Pyrophosphate as substrate for alkaline phosphatase activity: A convenient flow‐injection chemiluminescence assay

A sensitive and convenient flow‐injection chemiluminescence (FI‐CL) turn‐on assay for alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity without any label and synthesis is developed. Cu²⁺ can catalyze the luminol–H₂O₂ CL reaction. Pyrophosphate (PPi) can chelate Cu²⁺ and therefore the Cu²⁺‐mediated luminol‐H₂O₂ CL reaction is inhibited. The addition of ALP can catalyze the hydrolysis of PPi into phosphate ions, Cu²⁺ is released and the chemiluminescence recovers. A detection limit of 1 mU/mL ALP is obtained.     

Turn‐off–on chemiluminescence determination of cyanide

A flow injection chemiluminescence (FI–CL) method was developed for the determination of cyanide (CN⁻) based on the recovered CL signal by Cu²⁺ inhibiting a glutathione (GSH)‐capped CdTe quantum dot (QD) and hydrogen peroxide system. In an alkaline medium, strong CL signals were observed from the reaction of CdTe QDs and H₂O₂, and addition of Cu²⁺ could cause significant CL inhibition of the CdTe QDs–H₂O₂ system. In the presence of CN⁻, Cu²⁺ can be removed from the surface of CdTe QDs via the formation of particularly stable [Cu(CN)_n]^(n‐1)– species, and the CL signal of the CdTe QDs–H₂O₂ system was efficiently recovered. Thus, the CL signals of CdTe QDs–H₂O₂ system were turned off and turned on by the addition of Cu²⁺ and CN⁻, respectively. Further, the results showed that among the tested ions, only CN⁻ could recover the CL signal, which suggested that the CdTe QDs–H₂O₂–Cu²⁺ CL system had highly selectivity for CN⁻. Under optimum conditions, the CL intensity and the concentration of CN⁻ show a good linear relationship in the range 0.0–650.0 ng/mL (R² = 0.9996). The limit of detection for CN⁻ was 6.0 ng/mL (3σ). This method has been applied to detect CN⁻ in river water and industrial wastewater with satisfactory results. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Large enhancement of oscillating chemiluminescence with [Ru(bpy)3]2+‐catalyzed Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction in the presence of tri‐n‐propylamine

Oscillating chemiluminescence enhanced by the addition of tri‐n‐propylamine (TPrA) to the typical Belousov–Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction system catalyzed by ruthenium(II)tris(2.2'‐bipyridine)(Ru(bpy)₃²⁺) was investigated using a luminometry method. The [Ru(bpy)₃]²⁺/TPrA system was first used as the catalyst for a BZ oscillator in a closed system, which exhibited a shorter induction period, higher amplitude and much more stable chemiluminescence (CL) oscillation. The effects of various concentrations of TPrA, oxygen and nitrogen flow rate on the oscillating behavior of this system were examined. In addition, the CL intensity of the [Ru(bpy)₃]²⁺/TPrA–BZ system was found to be inhibited by phenol, thus providing a way for use of the BZ system in the determination of phenolic compounds. Moreover, the possible mechanism of the oscillating CL reaction catalyzed by [Ru(bpy)₃]²⁺/TPrA and the inhibition effects of oxygen and phenol on this oscillating CL system were considered.

Highly luminescent S,N co‐doped carbon quantum dots‐sensitized chemiluminescence on luminol–H2O2 system for the determination of ranitidine

S,N co‐doped carbon quantum dots (N,S‐CQDs) with super high quantum yield (79%) were prepared by the hydrothermal method and characterized by transmission electron microscopy, photoluminescence, UV–Vis spectroscopy and Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy. N,S‐CQDs can enhance the chemiluminescence intensity of a luminol–H₂O₂ system. The possible mechanism of the luminol–H₂O₂–(N,S‐CQDs) was illustrated by using chemiluminescence, photoluminescence and ultraviolet analysis. Ranitidine can quench the chemiluminescence intensity of a luminol–H₂O₂–N,S‐CQDs system. So, a novel flow‐injection chemiluminescence method was designed to determine ranitidine within a linear range of 0.5–50 μg ml^?1 and a detection limit of 0.12 μg ml^?1. The method shows promising application prospects.     

A N‐(2‐hydroxyethyl)piperazine dangled 2,5‐diphenyl‐1,3,4‐oxadiazole‐based fluorescent sensor for selective relay recognition of Cu2+ and sulfide in water

A new 2,5‐diphenyl‐1,3,4‐oxadiazole‐based derivative (L) was synthesized and applied as a highly selective and sensitive fluorescent sensor for relay recognition of Cu²⁺ and S^2? in water (Tris–HCl 10 mM, pH = 7.0) solution. L exhibits an excellent selectivity to Cu²⁺ over other examined metal ions with a prominent fluorescence ‘turn‐off’ at 392 nm. L interacts with Cu²⁺ through a 1:2 binding stoichiometry with a detection limit of 4.8 × 10^–7 M. The on‐site formed L–2Cu²⁺ complex exhibits excellent selectivity to S^2? with a fluorescence ‘off–on’ response via a Cu²⁺ displacement approach. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Design of nonapeptide LVFFARKHH: A bifunctional agent against Cu2+‐mediated amyloid β‐protein aggregation and cytotoxicity

Dysfunctional accumulation of amyloid β‐protein (Aβ) mediated by Cu²⁺ exhibits higher neurotoxicity and accelerates the progress of Alzheimer's disease, so inhibition of Cu²⁺‐mediated Aβ aggregation and cytotoxicity has been considered as a therapeutic strategy for the disease. Herein, a nonapeptide was designed by linking HH to the C‐terminus of a peptide inhibitor of Aβ aggregation, LVFFARK (LK7). We found that the nonapeptide, LK7‐HH, possessed dual functionality, including enhanced inhibition capability on Aβ aggregation as compared to LK7, and chelating Cu²⁺ with a dissociation constant of 5.50 μM. This enabled LK7‐HH to arrest the generation of reactive oxygen species catalyzed by Cu²⁺ or Cu²⁺‐Aβ complex, and to inhibit Cu²⁺‐induced Aβ aggregation. Moreover, in contrast with the cytotoxicity of LK7 aggregates, LK7‐HH was biocompatible because HH conjugation made its aggregation behavior different from LK7. Thus, LK7‐HH efficiently suppressed Cu²⁺‐mediated Aβ aggregation and cytotoxicity. An equimolar concentration of LK7‐HH increased cell viability from 50% to 90% when treating Aβ₄₀‐Cu²⁺ complexes. The results provided insights into the roles of HH in enhancing the inhibition of Aβ and Cu²⁺‐induced Aβ aggregations, in eliminating Cu²⁺‐induced cytotoxicities by arresting generation of reactive oxygen species, and in making the peptide biocompatible. Therefore, this work would contribute to the design of potent peptide‐based inhibitors of Cu²⁺‐mediated Aβ aggregation and cytotoxicity.     

Nepem‐211 ion exchange conductive membrane immobilized tris(2,2´‐bipyridyl) ruthenium(II) electrogenerated chemiluminescence flow sensor for high‐performance liquid chromatography and its application

We developed a sensitive and robust electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) flow sensor based on Ru(bpy)₃²⁺ immobilized with a Nepem‐211 perfluorinated ion exchange conductance membrane, which has robustness and stability under a wide range of chemical and physical conditions, good electrical conductivity, isotropy and a high exchange capacity for immobilization of Ru(bpy)₃²⁺. The flow sensor has been used as a post‐column detector in high‐performance liquid chromatography for determination of erythromycin and clarithromycin in honey and pork, and tricyclic antidepressant drugs in human urine. Under optimal conditions, the linear ranges were 0.03–26 ng/μL and 0.01–1 ng/μL for macrolides and tricyclic antidepressant drugs, respectively. The detection limits were 0.02, 0.01, 0.01, 0.06 and 0.003 ng/μL for erythromycin, clarithromycin, doxepin, amitriptyline and clomipramine, respectively. There is no post‐column reagent addition. In addition to the conservation expensive reagents, the experimental setup was simplified. The flow sensor was used for 2 years with high sensitivity and stability.

Response surface optimized peroxyoxalate chemiluminescence of octahydro‐Schiff base derivative as new luminophor and study of the quenching effect of some cations,amino acids and cholesterol

We report the first detailed study of the characteristics of an octahydro‐Schiff base derivative as a new luminophor in the peroxyoxalate chemiluminescence (POCL) system. The effect of reagents on this new POCL system was investigated. In addition, the response surface methodology was used for evaluating the relative significance of variables in this POCL system, establishing models and determining optimal conditions. The quenching effect of some cations and compounds such as Cu²⁺, Fe³⁺, Hg²⁺, imidazole, histidine and cholesterol on an optimized POCL reaction were studied. The dynamic ranges were up to approximaterly 100 and 175 × 10^?6 M for Cu²⁺ and cholesterol respectively. The detection limits were 3.3 × 10^?6 m and 2.58 × 10^?6 m for Cu²⁺ and histidine, respectively. In all cases the relative standard deviations were 4–5% (n = 4).

Flow‐injection chemiluminescence method for the determination of chloramphenicol based on luminol–sodium periodate order‐transform second‐chemiluminescence reaction

A new chemiluminescence (CL) reaction was observed when chloramphenicol solution was injected into the mixture after the end of the reaction of alkaline luminol and sodium periodate or sodium periodate was injected into the reaction mixture of chloramphenicol and alkaline luminol. This reaction is described as an order‐transform second‐chemiluminescence (OTSCL) reaction. The OTSCL method combined with a flow‐injection technique was applied to the determination of chloramphenicol. The optimum conditions for the order‐transform second‐chemiluminescence emission were investigated. A mechanism for OTSCL has been proposed on the basis of the chemiluminescence kinetic characteristics, the UV‐visible spectra and the chemiluminescent spectra. Under optimal experimental conditions, the CL response is proportional to the concentration of chloramphenicol over the range 5.0 × 10^?7–5.0 × 10^?5 mol/L with a correlation coefficient of 0.9969 and a detection limit of 6.0 × 10^?8 mol/L (3σ). The relative standard deviation (RSD) for 11 repeated determinations of 5.0 × 10^?6 mol/L chloramphenicol is 1.7%. The method has been applied to the determination of chloramphenicol in pharmaceutical samples with satisfactory results. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Paramelaconite‐Enriched Copper‐Based Material as an Efficient and Robust Catalyst for Electrochemical Carbon Dioxide Reduction

A copper‐oxide‐based catalyst enriched with paramelaconite (Cu₄O₃) is presented and investigated as an electrocatalyst for facilitating electroreduction of CO₂ to ethylene and other hydrocarbons. Cu₄O₃ is a member of the copper‐oxide family and possesses an intriguing mixed‐valance nature, incorporating an equal number of Cu⁺ and Cu²⁺ ions in its crystal structure. The material is synthesized using a solvothermal synthesis route and its structure is confirmed via powder X‐ray diffraction, transmission electron microscope based selected area electron diffraction, and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy. A flow reactor equipped with a gas diffusion electrode is utilized to test a copper‐based catalyst enriched with the Cu₄O₃ phase under CO₂ reduction conditions. The Cu₄O₃‐rich catalyst (PrC) shows a Faradaic efficiency for ethylene over 40% at 400 mA cm^?2. At ?0.64 versus reversible hydrogen electrode, the highest C₂₊/C₁ product ratio of 4.8 is achieved, with C₂₊ Faradaic efficiency over 61%. Additionally, the catalyst exhibits a stable performance for 24 h at a constant current density of 200 mA cm^?2.     

Magnesium methoxide‐induced chemiluminescent decomposition of bicyclic dioxetanes bearing a 2′‐alkoxy‐2‐hydroxy‐1,1′‐binaphthyl‐7‐yl moiety

Bicyclic dioxetanes 2a–c bearing a 2′‐alkoxy‐2‐hydroxy‐1,1′‐binaphthyl‐7‐yl moiety were effectively synthesized and their base‐induced chemiluminescent decomposition was investigated by the use of alkaline metal (Na⁺ and K⁺) or Mg²⁺ alkoxide in MeOH. When 2a–c were treated with tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF) in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as a reference system, they showed chemiluminescence as a flash of orange light (maximum wavelength λ_max^CL = 573–577 nm) with efficiency Φ^CL = 6–8 × 10^–2. On the other hand, for an alkaline metal (Na⁺ or K⁺) alkoxide/MeOH system, 2a–c decomposed slowly to emit a glow of chemiluminescence, the spectra of which were shifted slightly toward red from the TBAF/DMSO system, and Φ^CL (= 1.4–2.3 × 10^–3) was considerably decreased. In addition, Mg(OMe)₂ was found to play a characteristic role as a base for the chemiluminescent decomposition of 2a–c through coordination to the intermediary oxidoaryl‐substituted dioxetanes 13. Thus, Mg²⁺ increased Φ^CL to more than twice those with Na⁺ or K⁺, while it shifted λ_max^CL considerably toward blue (λ_max^CL = 550–566 nm). Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Copper blocks V‐ATPase activity and SNARE complex formation to inhibit yeast vacuole fusion

The accumulation of copper in organisms can lead to altered functions of various pathways and become cytotoxic through the generation of reactive oxygen species. In yeast, cytotoxic metals such as Hg⁺, Cd²⁺ and Cu²⁺ are transported into the lumen of the vacuole through various pumps. Copper ions are initially transported into the cell by the copper transporter Ctr1 at the plasma membrane and sequestered by chaperones and other factors to prevent cellular damage by free cations. Excess copper ions can subsequently be transported into the vacuole lumen by an unknown mechanism. Transport across membranes requires the reduction of Cu²⁺ to Cu⁺. Labile copper ions can interact with membranes to alter fluidity, lateral phase separation and fusion. Here we found that CuCl₂ potently inhibited vacuole fusion by blocking SNARE pairing. This was accompanied by the inhibition of V‐ATPase H⁺ pumping. Deletion of the vacuolar reductase Fre6 had no effect on the inhibition of fusion by copper. This suggests that Cu²⁺ is responsible for the inhibition of vacuole fusion and V‐ATPase function. This notion is supported by the differential effects of chelators. The Cu²⁺‐specific chelator triethylenetetramine rescued fusion, whereas the Cu⁺‐specific chelator bathocuproine disulfonate had no effect on the inhibited fusion.     

Investigations of different chemiluminescent peaks in H2O2–SCN−–Cu2+–OH−–luminol flow system

In the H₂O₂–SCN^?–Cu²⁺–OH^?–luminol oscillatory system of chemiluminescence, the effects of the ingredient concentrations, temperature, flow rate and complexing agent on the oscillatory dynamics were investigated in a continuous‐flow stirred tank reactor (CSTR). The dynamical structure of two peaks during a period was discussed in detail. By addition of EDTA to the oscillating system, the peak I height decreased sharply while the peak II height was little affected, and the period kept constant. This may be due to the fast reaction between Cu(II) and EDTA and the highly stable complex Cu(II)–EDTA. From the experimental study and mechanism analysis, the chemiluminescent peak I corresponds to Cu(II) → Cu(I) transformation and the peak II corresponds to the Cu(I) → Cu(II) transformation process. The key species involving in the two‐transformation process are inferred to be superoxide radical and hydroxyl radical. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Son, Ltd.     

Effect of linear alkylbenzene sulfonate on Cu2+ removal by Spirulina platensis strain (FACHB‐834)

The removal efficiency of Cu²⁺ by Spirulina platensis (strain FACHB‐834), in viable and heat‐inactivated forms, was investigated in the presence and absence of linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS). When the initial Cu²⁺ concentration was in the range of 0.5–1.5 mg · L^?1, a slight increase in growth rate of FACHB‐834 was observed. In contrast, when Cu²⁺ or LAS concentrations were at or higher than 2.0 or 6.0 mg · L^?1, respectively, the growth of FACHB‐834 was inhibited and displayed yellowing and fragmentation of filaments. The presence of LAS improved Cu²⁺ removal by ~20%, and accelerated attainment of Cu²⁺ retention equilibrium. For the 2‐ mg · L^?1 Cu²⁺ treatments, retention equilibrium occurred within 2 d and showed maximum Cu²⁺ removal of 1.83 mg · L^?1. In the presence of LAS, the ratio of extracellular bound Cu²⁺ to intracellular Cu²⁺ taken up by the cells was lower (1.05–2.26) than corresponding ratios (2.46–7.85) in the absence of LAS. The percentages of extracellular bound Cu²⁺ to total Cu²⁺ removal (both bound and taken up by cells) in the presence of LAS ranged from 51.2% to 69.3%, which was lower than their corresponding percentages (71.1%–88.7%) in the absence of LAS. LAS promoted biologically active transport of the extracellular bound form of Cu²⁺ into the cell. In contrast, the addition of LAS did not increase the maximum removal efficiency of Cu²⁺ (61.4% ± 5.6%) by heat‐inactivated cells compared to that of living cells (59.6% ± 6.0%). These results provide a theoretical foundation for designing bioremediation strategies using FACHB‐834 for use in surface waters contaminated by both heavy metals and LAS.     

Multifunctional peptide‐based fluorescent chemosensor for detection of Hg2+, Cu2+ and S2− ions

A novel multifunctional fluorescent peptide sensor based on pentapeptide dansyl‐Gly‐His‐Gly‐Gly‐Trp‐COOH (D‐P5) was designed and synthesized efficiently using Fmoc solid‐phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). This fluorescent peptide sensor shows selective and sensitive responses to Hg²⁺ and Cu²⁺ among 17 metal ions and six anions studied in N‐2‐hydroxyethylpiperazine‐N‐2‐ethane sulfonic acid (HEPES) buffer solution. The peptide probe differentiates Hg²⁺ and Cu²⁺ ions by a ‘turn‐on’ response to Hg²⁺ and a ‘turn‐off’ response to Cu²⁺. Upon addition of Hg²⁺ or Cu²⁺ ions, the sensor displayed an apparent color change that was visible under an ultraviolet lamp to the naked eye. The limits of detection (LOD) of DP‐5 were 25.0 nM for Hg²⁺ and 85.0 nM for Cu²⁺; the detection limits for Cu²⁺ were much lower than the drinking water maximum contaminant levels set out by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). It is noteworthy that both D‐P5‐Hg and D‐P5‐Cu systems were also used to detect S^2? successfully based on the formation of ternary complexes. The LODs of D‐P5‐Hg and D‐P5‐Cu systems for S^2? were 217.0 nM and 380.0 nM, respectively. Furthermore, the binding stoichiometry, binding affinity and pH sensitivity of the probe for Hg²⁺ and Cu²⁺ were investigated. This study gives new possibilities for using a short fluorescent peptide sensor for multifunctional detection, especially for anions.     

A rhodamine‐triazole fluorescent chemodosimeter for Cu2+ detection and its application in bioimaging

A rhodamine‐based fluorescent chemodosimeter rhodamine hydrazide‐triazole (RHT) tethered with a triazole moiety was developed for Cu²⁺ detection. In aqueous medium, the RHT probe exhibited high selectivity and sensitivity toward Cu²⁺ among other metal ions. The addition of Cu²⁺ triggered a fluorescence emission of RHT by 384‐fold (Φ = 0.33) based on a ring‐opening process and a subsequent hydrolysis reaction. Moreover, RHT also showed a selective colorimetric response toward Cu²⁺ from colorless solution to pink, readily observed with the naked eye. The limit of detection of RHT for Cu²⁺ was calculated to be 1 nM (0.06 ppb). RHT was successfully demonstrated to detect Cu²⁺ in Chang liver cells by confocal fluorescence microscopy.     

A selective determination of copper ions in water samples based on the fluorescence quenching of thiol‐capped CdTe quantum dots

CdTe quantum dots (QDs) capped with different stabilizers, i.e. thioglycolic acid (TGA), 3‐mercaptopropionic acid (MPA) and glutathione (GSH) were investigated as fluorescent probes for the determination of Cu²⁺. The stabilizer was shown to play an important role in both the sensitivity and selectivity for the determination of Cu²⁺. TGA‐capped CdTe QDs showed the highest sensitivity, followed by the MPA and GSH‐capped CdTe QDs, respectively. The TGA‐ and MPA‐capped CdTe QDs were not selective for Cu²⁺ that was affected by Ag⁺. The GSH‐capped CdTe QDs were insensitive to Ag⁺ and were used to determine Cu²⁺ in water samples. Under optimal conditions, quenching of the fluorescence intensity (F₀/F) increased linearly with the concentration of Cu²⁺ over a range of 0.10–4.0 µg/mL and the detection limit was 0.06 µg/mL. The developed method was successfully applied to the determination of Cu²⁺ in water samples. Good recoveries of 93–104%, with a relative standard deviation of < 6% demonstrated that the developed simple method was accurate and reliable. The quenching mechanisms were also described.

Semi‐micro flow injection analysis method for evaluation of quenching effect of health foods or food additive antioxidants on peroxynitrite

A semi‐micro flow injection analysis (SMFIA) method for evaluation of quenching effect of food additive antioxidants or health foods on peroxynitrite (ONOO^‐) is described. The injected sample was carried with phosphate buffer containing NaNO₂, mixed with a trigger solution to generate ONOO^‐ and then detected CL generated after mixing with luminol solution. Selective chemiluminescence caused by ONOO^‐ in this generation system was confirmed by catalase treatment. Ascorbic acid (ASA), Trolox and ascorbyl palmitate (ASP) were used as food additive antioxidants. EC₅₀ values of ASA, Trolox and ASP were 2.6, 6.4 and 43 µg/mL, respectively. The amount of reagents required for an assay by this SMFIA system could reduce the time by a third compared with the conventional method previously reported. Furthermore, as an application of the proposed method, the quenching effect of commercially available Noni (Morinda citrifolia) juices was evaluated. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Cross-linking properties of alginate gels determined by using advanced NMR imaging and Cu<Superscript>2+</Superscript> as contrast agent

The entrapment of enzymes, drugs, cells or tissue fragments in alginates cross-linked with Ca²⁺ or Ba²⁺ has great potential in basic research, biotechnology and medicine. The swelling properties and, in turn, the mechanical stability are key factors in designing an optimally cross-linked hydrogel matrix. These parameters depend critically on the cross-linking process and seemingly minor modifications in manufacture have a large impact. Thus, sensitive and non-invasive tools are required to determine the spatial homogeneity and efficacy of the cross-linking process. Here, we show for alginate microcapsules (between 400 µm and 600 µm in diameter) that advanced ¹H NMR imaging, along with paramagnetic Cu²⁺ as contrast agent, can be used to validate the cross-linking process. Two- and three-dimensional images and maps of the spin-lattice relaxation time T₁ of Ba²⁺ cross-linked microcapsules exposed to external Cu²⁺ yielded qualitative as well as quantitative information about the accumulation of Cu²⁺ within and removal from microcapsules upon washing with Cu²⁺ free saline solution. The use of Cu²⁺ (having a slightly higher affinity constant to alginate than Ba²⁺) for gelling gave a complementary insight into the spatial homogeneity of the cross-linking process together with information about the mechanical stability of the microcapsules. The potential of this technique was demonstrated for alginates extracted from two different algal sources and cross-linked either externally by the conventional air-jet dropping method or internally by the "crystal gun" method.     

A simple and sensitive flow injection chemiluminescence immunoassay for chloramphenicol based on gold nanoparticle‐loaded enzyme

A simple and ultrasensitive flow injection chemiluminescence competitive immunoassay based on gold nanoparticle‐loaded enzyme for the detection of chloramphenicol (CAP) residues in shrimp and honey has been developed. Due to their good biocompatibility and large specific surface area, carboxylic resin beads can be used as solid phase carriers to immobilize more coating antigens (Ag). In addition, gold nanoparticles could provide an effective matrix for loading more CAP antibody and horseradish peroxidase, which would effectively catalyze the system of luminol–p‐iodophenol (PIP)–H₂O₂. A competitive immunoassay strategy was used for detection of CAP, in which CAP in the sample would compete with the coating Ag for the limited antibodies, leading to a chemiluminescence (CL) signal decrease with increase in CAP concentration. A wide linear range 0.001–10 ng ml^?1 (R² = 0.9961) was obtained under optimized conditions, and the detection limit (3σ) was calculated to be 0.33 pg ml^?1. This method was also been successfully applied to determine CAP in shrimp and honey samples. The immunosensor proposed in this study not only has the advantages of high sensitivity, wider linear range, and satisfactory stability, but also expands the application of flow injection CL immunoassay in antibiotic detection.
