Fructose/dioxygen biofuel cell based on direct electron transfer-type bioelectrocatalysis.
One-compartment biofuel cells without separators have been constructed, in which d-fructose dehydrogenase (FDH) from Gluconobacter sp. and laccase from Trametes sp. (TsLAC) work as catalysts of direct electron transfer (DET)-type bioelectrocatalysis in the two-electron oxidation of d-fructose and four-electron reduction of dioxygen as fuels, respectively. FDH adsorbs strongly and stably on Ketj...
متن کاملImprovement of a direct electron transfer-type fructose/dioxygen biofuel cell with a substrate-modified biocathode.
The fructose/dioxygen biofuel cell, one of the direct electron transfer (DET)-type bioelectrochemical devices, utilizes fructose dehydrogenase (FDH) on the anode and multi-copper oxidase such as bilirubin oxidase (BOD) on the cathode as catalysts. The power density in the literature is limited by the biocathode performance. We show that the DET-type biocathode performance is greatly improved, w...
متن کاملA miniature biofuel cell operating in a physiological buffer.
A glucose-O2 biofuel cell, consisting only of two electrocatalyst coated 7-mum diameter, 2-cm long carbon fibers is reported. The cell operated continuously at 0.52 V at 37 degrees C in a physiological buffer solution for a week, producing 1.9 muW during the first and 1.0 muW during the last day, generating in the period 0.9 J of electrical energy while passing a charge of 1.7 C. If a similar d...
متن کاملElectron Transfer in Dye-Sensitized Nanocrystalline TiO2 Solar Cell
The dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) have been regarded as one of the most promising new generation solar cells. Tremendous research efforts have been invested to improve the efficiency of solar energy conversion which is generally determined by the light harvesting efficiency, electron injection efficiency and undesirable electron lifetime. In this review, various characteristics of dye-...
متن کاملPower Harvesting from Human Serum in Buckypaper-Based Enzymatic Biofuel Cell
The requirement for a miniature, high density, long life, and rechargeable power source is common to a vast majority of microsystems, including the implantable devices for medical applications. A model biofuel cell system operating in human serum has been studied for future applications of biomedical and implantable medical devices. Anodic and cathodic electrodes were made of carbon nanotube-bu...
