Abstract
Facile evaluation of formation kinetics of key intermediate is crucial for a comprehensive understanding of electrochemical ammonia oxidation reaction (AOR) mechanisms and the design of efficient electrocatalysts. Currently, elucidating the formation kinetics of key intermediate associated with rate-determining step is still challenging. Herein, 4-phtalamide-N-(4'-methylcoumarin) naphthalimide (CF) is developed as a molecular probe to detect N2H4 intermediate during AOR via electrochemiluminescence (ECL) and further investigated the formation kinetics of N2H4 on Pt catalysts with different crystal planes. CF probe can selectively react with N2H4 to release ECL substance luminol. Thus, N2H4 intermediate as a key intermediate can be sensitively and selectively detected by ECL during AOR. For the first time, Pt(100) facet is discovered to exhibit faster N2H4 formation kinetics than Pt(111) facet, which is further confirmed by Density functional theory calculation and the finite element simulation. The AOR mechanism under the framework of Gerischer and Mauerer is further validated by examining N2H4 formation kinetics during the dimerization process (NH2 coupling). The developed ECL active probe and the discovered facet-dependent formation kinetics of key intermediates provide a promising new tool and strategy for the understanding of electrochemical AOR mechanisms and the design of efficient electrocatalysts.

Electrochemiluminescence quenching effect of Cu 2O towards flower-like ferric ion-doped g-C 3N 4 and its application for Cyfra21-1 immunosensing. Talanta 2024; 277:126321.

Abstract
In this article, ferric ion-doped floral graphite carbon nitride (Fe-CN-3, energy donor) was used to construct the substrate of the immunosensor and copper oxide nanocubes (Cu2O, energy acceptor) were taken as an efficient ECL quenching probe. A sandwich quench electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunosensor for soluble cytokeratin 19 fragment (Cyfra21-1) detection was preliminarily developed based on a novel resonant energy transfer donor-acceptor pair. Fe-CN-3, a carbon nitride that combines the advantages of metal ion doping as well as morphology modulation, is used in ECL luminophores to provide more excellent ECL performance, which makes a significant contribution to the application and development of carbon nitride in the field of ECL biosensors. The regular shape, high specific surface area and excellent biocompatibility of the quencher Cu2O nanocubes facilitate the labeling of secondary antibodies and the construction of sensors. Meanwhile, as an energy acceptor, the UV absorption spectrum of Cu2O can overlap efficiently with the energy donor's ECL emission spectrum, making it prone to the occurrence of ECL-RET and thus obtaining an excellent quenching effect. These merits of the donor-acceptor pair enable the sensor to have a wide detection range of 0.00005-100 ng/mL and a low detection limit of 17.4 fg/mL (S/N = 3), which provides a new approach and theoretical basis for the clinical detection of lung cancer.

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.

Abstract
For conventional potential-resolved ratiometric electrochemiluminescence (ECL) systems, the introduction of multiplex coreactants is imperative. However, the undesirable interactions between different coreactants inevitably affect analytical accuracy and sensitivity. Herein, through the coordination of aggregation-induced emission ligands with gadolinium cations, the self-luminescent metal-organic framework (Gd-MOF) is prepared and serves as a novel coreactant-free anodic ECL emitter. By the intercalation of [Ru(bpy)2dppz]2+ with light switch effect into DNA duplex, one high-efficiency cathodic ECL probe is obtained using K2S2O8 as a coreactant. In the presence of acetamiprid, the strong affinity between the target and its aptamer induces the release of [Ru(bpy)2dppz]2+, resulting in a decreasing cathode signal and an increasing anode signal owing to the ECL resonance energy transfer from Gd-MOF to [Ru(bpy)2dppz]2+. In this way, an efficient dual-signal ECL aptasensor is constructed for the ratiometric analysis of acetamiprid, exhibiting a remarkably low detection limit of 0.033 pM. Strikingly, by using only one exogenous coreactant, the cross interference from multiple coreactants can be eliminated, thus improving the detection accuracy. The developed high-performance ECL sensing platform is successfully applied to monitor the residual level of acetamiprid in real samples, demonstrating its potential application in the field of food security.

Abstract
Multiple analysis of miRNAs is essential for the early diagnosis and monitoring of diseases. Here, a programmable, multiplex, and sensitive approach was developed for one-pot detection of miRNAs by melting temperature encoded sequences and exponential isothermal amplification (E-EXPAR). In the presence of target miRNAs, the corresponding templates initiate the cycles of nicking and polymerization/displacement, generating numerous barcode strands with unique encoding sequences. Subsequently, generated barcode strands hybridize with fluorescent probes and quench the fluorophore by a triplet of G base through a photo-induced electron transfer mechanism. Finally, a melting curve analysis is performed to quantify miRNAs by calculating the rate of fluorescence change at the corresponding melting temperature. Based on this, miRNA-21, miRNA-9, and miRNA-122 were detected with the detection limits of 3.3 fM, 2.9 fM, and 1.7 fM, respectively. This E-EXPAR was also employed to simultaneously detect three miRNAs in biological samples, showing consistent results with RT-qPCR. Overall, this study provides a programmable and universal platform for multiplex analysis of miRNAs, and holds great promise as an alternative to the multiplex analysis in clinical diagnostics and prognostics for nucleic acid detection.

Abstract
Design of a ratiometric method is a promising pathway to improve the sensitivity and reliability of electrochemiluminescent (ECL) assay, for which the signals produced at two distinct potentials change reversely as it is applied to the target analyte. Herein, a biosensor for ECL assay of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was constructed by immobilizing porcine IgG for capturing MRSA onto an electrode that was precoated with β-cyclodextrin-conjugated luminol nanoparticles (β-CD-Lu NPs) as an anodic luminophore. MOF PCN 224 loaded with an atomically distributed Zn element (PCN 224/Zn) was conjugated with phage recombinant cellular-binding domain (CBD) to act as a cathodic luminophore for tracing MRSA. After the formation of the sandwich complex of β-CD-Lu NPs-porcine IgG/MRSA/PCN 224/Zn-CBD on the biosensor, two ECL reactions were triggered with cyclic voltammetry. The anodic process of the β-CD-Lu NPs-H2O2 system and the cathodic process of the PCN 224/Zn-S2O82- system competed to react with reactive oxygen species (ROS) for producing ECL emission, which led to a reverse change of the two signals. Meanwhile, the overlap of the β-CD-Lu NPs emission spectrum and PCN 224/Zn absorption spectrum effectively triggered ECL resonance energy transfer between the donor (β-CD-Lu NPs) and the acceptor (PCN 224/Zn). Thus, a ratiometric ECL method was proposed for assaying MRSA with a dual-mechanism-driven mode. The detection limit for assaying MRSA is as low as 12 CFU/mL. The biosensor was applied to assay MRSA in various biological samples with recoveries ranging from 84.9 to 111.3%.

Abstract
As a good biomarker to reflect the average level of blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is mainly used for long-term glycemic monitoring and risk assessment of complications in diabetic patients. Previous analysis methods for HbA1c usually require complex pretreatment processes and large-scale biochemical analyzers, which makes it difficult to realize the point-of-care testing (POCT) of HbA1c. In this work, we have proposed a three-electrode dry chemistry-based electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor and its self-contained automatic ECL analyzer. In this enzymatic biosensor, fructosyl amino-caid oxidase (FAOD) reacts with the hydrolysis product of HbA1c, and the produced hydrogen peroxide further reacts with luminol under the appropriate driving voltage, generating photons to realize the quantitative detection of HbA1c. Under optimized conditions, the biosensors have a good linear response to different concentrations of fructosyl valine (FV) ranging from 0.05 to 2 mM, with a limit of detection of 2 μM. The within-batch variation is less than 15%, and the biosensors still have 78% of the initial response after the accelerated aging test of 36 h at 37 °C. Furthermore, the recoveries for different concentrations of samples in whole blood were within 92.3-99.7%. These results illustrate that the proposed method has the potential for use in POCT of HbA1c.

Abstract
The reaction efficiency of surface-based DNA walker can directly affect the properties of a biosensor. Herein, three-dimensional (3D) DNAzyme walker were first fixed on the top of DNA tetrahedral scaffold to improve the immobilization efficiency. Ferrocene (Fc) that labeled at substrate strand ends effectively quenched the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) signal of Ru(bpy)2(cpaphen)2+, yielding the sensor in a "signal-off" state. Upon the addition of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), 3D DNAzyme walker was activated and fueled by Na+, accordingly releasing Fc and recovering the ECL signal of Ru(bpy)2(cpaphen)2+. Due to the high movement efficiency of such 3D DNAzyme walker, ultrasensitive detection of AFB1 was achieved in the range of 1.0 fg mL-1-10 ng mL-1, with a detection limit of 0.58 fg mL-1. Moreover, satisfactory results were obtained while detecting AFB1 in corn and peanut samples, suggesting it has a potential application in food safety analysis.

Abstract
A ratiometric electrochemiluminescence strategy using a single luminophore for accurate and sensitive biomolecule detection could be immensely valuable in bioanalysis. Herein, an ultrasensitive ratiometric electrochemiluminescence sensing system was fabricated using a self-enhanced luminophore with dual-signal emission for the detection of spermine. A nanocomposite was synthesized by the covalent attachment of N, N-diisopropylethylenediamine onto glutathione-protected Au-Ag bimetallic nanoclusters (DPEA-GSH@Au/Ag BNCs). The nanocomposite exhibited efficient intra-cluster charge transfer to produce strong anodic self-enhanced electrochemiluminescence emission at 0.8 V without external co-reactants. Interestingly, the DPEA@GSH@Au-Ag BNCs exhibited cathodic electrochemiluminescence emission upon the addition of the co-reactant potassium persulfate at -1.6 V, exhibiting stable and efficient dual-signal electrochemiluminescence emission features at a continuous potential window of -1.75 to 1.2 V. Thus, they were used to fabricate a single-luminophore electrochemiluminescence sensor with dual emission. The cathodic emission of the biosensor gradually increased with increasing concentrations of spermine, whereas the anodic electrochemiluminescence intensity remained almost constant, enabling the ratiometric detection of spermine. The fabricated biosensor, with an internal standard, significantly improved the accuracy and reliability of spermine detection in a wide concentration range of 0.85 pM-100 μM, with a low limit of detection of 0.12 pM (S/N = 3) under optimum conditions. This single-luminophore electrochemiluminescence sensing system could be used for the detection of spermine and could guide the construction of ratiometric electrochemiluminescence sensors in the future.

Abstract
Precision healthcare aims to improve patient health by integrating prevention measures with early disease detection for prompt treatments. For the delivery of preventive healthcare, cutting-edge diagnostics that enable early disease detection must be clinically adopted. Duplex-specific nuclease (DSN) is a useful tool for bioanalysis since it can precisely digest DNA contained in duplexes. DSN is commonly used in biomedical and life science applications, including the construction of cDNA libraries, detection of microRNA, and single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) recognition. Herein, following the comprehensive introduction to the field, we highlight the clinical applicability, multi-analyte miRNA, and SNP clinical assays for disease diagnosis through large-cohort studies using DSN-based fluorescent methods. In fluorescent platforms, the signal is produced based on the probe (dyes, TaqMan, or molecular beacon) properties in proportion to the target concentration. We outline the reported fluorescent biosensors for SNP detection in the next section. This review aims to capture current knowledge of the overlapping miRNAs and SNPs' detection that have been widely associated with the pathophysiology of cancer, cardiovascular, neural, and viral diseases. We further highlight the proficiency of DSN-based approaches in complex biological matrices or those constructed on novel nano-architectures. The outlooks on the progress in this field are discussed.

Abstract
The detection of multiple biomarkers is of great significance to the accurate diagnosis of diseases. Herein, in this work, we constructed an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) cascade amplification platform for dual acute myocardial infarction (AMI)-related microRNA detection. The Zn2+-dependent DNAzyme digestion reaction initiated by miR-133a and the duplex-specific nuclease (DSN) cleavage circuit initiated by miR-499 were carried out independently to form a fuel hairpin DNA and active initiator strand, respectively, to trigger a hybridization chain reaction, which constituted a two-input-regulated "AND" logic circuit based on single ECL signal output. The use of single signal probe (Ru(bpy)32+) avoided the time-consuming and costly process of multiple signal molecule labeling or modification. The independent operation of the DNAzyme digestion reaction and DSN-assisted target recycling improved the detection efficiency of the system. In addition, the detection of each miRNA had undergone a cascade amplification process, which improved the detection sensitivity for each target. Furthermore, benefitting from the strong complexation of EDTA with Zn2+ and the flexible design of DNA sequences, the two-input "AND" logic gate was extended to a four-input "INHIBIT-AND-INHIBIT" concatenated logic circuit, which broadens the application of the ECL method in logic gates. We anticipate that this cascading amplification strategy can be widely applied in accurate diagnosis of AMI and the construction of ECL-based logic devices.

Abstract
A novel ratiometric electrochemiluminescence (ECL) system based on gold nanostars (AuNSs) support was constructed for the determination of hypotonicity-induced ATP release from HepG2 cells. AuNS@Lu nanoprobe was used as anodic luminophore and K2S2O8 as cathodic luminophore as well as anodic co-reactant. AuNS with the large specific surface was adopted to adsorb plentiful luminol to form solid-state probe and as affinity support to immobilize ATP aptamer (Apt). The obtained nanocomposite (Apt-AuNS@Lu) generated a strong ECL signal at + 0.4 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) with co-reactant K2S2O8, because of excellent conductivity and catalytic activity of AuNS. Furthermore, graphene oxide was reduced onto indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes to facilitate the electron transfer. Following, polydopamine (PDA) film was formed via self-polymerization, improving stability and adhesion of the electrode surface. To immobilize ATP capture aptamer (AptC), abounding AuNSs were attached to RGO/PDA surface. When the sensor was incubated in the mixture solution of Apt-AuNS@Lu and target ATP, the ECL signal of Apt-AuNS@Lu increased with the increase of ATP concentration, meanwhile, the signal of K2S2O8 declined. The ratio of the two luminophores was used for the quantitative determination of ATP. The linear range was 5 to 250 nM, and the limit of detection was 1.4 nM at (3σ)/S. The method was successfully applied to analyze ATP release from HepG2 cells stimulated by 0.45% NaCl hypotonic solution. The results showed that the release kinetics profile of ATP had a sigmoidal shape with rapid release within 10 min and then slowed. Compared to the isotonic groups, the intracellular ATP concentration was 3.7 ± 0.3 µM (n = 3) decreasing by 40.3% and the extracellular was 23.4 ± 1.2 nM (n = 3) increasing by 9.2 times in the hypotonicity for 10 min, which showed ATP release from cells and good agreement with commercial ELISA test. The proposed strategy would be beneficial to broadening application of ECL technology in studying cell biological functions.

Abstract
This work presents a novel signal amplification strategy for electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor based on liposome-assisted chemical redox cycling for in situ formation of Au nanoparticles (Au NPs) on TiO2 nanotubes (TiO2 NTs) electrode. The system was exemplified by ascorbic acid (AA)-loaded liposome, the redox cycling of AA utilizing tris (2-carboxyethyl) phosphine (TCEP) as reductant, and the use of Au nanoclusters (Au NCs)/TiO2 NTs as working electrode to implement the ECL detection of prostate specific antigen (PSA). Specifically, the AA-loaded liposomes were used as tags to label the captured PSA through a sandwich immunoreaction. After the lysate of the liposome was transferred onto the interface of Au NCs/TiO2 NTs in the presence of Au3+ and TECP, the chemical redox cycling was triggered. In the cycling, Au3+ was directly reduced in situ by AA to form Au NPs on Au NCs/TiO2 NTs electrode, whereas the oxidation product of AA was reduced by TCEP to regenerate AA. The large loading capacity of the liposome and chemical redox cycling resulted in the incomplete reduction of the Au NCs to Au NPs on the TiO2 NTs electrode, enhancing the ECL intensity greatly. The multiple signal amplification strategy achieved an ultrasensitive detection for PSA with a detection limit down to 6.7 × 10-15 g mL-1 and a wide linear concentration range from 1.0 × 10-14 to 1.0 × 10-8 g mL-1. It is believed that this work is anticipated to extend the employment of advanced chemical redox cycling reaction in the field of ECL bioassays.

Abstract
Myocardial miRNAs in peripheral blood are closely related to the pathogenic process of myocardial infarction. Rapid identification and accurate quantification of myocardial miRNAs are of great significance to clinical interventions for treating cardiovascular lesions. Therefore, a ratiometric electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor integrating DNAzyme with a resonance energy transfer (RET) system was designed to detect myocardial miRNA. The dual-signal system was composed of rA marked substrate strand functionalized CdTe quantum dots (QDs) as reductive-oxidative (R-O) emitters and Cy5-labeled strand-functionalized Ru(bpy)32+-filled silica nanoparticles (RuSi NPs) as oxidative-reductive (O-R) emitters. In the presence of target miRNA, DNAzyme was activated to cut substrate strands on the CdTe QDs and release triggers for opening hairpin probes. Then, the Cy5 molecule-labeled hairpin DNA on the RuSi NPs was opened to introduce Cy5 molecules and RuSi NPs into the system. The R-O ECL was quenched by ECL-RET between CdTe QDs and Cy5 molecules and the O-R ECL was introduced by the RuSi NPs. In this way, based on the simultaneous changing of the ECL signal, the dual-potential dynamic signal ratiometric ECL sensing platform was developed. By measuring the ratio of O-R ECL signal to R-O ECL signal, the concentration of miRNA-499 was accurately quantified in the range of 10 fM to 10 nM, and the detection limit was as low as 2.44 fM (S/N = 3). This DNAzyme guided dual-potential ratiometric ECL method provides a sensitive and reliable method for myocardial miRNA detection, and it has great potential in clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
It remains a great challenge to develop effective strategies for improving the weak cathodic electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) of the luminol-dissolved O2 system. Interface modulation between metal and supports is an attractive strategy to improve oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity. Therefore, the design of electrocatalysts via interface modulation would provide new opportunities for the ECL amplification involving reactive oxygen species (ROSs). Herein, we have fabricated an Ag single-atom catalyst with an oxygen-bridged interface (Ag-O-Co) through the electrodeposition of Ag on a CoAl layered double hydroxide (LDH) modified indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode (Ags/LDH/ITO). Interestingly, it was found that the cathodic ECL intensity of the luminol-dissolved O2 system at the Ags/LDH/ITO electrode was extraordinarily enhanced in comparison with those at bare ITO and other Ag nanoparticle-based electrodes. The enhanced ECL performances of the Ags/LDH/ITO electrode were attributed to the increasing amounts of ROSs by electrocatalytic ORR in the Ag-O-Co interface. The electron redistribution of Ag and Co bimetallic sites could accelerate electron transfer, promote the adsorption of O2, and sufficiently activate O2 through a four-electron reaction pathway. Finally, the luminol cathodic ECL intensity was greatly improved. Our findings can provide inspiration for revealing the interface effects between metal and supports, and open up a new avenue to improve the luminol cathodic ECL.

Abstract
The classic and most widely used co-reactant electrochemiluminescence (ECL) reaction of tris(2,2'-bipyridine)ruthenium(ii) ([Ru(bpy)3]2+) and tri-n-propylamine is enhanced by an order of magnitude by fac-[Ir(sppy)3]3- (where sppy = 5'-sulfo-2-phenylpyridinato-C 2,N), through a novel 'redox mediator' pathway. Moreover, the concomitant green emission of [Ir(sppy)3]3-* enables internal standardisation of the co-reactant ECL of [Ru(bpy)3]2+. This can be applied using a digital camera as the photodetector by exploiting the ratio of R and B values of the RGB colour data, providing superior sensitivity and precision for the development of low-cost, portable ECL-based analytical devices.

Abstract
Fast and effective detection of epidemics is the key to preventing the spread of diseases. In this work, we constructed a dual-wavelength ratiometric electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor based on entropy-driven and bipedal DNA walker cycle amplification strategies for detection of the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) gene of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The entropy-driven cyclic amplification reaction was started by the SARS-CoV-2 RdRp gene to generate a bandage. The bandage could combine with two other single-stranded S1 and S2 to form a bipedal DNA walker to create the following cycle reaction. After the bipedal DNA walker completed the walking process, the hairpin structures at the top of the DNA tetrahedrons (TDNAs) were removed. Subsequently, the PEI-Ru@Ti3C2@AuNPs-S7 probes were used to combine with the excised hairpin part of TDNAs on the surface of Au-g-C3N4, and the signal change was realized employing electrochemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (ECL-RET). By combining entropy-driven and DNA walker cycle amplification strategy, the ratiometric ECL biosensor exhibited a limit of detection (LOD) as low as 7.8 aM for the SARS-CoV-2 RdRp gene. As a result, detecting the SARS-CoV-2 RdRp gene in human serum still possessed high recovery so that the dual-wavelength ratiometer biosensor could be used in early clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
Herein, a novel and facile dual-wavelength ratiometric electrochemiluminescence-resonance energy transfer (ECL-RET) sensor for hydrogen sulfide (H2S) detection was constructed based on the interaction between S2- and Cd2+-doped g-C3N4 nanosheets (NSs). Cd2+-doped g-C3N4 NSs exhibited a strong ECL emission at 435 nm. In the presence of H2S, CdS was formed in situ on g-C3N4 NSs by the adsorption of S2- and Cd2+, generating another ECL emission at 515 nm. Furthermore, the overlapping of the absorption spectrum of the formed CdS and the ECL emission spectrum of g-C3N4 NSs led to a feasible RET, thus quenching the ECL intensity from g-C3N4 at 435 nm. Through an ECL decrease at 435 nm and an increase at 515 nm, a dual-wavelength ratiometric ECL-RET system for H2S was designed. The sensor exhibited a lower detection limit of 0.02 μM with a wide linear range of 0.05-100.0 μM. In addition, the applicability of the method was validated by plasma sample analysis with a linear range of 80.0-106.0%. We believe that such a proposal would provide new insight into advanced dual-wavelength ECL ratiometric assays.

Abstract
The development of biosensors for biologically important substances with ultralow content such as microRNA is of great significance. Herein, a novel surface plasmon-enhanced electrogenerated chemiluminescence-based aptasensor was developed for ultrasensitive sensing of microRNA by using nitrogen vacancy-rich carbon nitride nanosheets as effective luminophores and gold nanoparticles as plasmonic sources. The introduction of nitrogen vacancies improved the electrochemiluminescence behavior due to improved conductance and electrogenerated chemiluminescence activity. The introduction of plasmonic gold nanoparticles increased the electrochemiluminescence signal intensity by more than eightfold. The developed surface plasmon-enhanced electrogenerated chemiluminescence aptasensor exhibited good selectivity, ultrasensitivity, excellent stability, and reproducibility for the determination of microRNA-133a, with a dynamic linear range of 1 aM to 100 pM and a limit of detection about 0.87 aM. Moreover, the surface plasmon-enhanced electrogenerated chemiluminescence sensor obtained a good recovery when detecting the content of microRNA in actual serum.

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
Developing a coreactant-free ratiometric electrochemiluminescence (ECL) strategy based on a single luminophore to achieve more accurate and sensitive microRNA (miRNA) detection is highly desired. Herein, utilizing zinc-metal organic frameworks (Zn-MOFs) as the single luminophore, a novel dual-potential ratiometric ECL biosensor was constructed for ultrasensitive detection of miRNA-133a. The as-prepared Zn-MOFs exhibited simultaneous cathode and anode ECL emission. Furthermore, the Zn-MOFs were confirmed to be a multichannel ECL sensing platform with excellent annihilation and coreactant ECL emission. The corresponding ECL behaviors were investigated in detail. Benefiting from the hybridization chain reaction (HCR) amplification technology, N,N-diethylethylenediamine (DEAEA) was modified on hairpin DNA, and the gained products loaded with quantities of DEAEA enhanced the anodic ECL intensity of Zn-MOFs. In the presence of miRNA-133a, the ECL intensity ratio of anode to cathode (Ia/Ic) was significantly increased, which realized the ultrasensitive ratiometric detection of miRNA-133a. In addition, without an exogenous coreactant, the biosensor revealed superb accuracy and stability. Under optimal conditions, the detection linearity of miRNA-133a was from 50 aM to 50 fM with a low detection limit of 35.8 aM (S/N = 3). This is the first work to use Zn-MOFs as a single emitter for reliable ratiometric ECL bioanalysis, which provides a new perspective for fabricating a ratiometric ECL biosensor platform.

Abstract
The early and rapid diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is of great significance to its treatment. Here, we developed an electrochemiluminescence biosensor based on an entropy-driven strand displacement reaction (ETSD) and a tetrahedral DNA nanostructure (TDN) for the detection of the potential AMI biomarker microRNA-133a. In the presence of the target, numerous Ru(bpy)32+-labeled signal probes (SP) were released from the preformed three-strand complexes through the process of ETSD. The ETSD reaction cycle greatly amplified the input signal of the target. The released SP could be captured by the TDN-engineered biosensing interface to generate a strong ECL signal. The rigid structure of TDN could significantly improve the hybridization efficiency. With the assistant of double amplification of TDN and ETSD, the developed biosensor has a good linear response ranging from 1 fM to 1 nM for microRNA-133a, and the detection limit is 0.33 fM. Additionally, the constructed biosensor has excellent repeatability and selectivity, demonstrating that the biosensor possesses a great application prospect in clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
An effective and precise electrochemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (ECL-RET), including the efficient regulation over the proximity of a donor and an acceptor and the reliable stimuli responsive as well as the avoidance of undesirable probes leakage, etc., is significant for the development of an accurate and sensitive ECL detection method; yet, the current literature in documentation involves only a limited range of such ECL-RET systems. Herein, we propose an ECL-RET strategy with dually quenched ultralow background signals and a dual-stimuli responsive, accurate signal output for the ultrasensitive and reliable detection of anatoxin-a (ATX-a). The dual quenching is accomplished by an integrated ECL-RET probe of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) encapsulated into Ru(bpy)32+ (Ru-MOF) (donor) coated with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) shell (acceptor 1) and close proximity with DNA-ferrocene (Fc) (acceptor 2). Multistimuli responsive DNAzyme facilitated the accurate signal switch by both target ATX-a and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Because of the specific recognition of the aptamer toward ATX-a, an intricate design of the DNA sequence enabled the exposure of the Ag+-dependent DNAzyme sequence and H2O2 in situ generated Ag+ triggering a catalytic cleavage reaction to freely release the two ECL-RET energy acceptors, thus switching the ECL signal significantly and achieving ultrasensitive detection. It is noteworthy that AgNPs are key in this ECL-RET strategy, serving both as the gate-keepers for avoiding ECL probes leakage and also the ECL energy acceptors, and mostly importantly serving as the redox substrate for the subsequent DNAzyme catalytic signal switch. The proposed ECL-RET aptasensor for ATX-a detection displayed splendid monitoring performance with a quite low detection limit of 0.00034 mg mL-1. This sensor not only led to the development of a dual-quenching ECL-RET system but also provided meaningful multistimuli responsive ECL biosensing platform construction, which shows a promising application prospect in complicated sample analysis.

Abstract
It is an advantageous way to quickly identify the toxicity of Bacillus anthracis (B. anthracis) by detecting the transcription product of the atxA gene. Herein, a novel ultrasensitive ratiometric electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor with competitive mechanism and double amplified signal ways was proposed for detecting the atxA mRNA. The K2S2O8 was used as cathodic emitter and silver metal-organic gels (AgMOG) was used as ECL enhancer. The AgMOG could accelerate the electro-catalytic reduction of S2O82- to SO4˙-, which reacted with dissolved oxygen, resulting in strong cathodic ECL. Meanwhile, luminol was encapsulated in liposome as anodic amplified signal labels and the luminol anion radical also reacted with dissolved oxygen to create the anodic ECL emission. We immobilized luminol-encapsulated liposomes on the surface of AgMOG through the hybridization of DNA and mRNA. This would provide a competitive mechanism involving dissolved oxygen between K2S2O8 and luminol. Benefiting from the competitive mechanism and amplified signal ways, this ratiometric biosensor achieved a wide linear relationship range from 10 to 300 fM with a low limit of detection (8.13 fM). Considering the accessible operation, favorable performance, and high universality of this strategy, this work may be used to analyze other mRNAs of bacteria.

Abstract
Electroluminescence (ECL) has been used in extensive applications ranging from bioanalysis to clinical diagnosis owing to its simple device requirement, low background, high sensitivity, and wide dynamic range. Nucleic acid is a significant theme in ECL bioanalysis. The inherent versatile selective molecular recognition of nucleic acids and their programmable self-assembly make it desirable for the robust construction of nanostructures. Benefiting from their unique structures and physiochemical properties, ECL biosensing based on nucleic acids has experienced rapid growth. This review focuses on recent applications of nucleic acids in ECL sensing systems, particularly concerning the employment of nucleic acids as molecular recognition elements, signal amplification units, and sensing interface schemes. In the end, an outlook of nucleic acid-based ECL biosensing will be provided for future developments and directions. We envision that nucleic acids, which act as an essential component for both bioanalysis and clinical diagnosis, will provide a new thinking model and driving force for developing next-generation sensing systems.

Talanta 2021; 234:122622.

Abstract
The hybridization and enzymolysis reactions for nucleic acid detection were carried out on the chip surface in the traditional surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensors. Herein, we proposed an innovative method for microRNA (miRNA) detection in which the hybridization-enzymolysis recycling reactions were performed in solution. Duplex-specific nuclease (DSN) and streptavidin-modified gold nanoparticles (SA-AuNPs) were employed for enhancing the assay sensitivity. In the absence of miRNA, the biotinylated DNA probe (bio-DNA-bio, biotin tags at both the 3' and 5' termini of DNA) was attached to the SA-modified chip through the SA-biotin binding, allowing the capture of SA-AuNPs with the same interaction. As a result, a larger SPR signal was attained. However, in the presence of miRNA, bio-DNA-bio hybridized with miRNA was digested by DSN. In this process, the miRNA strand remained intact and participated in the next hybridization-enzymolysis recycling process. Thus, one miRNA could promote the hydrolysis of many bio-DNA-bio probes and allow the generation of numerous bio-DNA fragments. Meanwhile, the produced bio-DNA competed with the undigested bio-DNA-bio to bind SA on the chip surface. The digestion of bio-DNA-bio and the competitive binding between bio-DNA-bio and bio-DNA led to the attachment of fewer SA-AuNPs and then smaller SPR signals. The change in SPR signal at the concentration as low as 1 fM miRNA has been readily determined. The strategy possessed the advantageous properties of simple operation, fast response, high sensitivity and excellent specificity, serving as a viable means for the fabrication of novel sensing platforms.

Abstract
An electrochemiluminescence sensor was proposed for detection of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) based on dual-amplification strategy of ferrocenecarboxylic acid@MgAl layered double hydroxides (Fc@MgAl-LDH) and NH2-MIL-101(Fe). An (Au NPs/Fc@MgAl-LDH)n multilayer nanofilm was fabricated by a layer-by-layer self-assembly between positively charged Fc@MgAl-LDH nanosheets and negatively charged Au NPs. The multilayer nanofilms acted as nanocarriers for antibody loading and enhancers to catalyze H2O2 decomposition. NH2-MIL-101(Fe) promoted the production of reactive oxygen species due to peroxidase-mimicking activity and increased immobilization of antibodies. This sensor showed a linear detection range of 0.05 pg mL-1 to 50 ng mL-1 with a low detection limit of 0.034 pg mL-1. Moreover, the detection results from this sensor were consistent with data collected from a commercial immunoassay analyzer. The sensor had significant potential for PSA detection in clinical diagnostics.

Enhanced electrochemiluminescence ratiometric cytosensing based on surface plasmon resonance of Au nanoparticles and nanosucculent films. Biosens Bioelectron 2021; 189:113367.

Abstract
Ramos cells are human Burkitt's lymphoma cells, which are a kind of cancer cells to facilitate the monitoring of the relevant biological processes of cancers. Sensitive and accurate detection of Ramos cells using emerging ratiometric ECL biosensing technology shows increasing importance, however, the target analytes of current ratiometric ECL biosensors are mainly limited to DNA/RNA or proteins. In this study, we proposed a dual-potential ratiometric sensing strategy for the electrochemiluminescence detection of Ramos cells based on two types of electrochemiluminescence (ECL)-responding molecular. Au nanosucculent films (AuNFs) were electrodeposited on the fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) electrode to increase the effective area of the electrode for more efficient assembly of DNA and effectively improving the conductivity of the sensing interfaces. In the presence of Ramos cells, aptamers capped with Au@luminol would conjugate with Ramos cells and then remove from AuNFs, accompanying the decrease of ECL signal from Au@luminol. Then, Au-DNA was captured and alternately hybridized with DNA-modified CdS nanocrystals (NCs) on the surface of AuNFs with the formation of a super reticulate structure. The reticulate structure not only raised another identified ECL signal from CdS NCs but also greatly promoted its ECL intensity from the surface plasmon resonance originating from Au NPs. The value of log (ECLCdS/ECLluminol) and the logarithm of the number of cells exhibit considerable linear relation ranging from 80 to 8 × 105 cells mL-1 with a low detection limit of 20 cells mL-1 (S/N = 3). The selectivity and specificity of this dual-potential ECL sensor showed good performance and indicated considerable promise in avoiding false-positive results in detection.

Abstract
Aggregation-induced emission (AIE) active Pdots are attractive nanomaterials applied in electrochemiluminescence (ECL) fields, while the irreversible redox reaction of these Pdots is a prevailing problem, resulting in instability of ECL emission. Herein, we first designed and synthesized an AIE-active Pdot with reversible redox property, which contains a tetraphenylethene derivate and benzothiadiazole (BT) to achieve stable ECL emission. BT has a good rigid structure with excellent electrochemical behaviors, which is beneficial for avoiding the destruction of the conjugated structure as much as possible during the preparation of Pdots, thus maintaining good redox property. The tetraphenylethene derivate, as a typical AIE-active moiety, provides a channel for highly efficient luminescence in the aggregated states. The Pdots exhibited reversible and quasi-reversible electrochemical behaviors during cathodic and anodic scanning, respectively. The stable annihilation, reductive-oxidative, and oxidative-reductive ECL signals were observed. Subsequently, we constructed an ultrasensitive ECL biosensor based on the oxidative-reductive ECL mode for the detection of miRNA-21 with a detection limit of 32 aM. This work provides some inspiration for the future design of ECL materials featuring AIE-active property and stable ECL emission.

Abstract
Lectins are highly specific binding proteins for glycoproteins which widely exist in living organisms, playing a vital role in exploring the biological evolution process, such as cellular proliferation, differentiation, carcinogenesis and apoptosis. Therefore, the content monitoring of lectin becomes particularly significant and urgent in the bioanalytical application. In this work, we fabricated an aptasensor, majorly capitalizing the eminent affinity between sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin (Ig)-like lectin 5 (Siglec-5) and nucleic acids aptamer (K19), with nontoxic MoS2@Au nanocomposites as electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emitters based on exonuclease III (Exo III)-powered DNA walker for the bioassays of Siglec-5. The DNA track was constructed on the emitters' surface, providing a reliable platform for the DNA walker's autonomous move. In the assay, the primer DNA in the DNA duplex was replaced by Siglec-5 due to the aptamer interactions and repeatedly released to participate in the movement of the DNA walker, further triggering cascade signal amplification. Finally, our aptasensor indicates significant potential for assays of Siglec-5 with a detection limit of 8.9 pM.

Abstract
An electrochemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (ECL-RET) immunosensor was developed based on the potential-resolved technology for the simultaneous detection of neuron-specific enolase (NSE) and the cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA21-1). The absorption spectrum of gold nanorods (AuNRs) perfectly overlapped with the ECL spectra of SnS2@Pt and Ru(bpy)32+/Zn-MOF, so they exhibited an excellent ECL-RET effect with high efficiency. Zn-MOF possesses a large surface area, which allows for the loading of Ru(bpy)32+. This results in a signal probe of Ru(bpy)32+/Zn-MOF/Ab1 showing a strong ECL emission. Simultaneously, owing to the excellent electronic conductivity of PtNPs, they can increase the electron transfer rate between S2O82- and tin disulfide nanoflowers (SnS2NFs). Hence, the ECL signal of SnS2NFs can be enhanced. Under the optimal conditions, the linear range for NSE is 0.2 pg mL-1-20 ng mL-1 with a detection limit of 79 fg mL-1. The linear range for CYFRA21-1 is 1.25 pg mL-1-12.5 ng mL-1 with a detection limit of 0.43 pg mL-1. The proposed immunosensor can be used for the sensitive simultaneous detection of NSE and CYFRA21-1 in human serum and has promise for clinical diagnostics.

Abstract
As a nondegradable environmental pollutant, lead ion (Pb2+) has been proven to be deleterious for environmental and health. Conveniently, quickly and accurately on-site detection of Pb2+ is of paramount importance. Herein, an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) assay protocol using two-dimensional black phosphorus (2D BP) nanoflakes as new ECL emitter for highly sensitive and selective trace Pb2+ was designed on the basis of Pb2+ induced ECL resonance energy transfer (ECL-RET) between 2D BP nanoflakes and Ag/AgCl nanocubes. Anodic green ECL emission of BP nanoflakes without any coreactants was achieved. It is noteworthy that the possible ECL mechanism and the influence of coreactants on the ECL behaviour of BP nanoflakes were further investigated. Benefitting from the well match between the ECL emission spectrum of BP nanoflakes (∼510 nm) and the absorption spectrum of Ag/AgCl nanocubes (200-300 nm and 400-700 nm), effective energy transfer yielded. The introduction of Pb2+ would lead to the detachment of Ag/AgCl nanocubes then result in an enhanced ECL emission. Based on this, the proposed method could accurately quantify the Pb2+ in the range from 0.5 pM to 5 nM, which exhibited comparative performance to previous work. Furthermore, this study presents the example of employing 2D BP nanoflakes as ECL emitters and constructing a coreactant-free ECL sensing platform, which might open up a promising route for the potential design and implement in clinical analysis.

Abstract
In virtue of the inherent molecular recognition and programmability, DNA has recently become the most promising for high-performance biosensors. The rationally engineered nucleic acid architecture will be very advantageous to hybridization efficiency, specificity, and sensitivity. Herein, a robust and split-mode photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensor for miRNA-196a was developed based on an entropy-driven tetrahedral DNA (EDTD) amplifier coupled with superparamagnetic nanostructures. The DNA tetrahedron structure features in rigidity and structural stability that contribute to obtain precise identification units and specific orientations, improving the hybridization efficiency, sensitivity, and selectivity of the as-designed PEC biosensor. Further, superparamagnetic Fe3O4@SiO2@CdS particles integrated with DNA nanostructures are beneficial for the construction of a split-mode, highly selective, and reliable PEC biosensor. Particularly, the enzyme- and hairpin-free EDTD amplifier eliminates unnecessary interference from the complex secondary structure of pseudoknots or kissing loops in typical hairpin DNAs, significantly lowers the background noise, and improves the detection sensitivity. This PEC biosensor is capable of monitoring miRNA-196a in practical settings with additional advantages of efficient electrode fabrication, stability, and reproducibility. This strategy can be extended to various miRNA assays in complex biological systems with excellent performance.

Abstract
A ratiometric electrochemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (ECL-RET) platform depended on novel dye BODIPY derivatives was proposed for rapid detection of lactoferrin. This ECL-RET platform is composed of aptamer decorated BODIPY composites and C60@BSA, in which BODIPY derivative is the ECL probe and can generate significant resonance energy transfer with K2S2O8. BODIPY derivative and K2S2O8 are used as built-in reference signal and calibration signal respectively to eliminate background signal and abnormal change signal by double signal self-calibration process. At the same time, C60, as the accelerator of K2S2O8, can effectively increase the ECL signal and further transfer as much energy as possible to BODIPY derivative. Under optimal conditions, the constructed ECL-RET platform exhibited sensitive detection of lactoferrin in the wide linear range of 10-4- 850 ng/mL with a LOD of 42 fg/mL. Meanwhile, the proposed ECL-RET aptasensor demonstrated superior stability, specificity and reproducibility, displaying favorable application value in practical diagnosis of this method.
