Gold Nanoparticle-Catalyzed Luminol Chemiluminescence and Its Analytical Applications

TL;DR: Gold colloids with nanoparticles of different sizes were found to enhance the chemiluminescence (CL) of the luminol-H2O2 system, and the most intensive CL signals were obtained with 38-nm-diameter gold nanoparticles.

Sulfate radical-based water treatment in presence of chloride: Formation of chlorate, inter-conversion of sulfate radicals into hydroxyl radicals and influence of bicarbonate

TL;DR: At moderate Cl(-) concentrations (mM range) the SO4(-)-based process may be converted into a conventional (hydroxyl radical -based) advanced oxidation process and the conversion of SO4(-) into OH, however, is interrupted in presence of bicarbonate by scavenging of Cl.

Luminol and lucigenin as detectors for O2ṡ

TL;DR: The assumption that luminol or lucigenin reacts with O2 in a way leading to luminescence is incorrect, and leads to misinterpretation of results as discussed by the authors, and the chemical reactions leading to the O2(−)-dependent luminescences of luminol and of lignin are discussed.

Forensic application of the luminol reaction as a presumptive test for latent blood detection

TL;DR: This review provides an historical overview of the forensic use of luminol, and the current understanding of the reaction mechanism with particular reference to the catalysis by blood.
