Abstract
DNA hydrogel represents a noteworthy biomaterial. The preparation of biosensors by combining DNA hydrogel with electrochemiluminescence can simplify the modification process and raise the experimental efficiency. In this study, an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor based on DNA hydrogel was fabricated to detect adenosine triphosphate (ATP) simply and quickly. CdTe-Ru@SiO2 nanospheres capable of ECL resonance energy transfer (RET) were synthesized and encapsulated CdTe-Ru@SiO2 in the DNA hydrogel to provide strong and stable ECL signals. DNA hydrogel avoided the labeling of ECL signal molecules. The aptamer of ATP as the linker of the hydrogel for the specificity of ATP detection. The cross-linked structure of the aptamer and the polymer chains was opened by ATP, and then the decomposition of the DNA hydrogel initiated the escape of CdTe-Ru@SiO2 to generate an ECL signal. The designed biosensor detected ATP without too much modification and complex experimental steps on the electrode surface, with good specificity and stability, and a wide linear range. The detection range was 10-5000 nM, and the detection limit was 6.68 nM (S/N = 3). The combination of DNA hydrogel and ECL biosensor provided a new way for clinical detection of ATP and other biomolecule.

Abstract
In this work, a molecularly imprinted electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensor was developed for selective detection of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) in drinking water for the first time. By synthesizing velvet-like graphitic carbon nitride (V-g-C3N4) via one-step thermal polycondensation and integrating it with a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP), the ECL sensor was fabricated. The MIP-modified V-g-C3N4 composites (MIP/V-g-C3N4) were synthesized using a sol-gel method with 4-NP as the template molecule. Under optimal conditions, the ECL sensor exhibited a wide detection range (5 × 10-10-1 × 10-5 mol/L) and a low detection limit (1.8 × 10-10 mol/L). In testing with actual drinking water samples, it displayed high accuracy (recoveries for intraday and inter-day: 93.50-106.2% and 97.00-107.3%, separately) and precision (RSDs for intraday and inter-day: 1.54-4.59% and 1.53-4.28%, respectively). The developed MIP-based ECL sensor demonstrated excellent selectivity, stability, and reproducibility, offering a promising and reliable approach for highly sensitive and selective determination of 4-NP in drinking water.

Abstract
Herein, a dual-defective graphite carbon nitride (DDCN) was prepared by polymerization under N2 atmosphere combined with oxidation treatment. The luminous intensity of dual-defect graphite phase carbon nitride based on defect state luminescence is significantly improved compared to CN-air. On this basis, a biosensor for CEA detection was constructed based on specific immunobinding of antigen-antibody. It is noted that the biosensor exhibits a wide linear range of 1 × 10-5 ∼ 1 × 102 ng•mL-1, a low detection limit of 3.3 × 10-4 pg•mL-1, a recovery of 94 %∼105 % and RSD less than 4.41 %. In addition, there was no significant difference to the clinical results, indicating that this work has good clinical application prospects.

Abstract
Here, ultrasmall SiO2 nanoparticles (u-SiO2 NPs, <5 nm) with obvious electrochemiluminescence (ECL) phenomenon, which was absent for conventional silica nanoparticles (c-SiO2 NPs), were reported. In a finite ultrasmall volume, the u-SiO2 NPs exhibited increasing ground state energy and higher optical absorption strength due to the electron-hole confinement model and favored catalyzing the reaction through the rapid diffusion of bulk charge, resulting in apparent ECL emission. Then, Zn2+-induced u-SiO2 nanoaggregates (Zn/u-SiO2-Ov nAGG) were synthesized and exhibited improved ECL performance via multipath surface state adjustment of u-SiO2 from several aspects, including aggregation-induced ECL, the generation of oxygen vacancy (Ov), and more positive surface charge. In addition, an ECL biosensor was constructed for ultrasensitive human immunodeficiency virus-related deoxyribonucleic acid detection from 100 aM to 1 nM with a low limit of 50.48 aM, combining the ECL luminescence of Zn/u-SiO2-Ov nAGG with three-dimensional DNA nanomachine-mediated multioutput amplification for enhanced accuracy and sensitivity compared to the single-output method. Therefore, exploring the ECL of ultrasmall nanoparticles via the adjustment of size and surface state provided a valuable indication to a wider investigation and application of novel ECL materials for clinical diagnostic.

Abstract
In this study, a novel europium dual-ligand metal-organic gel (Eu-D-MOGs) with high-efficient anodic annihilation electrochemiluminescence (ECL) was synthesized as an ECL emitter to construct a biosensor for ultrasensitive detection of microRNA-221 (miR-221). Impressively, compared to the ECL signal of europium single-ligand metal-organic gels (Eu-S-MOGs), the ECL signal of Eu-D-MOGs was significantly improved since the two organic ligands could jointly replace the H2O and coordinate with Eu3+, which could remarkably reduce the nonradiative vibrational energy transfer caused by the coordination between H2O and Eu3+ with a high coordination demand. In addition, Eu-D-MOGs could be electrochemically oxidized to Eu-D-MOGs•+ at 1.45 V and reduced to Eu-D-MOGs•- at 0.65 V to achieve effective annihilation of ECL, which overcame the side reaction brought by the remaining emitters at negative potential. This benefited from the annihilation ECL performance of the central ion Eu3+ caused by its redox in the electrochemical process. Furthermore, the annihilation ECL signal of Eu3+ could be improved by sensitizing Eu3+ via the antenna effect. In addition, combined with the improved rolling circle amplification-assisted strand displacement amplification strategy (RCA-SDA), a sensitive biosensor was constructed for the sensitive detection of miR-221 with a low detection limit of 5.12 aM and could be successfully applied for the detection of miR-221 in the lysate of cancer cells. This strategy offered a unique approach to synthesizing metal-organic gels as ECL emitters without a coreactant for the construction of ECL biosensing platforms in biomarker detection and disease diagnosis.

Abstract
We present a dimensional regulating charge transfer strategy to achieve an enhanced electrochemiluminescence (ECL) by constructing a one-dimensional pyrene-based covalent organic framework (1D-COF). The dual-chain-like edge architecture in 1D-COF facilitates the stabilization of aromatic backbones, the enhancement of electronic conjugations, and the decrease of energy loss. The 1D-COF generates enhanced anodic (92.5-fold) and cathodic (3.2-fold) signals with tripropylamine (TPrA) and K2S2O8 as the anodic and cathodic coreactants, respectively, compared with 2D-COF. The anodic and cathodic ECL efficiencies of 1D-COF are 2.08- and 3.08-fold higher than those of 2D-COF, respectively. According to density functional theory (DFT), the rotational barrier energy (ΔE) of 1D-COF enhances sharply with the increase of dihedral angle, suggesting that the architecture in 1D-COF restrains the intramolecular spin of aromatic chains, which facilitates the decrease of nonradiative transitions and the enhancement of ECL. Furthermore, 1D-COF can be used to construct an ECL biosensor for sensitive detection of dopamine.

Abstract
Herein, novel europium metal-organic gels (Eu-MOGs) with excellent cathode electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emission are first used to construct biosensors for the ultrasensitive detection of miRNA-222. Impressively, N and O elements of organic ligand 2,2':6,2″-terpyridine 4,4',4″-tricarboxylic acid (H3-tctpy) can perfectly coordinate with Eu3+ to form Eu-MOGs, which not only reduce nonradiative transition caused by the intramolecular free rotation of phenyl rings in other MOGs to enhance the ECL signal with extraordinary ECL efficiency as high as 37.2% (vs the [Ru(bpy)3]2+/S2O82- ECL system) but also reinforce ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) by the strong affinity between Eu3+ and N and O elements to greatly improve the stability of ECL signals. Besides, an improved nucleic acid cascade amplification reaction is developed to greatly raise the conversion efficiency from target miRNA-222 to a DNAzyme-mediated dual-drive DNA walker as output DNA, which can simultaneously shear the specific recognition sites from two directions. In that way, the proposed biosensor can further enhance the detection sensitivity of miRNA-222 with a linear range of 10 aM-1 nM and a detection limit (LOD) of 8.5 aM, which can also achieve an accurate response in cancer cell lysates of MHCC-97L and HeLa. Additionally, the biosensor can be self-regenerated by the folding/unfolding of related triplets with pH changes to simplify experimental operations and reduce the cost. Hence, this work proposed novel MOGs with stable and intense ECL signals for the construction of a renewable ECL biosensor, supplying a reliable detection method in biomarker analysis and disease diagnosis.

Abstract
Metal-organic gels (MOGs) are a new type of intelligent soft material, which are bridged by metal ions and organic ligands through noncovalent interactions. In this paper, we prepared highly stable P-MOGs, using the classical organic electrochemiluminescence (ECL) luminescence meso-tetra(4-carboxyphenyl)porphine as the organic ligand and Fe3+ as the metal ion. Surprisingly, P-MOGs can stably output ECL signals at a low potential. We introduced P-MOGs into the ECL resonance energy transfer strategy (ECL-RET) and constructed a quenched ECL immunosensor for the detection of the SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein (SARS-CoV-2-N). In the ECL-RET system, P-MOGs were used as energy donors, and Au@Cu2O@Fe3O4 were selected as energy acceptors. The ultraviolet-visible spectrum of Au@Cu2O@Fe3O4 partially overlaps with the ECL spectrum of P-MOGs, which can effectively touch off the ECL-RET behavior between the donors and receptors. Under the ideal experimental situation, the linear detection range of the SARS-CoV-2-N concentration was 10 fg/mL to 100 ng/mL, and the limit of detection was 1.5 fg/mL. This work has broad application prospects for porphyrin-MOGs in ECL sensing.

Abstract
Graphitic-phase carbon nitride (g-C3N4) materials have exhibited increasingly remarkable performance as emerging electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emitters, owing to their unique optical and electronic properties; however, the ECL merits of porous g-C3N4 nanofibers doped with ternary metals are not yet explored. Deciphering the ECL properties of trimetal-doped g-C3N4 nanofibers could provide an exquisite pathway for ultrasensitive sensing and imaging with impressive advantages of minimal background signal, great sensitivity, and durability. Herein, we rationally synthesized g-C3N4 nanofibers doped atomically with Mn, Fe, and Co elements (Mn/Fe/Co/g-C3N4) in a one-pot via the protonation in ethanol and annealing process driven by the rolling up mechanism. The ECL performance of g-C3N4 with and without metal dopants was investigated and compared with standard Ru(bpy)32+ in the presence of potassium persulfate (K2S2O8) as the coreactant. Notably, g-C3N4 nanofibers doped with metal ions exhibited an ECL efficiency of 483% that was 4.83 times higher than that of Ru(bpy)32+. Mechanistic investigations unveiled that the g-C3N4 nanofibers possess a large surface area and, as a result, exhibit a reduced interfacial impedance within the porous microstructure. These factors contribute to the acceleration of charge transfer rates and the stabilization of charge carriers and excitons, ultimately facilitating the ECL process. This research endeavor may pave the way for a new hot research area and serves as a powerful tool for elucidating fundamental inquiries of ECL on one-dimensional g-C3N4 nanostructures.

SnS2 QDs were loaded onto g-C3N4 nanosheets and enhanced the ECL luminescence via strong synergistic effects under an ultralow potential. The UV-vis absorption spectrum of CuO/NH2-UiO-66 exhibits considerable overlap with the ECL emission spectrum of SnS2 QDs/g-C3N4, an important consideration for the RET process. In order to stimulate RET, the ZEN aptamer and complementary DNA are introduced for conjugation between the donor and the acceptor. With the binding interaction between ZEN by its aptamer, CuO/NH2-UiO-66 is removed from the electrode surface, resulting in the inhibition of the RET system and an increase in the ECL signal. Under optimal conditions, the as-prepared aptasensor quantified ZEN from 0.5 μg·mL-1 to 0.1 fg·mL-1 with a low limit of detection of 0.085 fg·mL-1, and it exhibited good stability, excellent specificity, high reproducibility, and desirable practicality. The sensing strategy provides a method for mycotoxins assay to monitor food safety.
