Abstract

The electrogenerated chemiluminescent (ECL) behavior of hemin at a platinum electrode in the alkaline solution has been investigated in detail. Under the optimum conditions the linear response range of hemin is 1.0×10 −5–1.0×10 −8 g ml −1, the detection limit was 1.0×10 −8 g ml −1, and the relative standard derivation for 1×10 −7 g ml −1 hemin was 2.8%. It has been also found that hemin would catalyze the ECL of lucigenin at a platinum electrode in a neutral solution in the presence of hydrogen peroxide, the catalytic ECL intensity was linear with the concentration of hemin in the range of 1.0×10 −14–1.0×10 −10 g ml −1. IgG labeled with hemin was used to examine the ECL catalytic activity of hemin after conjugating to protein, and the results showed that hemin retained ECL catalytic activity when conjugated to protein.
