Abstract

Here, we developed a novel electrochemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (ECL-RET) approach between Ru(bpy) 2+3 and Au nanorods (NRs) for sensitive determination of H2O2. Au NRs were synthesized through silver ion-assisted seed-mediated method which exhibited an obvious absorption peak at about 627 nm. They were modified at glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface which showed a significant ECL quenching efficiency about 56.5% due to the ECL-RET process. This Au NRs modified electrode was then utilized to measure the concentration of H2O2 on the basis of the significant quenching effect of H2O2 on Ru(bpy) 2+3 ECL. Results demonstrated that the decrement of ECL intensity at Au NRs modified electrode had ~ 6.6-fold enhancement as compared with that at bare electrode.
