Progress in Ru (bpy)(3)(2+) Electrogenerated Chemiluminescence

Among various ECL systems, such as 9,10-diphenylanthracene, lucigenin, tris(2,2'-bipyridyl) ruthenium, peroxyoxalate, luminol, graphene, and nanocrystals, Ru(bpy)(3)(2+) ECL is one of the most widely studied ECL systems in recent years due to its broad applications in immunoassays, DNA probe assays, coreactants analysis, and aptasensors. In this review, the progress in Ru(bpy)(3)(2+) ECL has been summarized on the whole, and the future research trends have been proposed.
