Abstract
In this work, we have realized the strong anodic ECL emission of Ru(bpy)32+ at ionic liquid (N-butylpyridinium tetrafluoroborate) modified electrode without additional coreactant. Methylene blue (MB) could accept the energy of Ru(bpy)32+ ECL to construct resonance energy transfer (ECL-RET) system, leading to the decrease of ECL signal. In the presence of glucose oxidase, hydrogen peroxide generated from the oxidation process of glucose could oxidize MB and block the ECL-RET route, resulting in the recovery of ECL signal. As a consequence, the designed sensor showed outstanding performance for “signal-on” detection of glucose in the concentration range of 10 μM to 1 mM, and the detection limit was determined as 1.75 μM. Importantly, this study revealed new roles of ILs in the fabrication of coreactant-free ECL sensing, which might open up a promising route for the potential design and implement in clinical analysis.
