A novel competitive electrochemiluminescence (ECL) aptasensor was designed for the detection of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) using carbon-coated petalous CdS nanopaticles (CdS-C petalous nanoparticles) as an ECL emitter and DNAzyme/Au nanorods-complementary DNA as a quenching probe. The quenching probe was firstly prepared by assembling guanine (G)-rich ssDNA and cDNA on Au nanorods and then reacting with hemin to form hemin/G-quadruplex DNAzyme units. CdS-C nanoparticles were synthesized and employed as the matrix for the construction of the CdS-C/Chit/aptamer platform. In the absence of CEA, the DNAzyme/Au nanorods as the quenching probe can be introduced by hybridization with aptamer on the surface of the sensing platform. In this state, DNAzyme immobilized on the probe catalyzes the reduction of H

, producing a decreased ECL emission. Upon both CEA and quenching probe addition, competitive reaction of the quenching probe and CEA with capture aptamer immobilized on the electrode occurred and thus resulted in the decreased amount of quenching probe on the electrode, which decreased the consumption of H
