Supramolecular assembly-induced electrochemiluminescence enhancement of gold nanoclusters for hemoglobin detection
JOURNAL OF MATERIALS CHEMISTRY B(2024)
Abstract
Gold nanoclusters (Au NCs) with excellent optical properties and biocompatibility have become one of the most promising electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emitters. However, the low efficiency and poor stability of Au NCs restrict their applications in ECL. Herein, by supramolecular assembly of l-arginine (Arg) and 4-hydroxy-2-mercapto-6-methylpyrimidine (MTU) on the surface of Au NCs, Arg/MTU-Au NCs with enhanced ECL efficiency and stability were prepared. Compared with the MTU-stabilized Au NCs (MTU-Au NCs), the ECL efficiency of Arg/MTU-Au NCs increased by 24.8 times. As a proof-of-concept, a sensitive biosensing platform was constructed for sensitive detection of hemoglobin (Hb) in urine using Arg/MTU-Au NCs as ECL emitters. The proposed ECL detection platform provides a feasible strategy for the detection of biomarkers in urine and has broad application prospects in disease screening and clinical marker detection. Based on ligand assembly between l-arginine and 4-hydroxy-2-mercapto-6-methylpyrimidine, gold nanoclusters with enhanced electrochemiluminescence efficiency and stability were prepared for the detection of hemoglobin in urine samples.
