▎ 摘　　要

A novel label-free electrochemiluminescent (ECL) immunosensor based upon luminol functionalized platinum nanoparticles loaded on graphene sheets (Lu-Pt@GS) as sensing platform was fabricated for highly sensitive and selective determination of prostate specific antigen (PSA). In this work, for the first time luminol was employed as both ECL luminescence reagent and reductants to in-situ reduce H2PtCl6 forming Pt NPs on surface of GS. A great deal of luminol could be attached onto the surface of Pt NPs within the reduction process, which can generate strong ECL emission. Pt NPs not only could enhance ECL signals of luminol but supply active sites for the immobilization of PSA antibodies with micro friendly environment. For preventing the consecutive reaction among luminol and H2O2, single-step cycle pulse was adopted, resulting in stable and strong ECL signals. Under optimized experimental conditions, the proposed ECL immunosensor acquired a wide linear range of 1 pg/mL to 10 ng/mL with a relatively low detection limit of 0.3 pg/mL for PSA. Furthermore, due to high sensitivity, simplicity and cost-effectiveness, the designed immunosensor provides a new method for detecting other important biomarkers in clinical analysis.
