve as good carriers for loading ECL luminophores to prepare nanomaterials with excellent luminescence properties, but they also have a good electrical conductivity to facilitate charge transfer and substance exchange between electrode surfaces and solutions. In particular, some porous nanomaterials with special functional groups or centered on metals even possess excellent catalytic properties that can enhance the ECL response of the system. ECL composites prepared based on porous nanomaterials have a wide range of applications in the field of ECL biosensors due to their extraordinary ECL response. In this paper, we reviewed recent research advances in various porous nanomaterials commonly used to fabricate ECL biosensors, such as ordered mesoporous silica (OMS), metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent organic frameworks (COFs) and metal-polydopamine frameworks (MPFs). Their applications in the detection of heavy metal ions, small molecules, proteins and nucleic acids are also summarized. The challenges and prospects of constructing ECL biosensors based on porous nanomaterials are further discussed. We hope that this review will provide the reader with a comprehensive understanding of the development of porous nanomaterial-based ECL systems in analytical biosensors and materials science.

Abstract
In recent years, with the rapid development of electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensors, more luminophores have been designed to achieve high-throughput and reliable analysis. Impressively, after the proposed fantastic concept of "aggregation-induced electrochemiluminescence (AIECL)" by Cola, the application of AIECL emitters provides more abundant choices for the further improvement of ECL sensors. In this review, we briefly report the phenomenon, principle and representative applications of aggregation-induced emission (AIE) and AIECL emitters. Moreover, it is noteworthy that the cases of AIECL sensors for bioanalytical detection are summarized in detail, from 2017 to now. Finally, inspired by the applications of AIECL emitters, relevant prospects and challenges for AIECL sensors are proposed, which is of great significance for exploring more advanced bioanalytical detection technology.

Abstract
Sensing analysis is significantly important for human health and environmental safety, and has gained increasing concern. As a promising material, porous organic polymers (POPs) have drawn widespread attention due to the availability of plentiful building blocks and their tunable structures, porosity and functions. Moreover, the permanent porous nature could provide a micro-environment to interact with guest molecules, rendering POPs attractive for application in the sensing field. In this review, we give a comprehensive overview of POPs as a platform for sensing applications. POP-based sensors are mainly divided into five categories, including fluorescence turn-on sensors, fluorescence turn-off sensors, ratiometric fluorescent sensors, colorimetric sensors and chemiresistive sensors, and their various sensing applications in detecting explosives, metal ions, anions, small molecules, biological molecules, pH changes, enantiomers, latent fingerprints and thermosensation are summarized. The different structure-based POPs and their corresponding synthetic strategies as well as the related sensing mechanisms mainly including energy transfer, donor-acceptor electron transfer, absorption competition quenching and inner filter effect are also involved in the discussion. Finally, the future outlook and perspective are addressed briefly.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have attracted widespread attention in the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) field owing to their high load capacity of ECL luminophores and porous structures, but their ECL performance is still limited by the intrinsic poor conductivity (generally <10-8 S m-1). To address this shortcoming, we used 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexaaminotriphenylene (HATP) and 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexahydroxytriphenylene (HHTP) to synthesize a conductive COF (HHTP-HATP-COF, conductivity = 3.11 × 10-4 S m-1). Compared with HATP, HHTP, and low-conductive HHTP-DABZ-COF, HHTP-HATP-COF exhibited superior ECL performance, not only because HHTP-HATP-COF possessed massive ECL luminophores but also because its conductive porous framework accelerated charge transport in the whole framework and improved the utilization ratio of ECL luminophores. More interestingly, the ECL intensity of the HHTP-HATP-COF/S2O82- system was further improved after pre-reduction electrolysis due to the accumulation of HHTP-HATP-COF cation radicals. The experimental results showed that the ECL intensity of the HHTP-HATP-COF/S2O82- system after pre-reduction was about 1.64-, 3.96-, 6.88-, and 8.09-fold higher than those of HHTP-HATP-COF/S2O82-, HHTP-DABZ-COF/S2O82-, HHTP/S2O82-, and HATP/S2O82- systems, respectively. Considering the superior ECL property of the HHTP-HATP-COF/S2O82- system after pre-reduction, it was used as a high-efficient ECL beacon together with an aptamer/protein proximity binding-induced three-dimensional bipedal DNA walker to construct an ultrasensitive biosensor for thrombin detection, which displayed broad linearity (100 aM to 1 nM) with a detection limit of 62.1 aM. Overall, the work offered effective ways to increase ECL performance by the enhancement of conductivity and by the pre-reduction, proposing new ideas to design high-efficiency COF-based ECL materials and endowing conductive COFs with ECL biosensor application for the first time.

Nowadays, continuous efforts have been devoted to searching highly efficient electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emitters for applications in clinical diagnosis and food safety. In this work, triazinyl-based hydrogen bond organic frameworks (Tr-HOFs) were synthesized by N···H hydrogen bond self-assembly aggregation, where 6,6'-(1,4-phenylene)bis(1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diamine) (phenyDAT) was prepared via the cyclization reaction and behaved as a novel ligand. Impressively, the resulting Tr-HOFs showed strong ECL responses with highly enhanced ECL efficiency (21.3%) relative to the Ru(bpy)32+ standard, while phenyDAT hardly showed any ECL emission in aqueous phase. The Tr-HOFs innovatively worked as a new ECL luminophore to construct a label-free biosensor for assay of kanamycin (Kana). Specifically, the ECL response greatly weakened upon assembly of captured DNA with ferrocene (cDNA-Fc) onto the Tr-HOFs-modified electrode, while the ECL signals were adversely recovered by releasing linked DNA (L-DNA) from double-stranded DNA (dsDNA, hybridization of aptamer DNA (aptDNA) with L-DNA) due to the specific recognition of Kana with the aptDNA combined by the linkage of L-DNA and cDNA-Fc on the electrode. The as-built sensor showed a broadened linear range (1 nM-10 μM) and a limit of detection (LOD) down to 0.28 nM, which also displayed satisfactory results in the analysis of Kana in the milk and diluted human serum samples. This work offers a novel pathway to design an ECL emitter with organic molecules, holding great promise in biomedical analysis and food detection.

Abstract
Electrochemiluminescence (ECL), as an advanced sensing process, can selectively control the generation of excited states by changing the potential. However, most of the existing ECL systems rely on poisonous coreactants to provide radicals for luminescence; although the ECL efficiency was improved, the athematic coreactants will cause unpredictable interference to the accurate analysis of trace targets. Herein, we realized the ECL of nonemitting molecules by performing intramolecular electron transfer in the olefin-linked covalent organic frameworks (COFs), with a high efficiency of 63.7%. Employing internal dissolved oxygen as the coreactant, it is well suitable for the analysis of various complex samples in the environment. Taking nuclear contamination analysis as the goal orientation, we further illustrated a design of a "turn-on" uranyl ion monitoring system integrating fast response, low detection limit, and high selectivity, showing that new ECL-COFs are promising to facilitate environment-related sensing analysis and structure-feature correlation mechanism exploration.

Abstract
With the emergence of microRNA (miRNA) as a key player in early clinical disease diagnosis, development of rapidly sensitive and quantitative miRNA detection methods are imperative. Herein, a label-free SERS assay coupled with duplex-specific nuclease (DSN) signal amplification strategy was proposed for facilely ultrasensitive and quantitative analysis of miRNA-21. Firstly, magnetic beads assembled with excessive capture DNA were utilized to hybridize the target miRNA-21. These DNA-RNA heteroduplexes were cleaved by DSN to generate small nucleotide fragments into the supernatant and the miRNA-21 released and rehybridized another DNA, going to the next DSN cycle. Consequently, numerous of small nucleotide fragments of capture DNA were released from magnetic beads and the miRNA-21 signal was transferred and amplified by the SERS signals of total phosphate backbones which are abundant in nucleotide. Furthermore, iodide-modified Ag nanoparticles (AgINPs) was employed to generate a strong and reproducible SERS signal. The proposed method displayed excellent performance for miRNA-21 detection with the linear range from 0.33 fM to 3.3 pM, and a lower detection limit of 42 aM. Moreover, this strategy exhibited effectively base discrimination capability and was successfully applied for monitoring the expression levels of miRNA-21 in different cancer cell lines and human serum.

Abstract
The control of charge transfer between radical anions and cations is a promising way for decoding the emission mechanism in electrochemiluminescence (ECL) systems. Herein, a type of donor-acceptor (D-A) covalent organic framework (COF) with triphenylamine and triazine units is designed as a highly efficient ECL emitter with tunable intrareticular charge transfer (IRCT). The D-A COF demonstrates 123 folds enhancement in ECL intensity compared with its benzene-based COF with small D-A contrast. Further, the COF's crystallinity- and protonation-modulated ECL behaviors confirm ECL dependence on intrareticular charge transfer between donor and acceptor units, which is rationalized by density functional theory. Significantly, dual-peaked ECL patterns of COFs are achieved through an IRCT mediated competitive oxidation mechanism: the coreactant-mediated oxidation at lower potential and the direct oxidation at higher potential. This work provides a new fundamental and approach to improve the ECL efficiency for designing next-generation ECL devices.

Abstract
This work designed a signal amplification strategy for construction of a highly sensitive electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor by doping Cu2+ in a terbium luminescent metal organic framework (Cu:Tb-MOF) to act as a co-reaction promoter, which enhanced the generation of SO4•- radical during the cathodic process in the presence of K2S2O8 as a co-reactant. The porous and hollow morphology and the size of Cu:Tb-MOF could be efficiently tuned via changing the molar ratio of Cu2+ and Tb3+ and the reaction time, which were related to the specific surface area, pore diameter, and the ECL intensity of the MOF structure. To further improve the sensitivity of the ECL biosensor, H2O2 was introduced into the ECL system to act as another co-reaction promoter, leading to a new ECL mechanism involving dual co-reaction promoters. In view of the low electron transfer resistance of Cu:Tb-MOF, a label-free ECL immunosensor was conveniently constructed by co-immobilizing Cu:Tb-MOF and the capture antibody on the electrode surface. Using pro-gastrin-releasing peptide (ProGRP, a biomarker of small-cell lung cancer) as the model target, the proposed immunosensor exhibited excellent performance with a detection range of 1.0 pg·mL-1 to 50 ng·mL-1 and a limit of detection down to 0.68 pg·mL-1 (3σ). This work demonstrated a strategy to use the MOF structures as both an emitter and a co-reaction promoter for amplified ECL emission and proposed an innovative route to extend the application of lanthanide MOFs.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with stable long-range ordered arrangements are promising materials for organic optoelectronics. However, their electrochemiluminescence (ECL) from non-ECL active monomers has not been realized. Here, we report a design strategy for ECL-emitting COF family. The donors and acceptors co-crystallized and stacked into the highly aligned array of olefin-linked COFs, so that electrons can be transported freely. By this means, a tunable ECL is activated from non-ECL molecules with the maximum efficiency of 32.1% in water with the dissolved oxygen as an inner coreactant, and no additional noxious co-reactant is needed any more. Quantum chemistry calculations further demonstrate that this design reduces the COFs' band gaps and the overlap of electrons and holes in the excited state for better photoelectric properties and stronger ECL signals. This work exploits a basis to envisage the broad application potential of ECL-COFs for various biosensors and light-emitting display.

Abstract
Mechanisms of emissions, especially electrochemiluminescence (ECL), for graphene quantum dots (GQDs) are poorly understood, which makes near-infrared (NIR)-emitting GQDs difficult to create. To explore this poorly understood NIR ECL, two GQDs, nitrogen-doped GQDs (GQD-1) and nitrogen- and sulfur-doped ones (GQD-2), were prepared by a simple one-step solvothermal reaction with similar core structures but different surface states. The GQDs were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. Photoluminescence results, with a comparable quantum efficiency of 13% to strong luminophores in aqueous media, suggested a mechanism that the emission mainly depends on the core structure while slightly adjusted by the heteroatom doping. ECL of GQD-2 dispersed in aqueous media with K2S2O8 as the coreactant was measured by means of ECL-voltage curves and ECL spectroscopy, demonstrating strong NIR emissions between 680 and 870 nm, with a high ECL efficiency of 13% relative to that of the Ru(bpy)32+/K2S2O8 system. Interestingly, ECL is generated by surface excited states emitting light at a much longer wavelength in the NIR region. The easily prepared GQD-2 has several advantages such as low cost and quite strong NIR-ECL in aqueous media, with which wide applications in biodetection are anticipated.

Abstract
Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) plays a key role in analysis and sensing because of its high sensitivity and low background. Its wide applications are however limited by a lack of highly tunable ECL luminophores. Here we develop a scalable method to design ECL emitters of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) in aqueous medium by simultaneously restricting the donor and acceptor to the COFs' tight electron configurations and constructing high-speed charge transport networks through olefin linkages. This design allows efficient intramolecular charge transfer for strong ECL, and no exogenous poisonous co-reactants are needed. Olefin-linked donor-acceptor conjugated COFs, systematically synthesized by combining non-ECL active monomers with C2v or C3v symmetry, exhibit strong ECL signals, which can be boosted by increasing the chain length and conjugation of monomers. The present concept demonstrates that the highly efficient COF-based ECL luminophores can be precisely designed, providing a promising direction toward COF-based ECL phosphors.
