To determine the intrinsic effects of body elements on the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) of metal nanoclusters (NCs), herein, a valence-state engineering strategy is developed to adjust the NCs’ ECL with bovine serum albumin (BSA)-stabilized AuNCs as a model, in which engineering the valence state...
