Enhancing Catalytic Activity of Bioanode for Glucose Biofuel Cell by Compressing Enzyme, Mediator and Carbon Support through Centrifugation

Enhancing Catalytic Activity of Bioanode for Glucose Biofuel Cell by Compressing Enzyme, Mediator and Carbon Support through Centrifugation
Hirotaka Sato, Desmond Chun Long Tan
Through centrifugation, glucose oxidase, ferrocenemethanol (mediator), and graphene-support mixed in solution can be compressed. The respective components are able to interact with higher mobility. Improved immobilization of glucose oxidase and ferrocenemethanol can also be achieved in the graphene layers, where enhanced electron transfer can be observed via mediators. These results open opportunities for the fabrication of electrodes for diverse enzyme–mediator conjugates in biofuel cells. More information can be found in the Communication by D. C. L. Tan and H. Sato (DOI: 10.1002/chem.201702100).
