Abstract
Efficient and robust electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emitters are crucial for enhancing the ECL immunosensor sensitivity. This study introduces a novel ECL emitter, CoBIM/Cys, featuring a hierarchical core-shell structure. The core of the structure is created through the swift coordination between the sulfhydryl and carboxyl groups of l-cysteine (l-Cys) and cobalt ions (Co 2+ ), while the shell is constructed by sequentially coordinating benzimidazole (BIM) with Co 2+ . This design yields a greater specific surface area and a more intricate porous structure compared to CoBIM, markedly enhancing mass transfer and luminophore accessibility. Moreover, the l-Cys and Co 2+ core introduces Co-S and Co-O catalytic sites, which improve the catalytic decomposition of H 2 O 2 , leading to an increased production of hydroperoxyl radicals (OOH ). This mechanism substantially amplifies the ECL performance. Leveraging the competitive interaction between isoluminol and BIM for OOH during ECL emission, we developed a ratiometric immunosensor for cardiac troponin I (cTnI) detection. This immunosensor demonstrates a remarkably broad detection range (1 pg mL -1 to 10 ng mL -1 ), a low detection limit (0.4 pg mL -1 ), and exceptional reproducibility and specificity.
