Abstract
Cellular heterogeneity, especially in some important diseased cells like tumor cells, acts as an invisible driver for disease development like cancer progression in the tumor ecosystem, contributing to differences in the macroscopic and microscopic detection of disease lesions like tumors. Traditional analysis techniques choose group information masked by the mean as the analysis sample, making it difficult to achieve precise diagnosis and target treatment, on which could be shed light via the single-cell level determination/bioanalysis. Hence, in this article we have reviewed the special characteristic differences among various kinds of typical single-cell bioanalysis strategies and electrochemical techniques, and then focused on the recent advance and special bio-applications of electrochemiluminescence and micro-nano electrochemical sensing mediated in single-cell bioimaging & bioanalysis. Especially, we have summarized the relevant research exploration of the possibility to establish the in-situ single-cell electrochemical methods to detect cell heterogeneity through determination of specific biomolecules and bioimaging of some important biological processes. Eventually, this review has explored some important advances of electrochemical single-cell detection techniques for the real-time cellular bioimaging and diagnostics of some disease lesions like tumors. It raises the possibility to provide the specific in-situ platform to exploit the versatile, sensitive, and high-resolution electrochemical single-cell analysis for the promising biomedical applications like rapid tracing of some disease lesions or in vivo bioimaging for precise cancer theranostics.

Abstract
Recent years have witnessed the emergence of innovative analytical methods with high sensitivity and spatiotemporal resolution that allowed qualitative and quantitative analysis to be carried out at single-cell and subcellular levels. Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is a unique chemiluminescence of high-energy electron transfer triggered by electrical excitation. The ingenious combination of electrochemistry and chemiluminescence results in the distinct advantages of high sensitivity, a wide dynamic range and good reproducibility. Specifically, single-cell ECL (SCECL) analysis with excellent spatiotemporal resolution has emerged as a promising toolbox in bioanalysis for revealing individual cells' heterogeneity and stochastic processes. This review focuses on advances in SCECL analysis and bioimaging. The history and recent advances in ECL probes and strategies for system design are briefly reviewed. Subsequently, the latest advances in representative SCECL analysis techniques for bioassays, bioimaging and therapeutics are also highlighted. Then, the current challenges and future perspectives are discussed.

Abstract
Here, a dual-mode quenched electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunosensor based on PtPd@PDA was proposed. Among them, nitrogen-doped hydrazide conjugated carbon dots (NHCDs), as an ECL emitter and a donor of resonance energy transfer, were quenched by PtPd@PDA (receptor). At the same time, PDA in PtPd@PDA, as an oxygen radical scavenger, completed the further quenching of the ECL signal by consuming O2•- generated by the decomposition of co-reactant H2O2. The dual-mode quenching from the above two channels was achieved. In addition, compared with the traditional carbon quantum dots, NHCDs as ECL emitters had lower excitation potential. Moreover, a large number of amino groups provided by aminated MWCNTs could capture more antibodies while connecting with NHCDs. Under the optimum experimental conditions, taking aflatoxin B1 as the target, the proposed sensor with good specificity, stability, and reproducibility had good linearity when the concentration of AFB1 was 0.01-100 ng/mL, with the detection limit of 2.63 pg/mL (S/N = 3). This strategy provided more possibilities for the application of dopamine metal nanocomposites in electrochemiluminescence analysis and offered a new approach to detect AFB1.

Abstract
Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) bioanalysis has become increasingly important in various fields from bioanalysis to clinical diagnosis due to its outstanding merits, including low background signal, high sensitivity, and simple instrumentation. Quantum dots (QDs) are a significant theme in ECL bioanalysis since their excellent optical, electrochemical properties, and ease of functionalization endow them with versatile roles and new mechanisms of signal transduction in ECL. Herein, this review details recent advances of QDs-based ECL bioanalysis by using QDs as ECL emitters, coreactants, or ECL resonance energy transfer donors/acceptors, mainly focused on their optical and electrochemical properties and ECL reaction mechanism. In the end, we will discuss the current limitations and future developments in QDs ECL bioanalysis to address the requirement about selectivity, sensitivity, toxicity, and emerging applications.

Abstract
Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is the light production triggered by reactions at the electrode surface. Its intrinsic features based on a dual electrochemical/photophysical nature have made it an attractive and powerful method across diverse fields in applied and fundamental research. Herein, we review the combination of ECL with semiconductor (SC) materials presenting various typical dimensions and structures, which has opened new uses of ECL and offered exciting opportunities for (bio)sensing and imaging. In particular, we highlight this particularly rich domain at the interface between photoelectrochemistry, SC material chemistry and analytical chemistry. After an introduction to the ECL and SC fundamentals, we gather the recent advances with representative examples of new strategies to generate ECL in original configurations. Indeed, bulk SC can be used as electrode materials with unusual ECL properties or light-addressable systems. At the nanoscale, the SC nanocrystals or quantum dots (QDs) constitute excellent bright ECL nano-emitters with tuneable emission wavelengths and remarkable stability. Finally, the challenges and future prospects are discussed for the design of new detection strategies in (bio)analytical chemistry, light-addressable systems, imaging or infrared devices.

Abstract
Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is a powerful readout method for the development of (bio)sensors, whose performances depend on the electrode materials and the architecture of its surface. Herein, we demonstrate that the precise control of the sensing interface using the versatility of two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbides (Ti3C2TX MXene) leads to the enhancement of the ECL signal. This electrode material, which exhibits remarkable structural and electrochemical properties was decorated by the in situ formation of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) owing to the Ti reducibility. Then, a large amount of the luminophore, Ru(bpy)32+, was immobilized on Ti3C2TX MXene thanks to its unique negative charge and large specific surface area to obtain Ru-Ti3C2TX-AuNPs. The presented approach exploits the high catalytic activity and excellent conductivity of this 2D nanomaterial as illustrated by the enhanced ECL emission performance of the Ru-Ti3C2TX-AuNPs nanoprobes. Finally, DNA phosphorylated with polynucleotide kinase (PNK) was recognized efficiently by the chelation between Ti and phosphate group. A highly sensitive and selective ECL biosensor was developed for the detection of PNK and the screening of its inhibitors. A lower detection limit of 0.0002 U mL-1 and wide linear relationship ranged from 0.002 to 10 U mL-1 were obtained. Furthermore, the practicality of our method was tested in MCF-7 cell lysate, which opens enticing perspectives for future applications of Ti3C2TX materials in the ECL bioanalysis field.

Abstract
Rational design of electrochemiluminescence (ECL) reagents is essential for the development of ECL biosensors with superior performances. In this work, the assembly of tris(1,10-phenanthroline)ruthenium(II) [Ru(phen)32+] and tetrahedral chalcogenide nanoclusters of [Cd32S14(SC6H5)38]2- in the formation of complex nanoclusters (CdS-Ru) was developed, in which Ru(phen)32+ was uniformly encapsulated and dispersed at a molecular level in the chalcogenide nanocluster via multiple noncovalent interactions. It was observed that the promoted ECL emission was realized by the charge transfer between the tetrahedral CdS nanocluster and Ru(phen)32+ by the formation of the assembly complex, which was elucidated by cyclic voltammetry curves, ECL-potential curves, and in situ dynamic ECL spectra. Taking advantages of the facile charge transfer in the open framework CdS-Ru, a high ECL efficiency has been achieved with remarkable stability. Moreover, a solid-state ECL sensor based on the CdS-Ru modified electrode was fabricated for label-free detection of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity with a detection limit as low as 0.35 U/L and superior reproducibility. This solid-state ECL sensor also displayed favorable selectivity among various interferences and was applied for ALP activity analysis in human serum samples. These results implicated the potential applications of CdS-Ru for sensitive ECL analysis in complicated reaction systems and enlightened the rational design for self-enhanced and highly efficient ECL materials.

Abstract
Carbon dots (CDs), defined by their size of less than 10 nm, are a class of photoluminescent (PL) and electrochemiluminescent (ECL) nanomaterials that include a variety of carbon-based nanoparticles. However, the control of their properties, especially ECL, remains elusive and afflicted by a series of problems. Here, the authors report CDs that display ECL in water via coreactant ECL, which is the dominant mechanism in biosensing applications. They take advantage of a multicomponent bottom-up approach for preparing and studying the luminescence properties of CDs doped with a dye acting as PL and ECL probe. The dependence of luminescence properties on the surface chemistry is further reported, by investigating the PL and ECL response of CDs with surfaces rich in primary, methylated, or propylated amino groups. While precursors that contribute to the core characterize the PL emission, the surface states influence the efficiency of the excitation-dependent PL emission. The ECL emission is influenced by surface states from the organic shell, but states of the core strongly interact with the surface, influencing the ECL efficiency. These findings offer a framework of pre- and post-synthetic design strategies to improve ECL emission properties, opening new opportunities for exploring biosensing applications of CDs.

Abstract
This work depicts the original combination of electrochemiluminescence (ECL) and bipolar electrochemistry (BPE) to map in real-time the oxidation of silicon in microchannels. We fabricated model silicon-PDMS microfluidic chips, optionally containing a restriction, and monitored the evolution of the surface reactivity using ECL. BPE was used to remotely promote ECL at the silicon surface inside microfluidic channels. The effects of the fluidic design, the applied potential and the resistance of the channel (controlled by the fluidic configuration) on the silicon polarization and oxide formation were investigated. A potential difference down to 6 V was sufficient to induce ECL, which is two orders of magnitude less than in classical BPE configurations. Increasing the resistance of the channel led to an increase in the current passing through the silicon and boosted the intensity of ECL signals. Finally, the possibility of achieving electrochemical reactions at predetermined locations on the microfluidic chip was investigated using a patterning of the silicon oxide surface by etched micrometric squares. This ECL imaging approach opens exciting perspectives for the precise understanding and implementation of electrochemical functionalization on passivating materials. In addition, it may help the development and the design of fully integrated microfluidic biochips paving the way for development of original bioanalytical applications.

One-Step Preparation of Nitrogen-Doped Graphene Quantum Dots With Anodic Electrochemiluminescence for Sensitive Detection of Hydrogen Peroxide and Glucose. Front Chem 2021; 9:688358. [PMID: 34150720 PMCID: PMC8207508 DOI: 10.3389/fchem.2021.688358] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2021] [Accepted: 05/12/2021] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple and efficient synthesis of graphene quantum dots (GQDs) with anodic electrochemiluminescence (ECL) remains a great challenge. Herein, we present an anodic ECL-sensing platform based on nitrogen-doped GQDs (N-GQDs), which enables sensitive detection of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and glucose. N-GQDs are easily prepared using one-step molecular fusion between carbon precursor and a dopant in an alkaline hydrothermal process. The synthesis is simple, green, and has high production yield. The as-prepared N-GQDs exhibit a single graphene-layered structure, uniform size, and good crystalline. In the presence of H2O2, N-GQDs possess high anodic ECL activity owing to the functional hydrazide groups. With N-GQDs being ECL probes, sensitive detection of H2O2 in the range of 0.3–100.0 μM with a limit of detection or LOD of 63 nM is achieved. As the oxidation of glucose catalyzed by glucose oxidase (GOx) produces H2O2, sensitive detection of glucose is also realized in the range of 0.7–90.0 μM (LOD of 96 nM).

Abstract
Electrogenerated chemiluminescence (also called electrochemiluminescence (ECL)) has become a great focus of attention in different fields of analysis, mainly as a consequence of the potential remarkably high sensitivity and wide dynamic range. In the particular case of sensing applications, ECL biosensor unites the benefits of the high selectivity of biological recognition elements and the high sensitivity of ECL analysis methods. Hence, it is a powerful analytical device for sensitive detection of different analytes of interest in medical prognosis and diagnosis, food control and environment. These wide range of applications are increased by the introduction of screen-printed electrodes (SPEs). Disposable SPE-based biosensors cover the need to perform in-situ measurements with portable devices quickly and accurately. In this review, we sum up the latest biosensing applications and current progress on ECL bioanalysis combined with disposable SPEs in the field of bio affinity ECL sensors including immunosensors, DNA analysis and catalytic ECL sensors. Furthermore, the integration of nanomaterials with particular physical and chemical properties in the ECL biosensing systems has improved tremendously their sensitivity and overall performance, being one of the most appropriates research fields for the development of highly sensitive ECL biosensor devices.

Gold nanostar-enhanced electrochemiluminescence immunosensor for highly sensitive detection of cancer stem cells using CD133 membrane biomarker. Bioelectrochemistry 2020; 137:107633.

Abstract
Gold nanostars (AuNSs) demonstrate an intense electromagnetic field around tip of branches. In this research, we employed AuNSs-enhanced electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emission from graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets (g-CN nanosheets) to detect CD133 peptide as a cancer stem cell membrane biomarker. In this biosensor, the g-CN nanosheets were decorated with AuNSs (AuNSs@g-CN nanosheets). AuNSs@g-CN nanosheets exhibited strong and stable cathodic ECL emission compared to that of pure g-CN nanosheets. The ECL intensity from the AuNSs@g-CN nanosheets was over 30% higher than that of spherical gold nanoparticles (spherical AuNPs) decorated g-CN nanosheets. The additional ECL enhancement of AuNSs was due to the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect located around multiple branch tips of AuNSs. The RSD of ECL curves intensities, obtained from successive potential scans for 10 cycles, were less than 4%, indicating the superior stability of the AuNSs@g-CN nanosheets. Under optimum conditions, the ECL intensity of GCE/AuNSs@g-CN nanosheets/anti-CD133 decreased linearly with CD133 peptide concentration in the range of 0.05-100 ng mL-1. The LOD achieved was 0.257 ng mL-1 (S/N = 3). The applicability of the designed biosensor in real samples was examined through the determination of CD133 peptide in spiked serum samples, from which satisfactory results were obtained.

Abstract
In recent years, electrochemiluminescence (ECL) nanosensing systems have undergone rapid development and made significant progress in ultrasensitive analysis and cell imaging. Because of the unique advantages of high selectivity, ultra-sensitivity, and good reproducibility, ECL nanosensors can open new paths for cancer diagnosis. With the development of ECL nanosensors, high-throughput analysis, visual detection and spatially resolved ECL imaging of single cells are being realized. The innovations of ECL nanosensors consist of electrochemical excitation, coreactant catalysis, light radiation and luminescence signal amplification, which involve several fields such as nanotechnology, catalysis, optics, and electrochemistry. The developments of ECL instruments also relate to imaging technology. Herein, we review the construction modes, sensing strategies and cancer diagnosis applications of ECL nanosenors. Firstly, the nano-components of the ECL sensing system are discussed. The construction and signal amplification methods of the nanosensing system are emphasized. Secondly, the high-efficiency cancer identification strategies are presented, including protein tumor marker detection, nucleic acid assay, cancer cell identification and exosome detection. The recent advances in representative examples of ECL nanosenors in cancer diagnosis are highlighted, including high-throughput ECL analysis, in situ assay, visual ECL detection, single-cell imaging diagnosis, and so on. Finally, the challenges are featured based on the recent development of the ECL nanosensing system in the clinical diagnosis. The ECL nanosensors provide effective and reliable analytical methods and open new paths for cancer diagnosis. It is noteworthy that the prospects of the ECL nanosensing system in clinical diagnosis are instructive to the developments of other nanosensor research.

Abstract
A sensitive electrochemiluminescence (ECL) assay for microRNAs (miRNAs) based on a semiconductor nanomaterial sensitized with noble-metal Au nanoparticles (NPs) is successfully developed. TiO2 nanotubes (NTs) were equipped with Au NPs to obtain an enhanced ECL emitter. Then, an ECL assay for miRNA-21 was fabricated, which was based on the use of probe 2 DNA-functionalized Pt/PAMAM nanocomposites (NCs) assembled on the surface of Au/TiO2 NT conjugate via DNA hybridization between probe 1 DNA and capture DNA. The Pt/PAMAM NCs act as an ECL quencher of Au/TiO2 NTs via resonance energy transfer. After the binding of target miRNA-21 and the capture DNA, the Pt/PAMAM NCs were released and the ECL signal was recovered. An "off-on" ECL assay was achieved with a linear response from 0.01 to 10,000 pM. Finally, this method has been validated to be sensitive and specific for miRNAs in human serum samples. The ECL enhancement strategy opens a new way for fabricating various sensitive biosensors. Graphical abstract A sensitive "off-on" electrochemiluminescence analysis method was developed, which combined Au NP-enhanced ECL emission of TiO2 nanotubes and an efficient energy-transfer system between Au/TiO2 nanotubes and Pt/PAMAM nanocomposites.

Abstract
Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is a powerful transduction technique with a leading role in the biosensing field due to its high sensitivity and low background signal. Although the intrinsic analytical strength of ECL depends critically on the overall efficiency of the mechanisms of its generation, studies aimed at enhancing the ECL signal have mostly focused on the investigation of materials, either luminophores or coreactants, while fundamental mechanistic studies are relatively scarce. Here, we discover an unexpected but highly efficient mechanistic path for ECL generation close to the electrode surface (signal enhancement, 128%) using an innovative combination of ECL imaging techniques and electrochemical mapping of radical generation. Our findings, which are also supported by quantum chemical calculations and spin trapping methods, led to the identification of a family of alternative branched amine coreactants, which raises the analytical strength of ECL well beyond that of present state-of-the-art immunoassays, thus creating potential ECL applications in ultrasensitive bioanalysis.

Abstract
Mammalian cell analysis is essential in the context of both fundamental studies and clinical applications. Among the various techniques available for cell analysis, electrochemiluminescence (ECL) has attracted significant attention due to its integration of both electrochemical and spectroscopic methods. In this review, we summarize recent advances in the ECL-based systems developed for mammalian cell analysis. The review begins with a summary of the developments in luminophores that opened the door to ECL applications for biological samples. Secondly, ECL-based imaging systems are introduced as an emerging technique to visualize single-cell morphologies and intracellular molecules. In the subsequent section, the ECL sensors developed in the past decade are summarized, the use of which made the highly sensitive detection of cell-derived molecules possible. Although ECL immunoassays are well developed in terms of commercial use, the sensing of biomolecules at a single-cell level remains a challenge. Emphasis is therefore placed on ECL sensors that directly detect cellular molecules from small portions of cells or even single cells. Finally, the development of bipolar electrode devices for ECL cell assays is introduced. To conclude, the direction of research in this field and its application prospects are described.

Abstract
The use of electrochemiluminescence (ECL), i.e., chemiluminescence triggered by electrochemical stimulus, as emitting light source for microscopy is an emerging approach with different applications ranging from the visualization of nanomaterials to cell mapping. In this trend article, we give an overview of the state of the art in this new field with the purpose to illustrate all the possible applications so far explored as well as describing the mechanism underlying this transduction technique. The results discussed here would highlight the great potential of the combination between ECL and microscopy and how this marriage can turn into an innovative approach with specific application in analytical sciences.

Abstract
Fundamentals of quantum dots (QDs) sensing phenomena show the predominance of these fluorophores over standard organic dyes, mainly because of their unique optical properties such as sharp and tunable emission spectra, high emission quantum yield and broad absorption. Moreover, they also indicate no photo bleaching and can be also grown as no blinking emitters. Due to these properties, QDs may be used e.g., for multiplex testing of the analyte by simultaneously detecting multiple or very weak signals. Physico-chemical mechanisms used for analyte detection, like analyte stimulated QDs aggregation, nonradiative Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) exhibit a number of QDs, which can be applied in sensors. Quantum dots-based sensors find use in the detection of ions, organic compounds (e.g., proteins, sugars, volatile substances) as well as bacteria and viruses.

Abstract
Signal amplification for electrochemiluminescence (ECL) has conventionally been achieved by employing effective matrixes that can accelerate the electrochemical redox processes or carry more electrochemiluminophores. Herein, a convenient signal-amplification strategy was proposed for an ECL immunoassay with carboxylated g-C3N4 nanosheets (NSs) as tags and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) as the model target via electrochemically pretreating the substrate: a glassy-carbon electrode (GCE) modified with a polymerized 2-aminoterephthalic acid (ATA) film (GCE/ATA). Bioconjugates of g-C3N4 NSs and the signal CEA antibody (Ab2) (i.e., g-C3N4 NS-Ab2) were immobilized on GCE/ATA via a sandwich immunoreaction to form GCE/ATA-Ab1-Ag-Ab2-NSs. Electrochemical-impedance spectroscopy and potential-resolved ECL characterization proved that GCE/ATA plays an important role in the electron-transfer resistance ( Ret) of the GCE/ATA-Ab1-Ag-Ab2-NSs for ECL and that successively scanning GCE/ATA-Ab1-Ag-Ab2-NSs from 0 to -1.6 V in K2S2O8- and H2O2-containing medium could reduce the Ret and bring out 3.3-times-enhanced ECL at the 10th scan cycle compared with that of the 1st scan cycle, which was about 10.2 times the ECL of the GCE/ATA-Ab1-Ag-Ab2-NSs in medium containing merely K2S2O8. Inspired by this, direct and successive scanning of GCE/ATA in K2S2O8- and H2O2-containing medium was employed during fabrication, which dramatically reduced the Ret of GCE/ATA-Ab1-Ag-Ab2-NSs and brought out obviously enhanced ECL responses for selectively determining CEA from 0.1 pg/mL to 1 ng/mL, with a detection limit of 3 fg/mL.

Abstract
The rapid and increasing use of the nanomaterials (NMs), nanostructured materials (NSMs), metal nanoclusters (MNCs) or nanocomposites (NCs) in the development of electrochemiluminescence (ECL) nanobiosensors is a significant area of study for its massive potential in the practical application of nanobiosensor fabrication. Recently, NMs or NSMs (such as AuNPs, AgNPs, Fe₃O₄, CdS QDs, OMCs, graphene, CNTs and fullerenes) or MNCs (such as Au, Ag, and Pt) or NCs of both metallic and non-metallic origin are being employed for various purposes in the construction of biosensors. In this review, we have selected recently published articles (from 2014-2017) on the current development and prospects of label-free or direct ECL nanobiosensors that incorporate NCs, NMs, NSMs or MNCs.
