Fast capillary gas chromatography has been coupled to a luminol-based chemiluminescence detection system for the rapid monitoring of nitrogen dioxide and peroxyacyl nitrates. A first-generation instrument was described recently (Gaffney et al., 1998). This system is capable of monitoring nitrogen dioxide and peroxyacyl nitrates (PANs; to and including the C4 species) with 1-min time resolution....

BACKGROUND The opioid antagonist agent naloxone hydrochloride (NLX) is a drug that has high affinity for opiate receptors but do not activate these receptors. Owing to the role of this drug to block the effects of exogenous administered opioids and endogenous released endorphians we can deduce the importance of developing sensitive analytical methods for detection of such drug. In the present s...

A bottom-up approach for preparing multifunctional graphene-based materials noncovalently functionalized with CL reagents with aromatic rings such as N-(aminobutyl)-N-(ethylisoluminol) (ABEI), luminol and isoluminol is reported. The as-prepared nanocomposites exhibit good CL activity, which may find future applications in analytical, electrochemical and biomedical fields.

We report on the generation of electrochemiluminescence (ECL) from luminol and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in alkaline aqueous solution entirely pure conducting polymer (CP) films. Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) polypyrrole (PPy) films prepared by constant current electrolysis were used as bipolar electrodes (BPEs) to drive ECL emission a wireless mode with aid electrochemistry. A common...

A rapid and sensitive flow-injection chemiluminescence (CL) method for the determination of glipizide was developed on the basis of finding that glipizide can enhance the CL intensity of the luminol-K3Fe(CN)6 system. In optimum condition, the increased CL intensity was directly proportional to the concentration of glipizide in the range from 4.0×10-8 g/mL to 1.0×10-6 g/mL and the detection limi...

An immunosensor based on the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) of luminol was proposed by coupling enzymatic reaction to in situ generate coreactant with Pd nanoparticles as catalyst for the ECL reaction, which was successfully applied for the ultrasensitive detection of α-1-fetoprotein with a low detection limit of 33 fg mL(-1).
