Plasmon-Boosted Cu-Doped TiO2 Oxygen Vacancy-Rich Luminol Electrochemiluminescence for Highly Sensitive Detection of Alkaline Phosphatase

Authors:

Abstract
In this study, an effective oxygen vacancy (Ov)-involved luminol-dissolved oxygen (O2) electrochemiluminescence (luminol-DO ECL) system was developed and exploited for ECL sensing applications through significant plasmon enhancement of the Ov-involved weak luminol-DO ECL signals by the combined use of Cu-doped TiO2 oxygen vacancy and a [email protected]2 nanomembrane. The results disclosed that the ECL response of the corresponding system could be synergistically boosted, and the plausible underlying mechanism has been discussed. Furthermore, for the first time, the developed system has been successfully applied for the highly sensitive detection of alkaline phosphatase with a low limit of detection of 0.005 U/L, with an excellent linear range from 0.005 to 10 U/L, as well as good stability and reproducibility.
