Abstract
Programming ultrasensitive and stimuli-responsive DNAzyme-based probes holds great potential for on-demand biomarker detection. Here, an optically triggered DNAzyme platform was reported for on-demand activation-sensitive electrochemiluminescence (ECL) c-myc mRNA analysis. In this design, the sensing and recognition function of the split DNAzyme (SDz) probe was silent by engineering a blocking sequence containing a photocleavable linker (PC-linker) group at a defined site that could be indirectly cleaved by 302 nm ultraviolet (UV) light. When the SDz probes were assembled on the Au nanoparticles and potassium (K) element doped graphitic carbon nitride nanosheet (K-doped g-C3N4) covered electrode, UV light activation induces the configurational switching and consequently the formation of an active DNAzyme probe with the help of target c-myc mRNA, allowing the cleavage of the substrate strand by magnesium ions (Mg2+). Thus, the release of a ferrocene (Fc)-labeled DNAzyme 2 strand contributed to an extreme ECL signal recovery. In the meantime, the released target c-myc mRNA combined another inactive SDz motif to form active DNAzyme and repeat the cyclic cleavage reaction, resulting in the signal amplification. Furthermore, according to the responses toward two other designed nPC-SDz and m-SDz probes, we demonstrated that controlled UV light mediated photoactivation of the DNAzyme biosensor "on demand" effectively constrained the ECL signal to the mRNA of interest. Moreover, false positive signals could also be avoided due to such a photoactivation design with UV light. Therefore, this study provided a simple methodology that may be broadly applicable for investigating the mRNA-associated physiological events that were difficult to access using traditional DNAzyme probes.

Abstract
In this study, an electrochemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (ECL-RET) immunosensor was constructed to detect beta-2-microglobulin (B2M). As a donor-acceptor pair, a carbon nitride nanosheet modified with gold nanoparticles (Au@g-C3N4NSs) and a nickel- and iron-based organic framework modified with gold nanoparticles (Au@NiFeMOFs) were prepared. The sandwich immunosensor was successfully constructed so that ECL-RET occurred between Au@NiFeMOFs and Au@g-C3N4NSs. The ECL intensity of the immunosensor decreased with the increase the B2M concentration due to the low conductivity of B2M. The linear range of the ECL-RET immunosensor was from 10 fg/mL to 10 ng/mL, and the limit of detection was 2.3 fg/mL (S/N = 3). The developed immunosensor had high sensitivity, high specificity, and excellent stability. It could realize the sensitivity test of B2M and provide a novel idea for the detection of biomarkers.

Abstract
Almost all current electrochemiluminescent reagents require real-time electrochemical stimulation to emit light. Here, we report a novel electrochemiluminescent reagent, nitrogen-deficient graphitic carbon nitride (CNx), that can emit afterglow electrochemiluminescence (ECL) after cessation of electric excitation. CNx obtained by post-thermal treatment of graphitic carbon nitride (CN) with KSCN has a cyanamide group and a nitrogen vacancy, which created defects to trap electrically injected electrons. The trapped electrons can slowly release and react with coreactants to emit light with longevity. The cathodic afterglow ECL lasts for 70 s after pulsing the CNx nanosheet (CNxNS-1.6)-modified glassy carbon electrode at -1.0 V for 20 s in 2.0 M PBS containing 1 mM K2S2O8. The afterglow ECL mechanism is revealed by investigation of its influencing factors and ECL wavelength. The discovery of afterglow ECL may open a new doorway for new significant applications of the ECL technique and provide a deeper understanding of the structure-property relationships of CN.

Abstract
Perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) as recently emerging electrochemiluminescence (ECL) luminophores have been paid much attention due to their good ECL activity, narrow ECL spectra, and easy preparation. However, the PQDs used for ECL sensing were mainly inherited from those PQDs prepared as strong fluorescence (FL) luminophores, which would limit the finding of highly ECL PQDs for sensing due to the very different mechanisms in generating excited-state luminophores between ECL and FL. In order to obtain highly electrochemiluminescent PQDs, for the first time we proposed to synthesize PQDs for ECL sensing rather than for FL-based analysis by optimizing the synthesis conditions. It was revealed that the volume of the precursor solution, the concentrations of CsBr and PbBr2, the amount of capping reagents, and the synthesis reaction temperature all significantly affect the ECL activity of PQDs. On the basis of the optimization of the synthesis conditions, we obtained a new type of PQDs with high ECL activity. The new PQDs were characterized by several technologies, such as scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and energy dispersive X-ray spectrum, to be the hybrids of 3D PQDs (CsPbBr3) and 0D PQDs (Cs4PbBr6) with unique morphologies, i.e., Cs4PbBr6@CsPbBr3 PQD nanoacanthospheres (PNAs), in which Cs4PbBr6 was as the core and CsPbBr3 served as the shell. The obtained Cs4PbBr6@CsPbBr3 PNAs had much higher (>4 times) ECL activity than the prevailing 3D (CsPbBr3) PQDs. Finally, the novel Cs4PbBr6@CsPbBr3 PNAs have been applied for the ECL sensing of bisphenol A (BPA), showing a promising application of the highly electrochemiluminescent PQDs in analytical chemistry.

Abstract
Herein, a label-free and immobilization-free electrochemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (ECL-RET) system based on graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets (GCNNs)/Ru(phen)32+ donor/acceptor pair is developed, in which the ECL-RET is regulated by regulating the diffusivity of Ru(phen)32+ molecules toward the negatively charged GCNNs through logically programmed DNA hybridization reactions. The two optical signals of GCNNs (445 nm) and Ru(phen)32+ (593 nm) show completely opposite changes through the same one-time DNA hybridization reaction. Based on this ECL-RET system, a contrary logic pair (CLP) library, a parity generator/checker system for differentiating the erroneous bits during data transmission, the parity checker to identify the even/odd natural numbers from 0 to 9, and a series of concatenated logic circuits including a six-input logic gate capable of implementing of 64 input combinations for meeting the needs of computational complexity are developed. The ECL-RET-based molecular logic system avoids the time-consuming, costly and inefficient labeling procedures and the laborious processes of immobilization, presenting great potential for building more complicated and advanced logic gates, and providing a refreshing inspiration for the construction of combinatorial logic circuits based on ECL method.

Abstract
Nowadays, information processing is based on semiconductor (e.g., silicon) devices. Unfortunately, the performance of such devices has natural limitations owing to the physics of semiconductors. Therefore, the problem of finding new strategies for storing and processing an ever-increasing amount of diverse data is very urgent. To solve this problem, scientists have found inspiration in nature, because living organisms have developed uniquely productive and efficient mechanisms for processing and storing information. We address several biological aspects of information and artificial models mimicking corresponding bioprocesses. For instance, we review the formation of synchronization patterns and the emergence of order out of chaos in model chemical systems. We also consider molecular logic and ion fluxes as information carriers. Finally, we consider recent progress in infochemistry, a new direction at the interface of chemistry, biology, and computer science, considering unconventional methods of information processing.

Abstract
This article summarizes more than 10 years of cooperation with Prof. Helmuth Möhwald. Here we describe how the research moved from light-regulated feedback sustainable systems and control biodevices to the current focus on infochemistry in aqueous solution. An important advanced characteristic of such materials and devices is the pH concentration gradient in aqueous solution. A major part of the article focuses on the use of localized illumination for proton generation as a reliable, minimal-reagent-consuming, stable light-promoted proton pump. The in situ scanning vibration electrode technique (SVET) and scanning ion-selective electrode technique (SIET) are efficient for the spatiotemporal evolution of ions on the surface. pH-sensitive polyelectrolyte (PEs) multilayers with different PE architectures are composed with a feedback loop for bionic devices. We show here that pH-regulated PE multilayers can change their properties-film thickness and stiffness, permeability, hydrophilicity, and/or fluorescence-in response to light or electrochemical or biological processes instead of classical acid/base titration.

Abstract
We successfully prepared acetaldehyde-modified graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) ultrathin nanosheets (ACNNSs) by a simple ethylene glycol-assisted liquid exfoliation method. The introduction of acetaldehyde regulated the surface energy of g-C3N4 to better match with that of water, which improved the exfoliation efficiency. Moreover, acetaldehyde introduces defects into the g-C3N4 structure, which can act as excitation energy traps and cause considerable variation in the fluorescence emission. Benefiting from the stable photoluminescence emission, good water solubility, and biocompatibility, the obtained ACNNSs showed a selective fluorescent response to Ag+ in both aqueous solution and living cells. The strong absorption and intimate contact with Ag+ and its appropriate redox potential of ACNNSs contributed to this excellent fluorescent response. A simple and environmental friendly approach was proposed to simultaneously achieve modification and exfoliation of g-C3N4 in aqueous solution. These findings might lead to wider applications of carbon-based nanomaterials as active materials for fluorescence detection in the environment.

Abstract
Graphite-like carbon nitride nanosheets (g-C3N4 NSs) have recently emerged as electrochemiluminescent (ECL) nanomaterials and have attracted more and more attention due to their excellent ECL properties and promising applications in ECL sensing. However, the ECL study of g-C3N4 NSs is still in the early stages. Many studies are required to reveal the exact ECL mechanisms of g-C3N4 NSs and thus boost their sensing applications. In this paper, we have investigated ECL interactions between folic acid (FA) and a g-C3N4 NS/S2O8(2-) ECL system at a g-C3N4 NS-reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanohybrid/glassy carbon electrode in aqueous solutions. Compared with bare g-C3N4 NSs, the nanohybrids of g-C3N4 NS-rGO give a much stable ECL emission due to the prevention of over electrochemical reduction of g-C3N4 by rGO. The stable ECL emission from the g-C3N4 NS-rGO/S2O8(2-) ECL system can be strongly quenched by FA, even in a very low concentration (pM levels). The ECL quenching mechanisms are investigated and discussed in detail. Based on the strong interactions between FA and g-C3N4 NSs, a novel, sensitive, stable and selective ECL sensor has been constructed for the detection of FA, with a wide linear response range from 0.1 to 90 nM, and an excellent detection limit (62 pM). This work not only further clarifies ECL mechanisms of g-C3N4 NSs, but also suggests a promising application of the newly emerging ECL nanomaterial.

Abstract
DNA methylation catalyzed by methylase plays a key role in many biological activities. However, developing a highly sensitive, simple, and reliable way for evaluation of DNA methyltransferase (MTase) activity is still a challenge. Here, we report a sandwich-assembled electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor using multifunctional carbon nitride nanosheets (CNNS) to evaluate the Dam MTase activity. The CNNS could not only be used as an excellent substrate to conjugate a large amount of hairpin probe DNA to improve the sensitivity but also be utilized as an internal reliability checker and an analyte reporter in the bottom and top layers of the biosensor, respectively. Such a unique sandwich configuration of CNNS well coupled the advantages of ECL luminophor that were generally assembled in the bottom or top layer in a conventional manner. As a result, the biosensor exhibited an ultralow detection limit down to 0.043 U/mL and a linear range between 0.05 and 80 U/mL, superior to the MTase activity assay in most previous reports. We highlighted the great potential of emerging CNNS luminophor in developing highly sensitive and smart quality self-testable ECL sensing systems using a sandwiched configuration for early disease diagnosis, treatment, and management.

Abstract
Highly selective probes hybridize only to fully complementary DNA or RNA sequences and, therefore, often fail to recognize mutated viral genomes. Here we designed a probe that possesses two seemingly incompatible properties: it tolerates some point mutations in genome, while it remains selective towards others. An OR deoxyribozyme logic gate was designed to fluorescently report the sequences of enterovirus 71 (EV71) covering ∼90% of all known EV71 strains. Importantly, sequences of closely related coxsackieviruses that differed by single nucleotides were reliably differentiated in 7 out of 8 cases.

Abstract
Synthesis of mini-sized carbon nitride nanosheets (CNNSs) by traditional methods remains a challenge. Herein, size-tunable and uniform mini-sized CNNSs are synthesized by hydrothermal carbonization of a single polyethyleneimine (PEI) precursor. The as-obtained mini-sized CNNSs possess uniform size, good hydrophilicity and abundant nitrogen active sites, which not only exhibit double excitation- and pH-dependent fluorescence behaviors, but also two-photon excitation fluorescence. áThe resulting CNNSs display low toxicity and can be efficiently delivered into live cells for two-photon fluorescence imaging, offering great potential as fluorescence probes in biochemical applications.

Abstract
DNA-based computational hardware has attracted ever-growing attention due to its potential to be useful in the analysis of complex mixtures of biological markers. Here we report the design of self-assembling logic gates that recognize DNA inputs and assemble into crossover tiles when the output signal is high; the crossover structures disassemble to form separate DNA stands when the output is low. The output signal can be conveniently detected by fluorescence using a molecular beacon probe as a reporter. AND, NOT, and OR logic gates were designed. We demonstrate that the gates can connect to each other to produce other logic functions.

Abstract
Two-dimensional graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets (CNNSs) with planar graphene-like structure have stimulated increasingly research interest in recent years due to their unique physicochemical properties. CNNSs possess superior stability, high fluorescence quantum yield, low-toxicity, excellent biocompatibility, unique electroluminescent and photoelectrochemical properties, which make them appropriate candidates for biosensing. In this review, we first introduce the preparation and unique properties of CNNSs, with emphasis on their superior properties for biosensing. Then, recent advances of CNNSs in photoelectrochemical biosensing, electrochemiluminescence biosensing and fluorescence biosensing are highlighted. An additional attention is paid to the marriage of CNNSs and nucleic acids, which exhibits great potentials in both biosensing and intracellular imaging. Finally, current challenges and opportunities of this 2D material are outlined. Inspired by the unique properties of CNNSs and their advantages in biological applications, we expect that more attention will be drawn to this promising 2D material and extensive applications can be found in bioanalysis and diseases diagnosis.

Abstract
As an emerging semiconductor, graphite-phase polymeric carbon nitride (GPPCN) has drawn much attention not only in photocatalysis but also in optical sensors such as electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensing of metal ions. However, when the concentrations of interfering metal ions are several times higher than that of the target metal ion, it is almost impossible to distinguish which metal ion changes the ECL signals in real sample detection. Herein, we report that the dual-ECL signals could be actuated by different ECL reactions merely from GPPCN nanosheets at anodic and cathodic potentials, respectively. Interestingly, the different metal ions exhibited distinct quenching/enhancement of the ECL signal at different driven potentials, presumably ascribed to the diversity of energy-level matches between the metal ions and GPPCN nanosheets and catalytic interactions of the intermediate species in ECL reactions. On this basis, without any labeling and masking reagents, the accuracy and reliability of sensors based on the ECL of GPPCN nanosheets toward metal ions were largely improved; thus, the false-positive result caused by interferential metal ions could be effectively avoided. As an example, the proposed GPPCN ECL sensor with a detection limit of 1.13 nM was successfully applied for the detection of trace Ni(2+) ion in tap and lake water.
