A promising electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensing strategy was proposed with dual-stabilizers-capped CdSe quantum dots (QDs) as ECL emitters. The dual-stabilizers-capped CdSe QDs were covalently immobilized onto p-aminobenzoic acid modified glass carbon electrode with ethylenediamine as a link molecule. This strategy can preserve the completely passivated surface states of dual-stabilizers-capped CdSe QDs, so that the sensor demonstrated eye-visible greenish, band gap engineering and monochromatic ECL emission at 546 nm with a fwhm of 35 nm. Moreover, the proposed sensor could accurately quantify dopamine from 10.0 nM to 3.0 mu M with a detection limit of 3.0 nM in practical drug, human urine, and cerebrospinal fluid samples without any signal amplification techniques. This strategy is promising for developing ECL sensors with high sensitivity and spectral selectivity.
