Pt@Tetraphenyl-1,3-butadiene Nanocrystals with Coreaction Acceleration and Crystallization-Induced Enhanced Electrochemiluminescence for Ultrasensitive MicroRNA Detection

ECL system as 1. Herein, Pt@TPB NCs with strong ECL signals were used as ECL emitters to combine target-induced DNA walker amplification with high conversion efficiency for the construction of an ultrasensitive ECL biosening platform which accomplished microRNA-21 detection with a low detection limit of 83.8 aM. Therefore, the developed synergy effects in Pt@TPB NCs are expected to guide the progress of highly efficient ECL emitters for sensing analysis and disease diagnosis.
