Abstract
In the paper, 2,4,5-tri(2-furyl)-1H-imidazole (TFI) and 2-phenyl-4,5-di(2-furyl)-1H-imidazole (PDFI), were chosen to investigate chemiluminescence (CL) properties of 2-substituted-4,5-di(2-furyl)-1H-imidazoles. The directly oxidized CL of analytes by potassium permanganate (KMnO4) was in detail studied. The KMnO4 could directly oxidize TFI/PDFI to produce strong CL emission in acidic solution. The effects of experimental conditions were investigated. Under the optimal conditions, the effect of albumin on the TFI/PDFI-KMnO4 system was investigated. It was found that the addition of albumin into the system could induce enhancement of CL signal, and the enhanced CL intensity is linearly related to the logarithm of concentration of albumin. Based on this study, a novel CL method has been developed for the determination of albumin with high sensitivity and good selectivity. The method was applied to the determination of albumin in human serum samples, and the results were in agreement with those obtained by the bromcresol green (BCG) method. The relative errors for the analytical results were from −5.8% to 4.2%. These new phenomena would further enable people to exploit more CL analytical application of the heterocyclic imidazole derivatives.
