Abstract: | The effects of 36 organic compounds on luminol-KIO(4)-H(2)O(2) chemiluminescence (CL) were studied. It was found that most of the tested compounds could inhibit or enhance the CL intensity. The activities of such inhibitors or enhancers were related to the pH of the CL system and the number and position of functional groups such as -OH and -NH(2) on aromatic rings. The mechanism of the CL inhibition and enhancement was considered. Based on the CL inhibition or enhancement, the possibility of analytical applications was explored. The results demonstrated that numerous compounds were detectable at the ng/mL level using the CL system. |
