In this paper, an intensive and glow-type chemiluminescence (CL) hydrogel was prepared by simultaneous incorporation of chemiluminescence reagent (luminol) and catalytic cofactor (hemin) into the scaffold of guanosine-derived hydrogel. The self-assembled hydrogel consisted of K⁺ stabilized hemin/G-quartet structures, showing significant enzyme-like activity to H₂O₂-mediated oxidation of luminol. After adding H₂O₂ into the hydrogel, blue light visible to naked eyes would come into being and last for over 8 h. The lasting-time CL emission of hydrogel was achieved due to a mechanism of slow-diffusion-controlled heterogeneous catalysis. Moreover, this self-assembled hydrogel performed a good response to H₂O₂ and the CL emission images could be recorded by smartphone. The hydrogel could remain excellent lifetime stability for months and the stable, enhanced and glow-type CL emission could improve the reliability and precision of CL detection, which has a promising application in cold light source and H₂O₂ detection of real biological samples.
