Anodic electrogenerated chemiluminescence of self-assembled peptide nanotubes in an aqueous system†
Abstract
Anodic electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) of the self-assembled peptide nanotube (PNT) modified electrode in an aqueous system was observed for the first time using tri-n-propylamine (TPrA) as the coreactant. The potential application of ECL PNTs in analytical chemistry was also demonstrated using Cu2+ as an example.
