- Abstract
Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is an electrochemically induced light produced by the excitation of luminophores in redox reactions. For the past twenty years, ECL analysis has been continuously developed and applied for the sensitive detection of biomolecules at the single-cell level due to its low background interference and the resultant high sensitivity. In recent times, ECL-based microscopy has combined the elements of imaging and has thus emerged as a fast-developed imaging tool to visualize biomolecules in single cells. The surface-confined features of ECL imaging provide detailed information about cell membranes that is not easily obtained using classical fluorescence microscopy. In this review, we summarize the recent works on the detection and imaging of biomolecules at the single-cell level using ECL and discuss the development prospects and challenges in the biological application of this technology in the field of cell analysis.
