Electrochemiluminescence biosensing based on different modes of switching signals

Abstract

Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) has attracted much attention in various fields of analysis owing to low background signals, high sensitivity, and excellent controllability. In recent years, to further boost the performance of biosensors, diverse output signal modes have been developed, which exhibited respective advantages. In this review, we summarize the latest sensing applications of ECL bioanalysis by generalizing different output signal modes and give future perspectives for new developments in ECL analytical technology.
