In this work, a simple, sensitive, and selective method for the determination of silver ions (Ag⁺) was proposed on the basis of the enhancement of Ag⁺ on the electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) of peroxydisulfate (S₂O₈ ²⁻), which can be attributed to the obvious electrocatalytic reduction of S₂O₈ ²⁻ by Ag⁺, giving rise to more abundant sulfate radical anion (SO₄ •⁻). Under optimal conditions, a linear range from 4 to 500 nM (R = 0.997) with a detection limit of 2.5 nM (S/N = 3) was achieved for the detection of Ag⁺. The Ag⁺/S₂O₈ ²⁻ ECL system could not only provide an assay protocol for the determination of Ag⁺ but also offer an effective way to enhance the ECL of S₂O₈ ²⁻, which may act as a promising platform for the detection of other species such as 4-chlorophenol.
