(ECL) immunoassay amplified by coreaction
accelerators has experienced major breakthroughs in ultrasensitive
detection of biomarkers. Herein, CeO2/SnS2 heterostructures
were synthesized and applied as a novel coreaction accelerator to
enhance the ECL efficiency of the luminol–dissolved O2 system for the first time. Benefiting from the well-matched lattice
spacing, ultrafine CeO2 nanoparticles (NPs) were grown
in situ on layered SnS2 nanosheets (NSs) with improved
dispersion. CeO2/SnS2 as an electroactive substrate
can remarkably accelerate the generation of abundant superoxide anion
radicals (O2•–) to react with
luminol anion radical (L•–), achieving about
2-fold stronger ECL intensity than that of pure CeO2 NPs.
To avoid harsh chemical synthesis of conventional ECL labels and simplify
the antibody conjugation process, ferritin (Ft) was served as a natural
nanocarrier to immobilize luminol molecules (Lum@Ft) via a one-step
linkage, whose protein nanocage can easily connect with the detection
antibody. Moreover, a robust site-oriented immobilization strategy
using HWRGWVC heptapeptide as specific capturer was further
adopted to maintain the bioactivity of the capture antibody on the
amine-functionalized CeO2/SnS2 surface, which
promoted the incubation efficiency markedly. On account of this advanced
sensing strategy, a brand new biosensor was constructed for the accurate
detection of heart failure biomarkers, which performed with favorable
linearity in the range of 0.0001–50 ng/mL and achieved the
detection limit of 36 fg/mL.
