BODIPY-based metal–organic frameworks as efficient electrochemiluminescence emitters for telomerase detection

Abstract

A boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY)-based metal–organic framework (MOF) nanoemitter was for the first time designed with enhanced electrochemiluminescence (ECL) intensity due to the suppression of non-radiative dissipation originating from the ordered arrangement of BODIPY molecules in the framework. Thus, an ECL biosensor was developed for telomerase detection with excellent performance in real samples.
