Abstract
A water-induced electron-deficient dye, the supramolecule perylene diimide (PDI), has been identified recently. PDI possesses advantages such as easy reduction, nontoxicity, low cost, and simple preparation, making it a promising candidate for electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensing platforms. In this study, a series of PDI supramolecular systems with morphological changes were prepared by utilizing water molecules to induce PDI self-assembly. This method improves the π-π stacking interactions between PDI molecules and effectively mitigates the aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) effect on the luminous efficiency of the coplanar polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon PDI. It is noteworthy that excellent ECL emission performance of the PDI supramolecular system was observed at -0.4 V. This low excitation potential aids in preserving antigen-antibody bioactivity and ensures accurate identification of the immune response. As a proof of concept, a dual-mode immunosensing platform for carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) detection was constructed using an enzymatic biocatalytic precipitation (EBCP) strategy. The dual-mode immunosensor exhibited good detection performance in the concentration range of 0.001-80 ng·mL-1, presenting an advanced bioprotective analytical method for CEA detection.
