An electrochemiluminescence (ECL)-based assay for the quantitation of classical clinical chemistry analytes, where glucose, ethanol, carbon dioxide, cholesterol, as H 2 O 2 liberating systems coupled to a tris(bipyridyl)ruthenium(II) Ru(bpy) 3 2+ luminophore generate an ECL signal, which can be detected spectrophotometrically or electrochemically. The H 2 O 2 present reacts with oxalate in the presence of Ru(bpy) 3 2+ to give an ECL response. |
