ResumoThe electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) behavior of N-(4-aminobutyl)-N-ethylisoluminol (ABEI) was studied and it was found that ABEI could produce emission light when oxidized at a +1.0 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) potential in alkaline solution. The addition of H2O2 markedly improved the ECL sensitivity. The pH value of the solution as well as the H2O2 concentration and working potential all have influences on the ECL response. Under optimal conditions, ABEI can be detected in the range 1.3 × 10−6–6.5 × 10−12 mol L−1. A detection limit of 2.2 × 10−12 mol L−1 for ABEI was obtained at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. ABEI was then used as a marker to label a known sequence oligonucleotide, which was used as a DNA probe for identifying a target ssDNA immobilized on a PPy modified electrode based on a specific hybridization reaction. The hybridization events were evaluated by the ECL measurements. The results showed that only a complementary sequence could form a double-stranded DNA with the DNA probe and give a strong ECL response. A three-base mismatch sequence and non-complementary sequence have no response. The intensity of the ECL was linearly related to the concentration of the complementary sequence in the range 9.6 × 10−11–9.6 × 10−8 mol L−1, the detection limit was 3.0 × 10−11 mol L−1.
