Abstract: In this study, a novel potential-resolved ratiometric electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensor, using Ru(bpy)32+ doped TiO2 nanoparticles (TiO2-Ru(bpy)32+ NPs) with polyethyleneimine (PEI) capped CdS quantum dots (PEI-CdS QDs) as new ECL emitter unit and molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) as recognition element, was proposed for the first time. Owing to the large specific surface area and porosity of TiO2 NPs plentiful Ru(bpy)32+ was well immobilized on them. The obtained TiO2-Ru(bpy)32+ NPs were able to catalyze the reduction of coreactant H2O2 of PEI-CdS QDs, while the PEI-CdS QDs could serve as the coreactant of TiO2-Ru(bpy)32+ NPs, thus their ECL was promoted by each other. Additionally, graphene oxide (GO) was used to facilitate the electron transfer and sialic acid (SA) imprinted poly(3-aminophenylboronic acid) was electrodeposited on the resulting GO/TiO2-Ru(bpy)32+@PEI-CdS/GCE. When SA concentration increased the anodic ECL signal from TiO2-Ru(bpy)32+ NPs increased, while the cathodic ECL signal from PEI-CdS QDs declined. The sensor exhibited high sensitivity, selectivity and stability. Under the optimized conditions, the linear range was 1.0 nM - 0.1 mM and the detection limit was low to 0.017 nM (S/N = 3). Its good practical feasibility was confirmed by detecting SA in real samples with satisfactory results
