Mediated Enzyme Electrodes with Combined Micro- and Nanoscale Supports

چکیده
We report the electrochemical performance of a redox polymer-mediated glucose anode catalyzed by glucose oxidase and supported on a multiscale carbon material. The support is composed of carbon paper upon which is grown multiwall nanotubes by chemical vapor deposition combined with ohmic heating of the carbon paper. The material possessed 100-fold higher surface area and demonstrated tenfold higher electrochemical performance, compared to bare carbon paper. Maximum performance is limited by biocatalyst and reactant transport in the microand nanoscale pores of the support material. © 2007 The Electrochemical Society.

Manganese oxide micro-supercapacitors with ultra-high areal capacitance.
A symmetric micro-supercapacitor is constructed by electrochemically depositing manganese oxide onto micro-patterned current collectors. High surface-to-volume ratio of manganese oxide and short diffusion distance between electrodes give an ultra-high areal capacitance of 56.3 mF cm(-2) at a current density of 27.2 μA cm(-2).

Background: Organophosphorus pesticides has been widely used in agriculture fields to control various crop insects and their extensive use pose human life at threat because of their adverse effects on human health. In this study, we checked the effects of GST polymorphism on ameliorative effect of curcumin and carvacrol against DNA damages. Methods: Comet assay was used to assess the DNA dam...
متن کاملFree-standing Ag/C coaxial hybrid electrodes as anodes for Li-ion batteries.
Free-standing coaxially structured Ag/carbon hybrid electrodes were prepared as potential anodes for micro-Li-ion batteries, which show excellent electrochemical performance, being essentially due to the beneficial effect of the unique structure, i.e. the Ag-core enhances the flexibility and electrochemical kinetics, while the carbon shell buffers volumetric change during cycling.
متن کاملGuided assembly of metal and hybrid conductive probes using floating potential dielectrophoresis.
We present the site-selective, parallel and reproducible formation of conductive gold and tetrathiafulvalene-gold (TTF-Au) hybrid micro- and nanowires from their respective ion salt and cation-radical solutions. While the formation of micro- and nanowires by means of dielectrophoresis with directly coupled electrodes has been thoroughly investigated in recent studies, we present here the first ...
متن کاملDesign and Fabrication of Glucose/O2 Enzymatic Biofuel Cell
Enzyme-based biofuel cells (EBFCs) are systems that use a variety of organic compounds to produce electricity through oxido-reductase enzymes, such as oxidase or dehydrogenase as biocatalysts immobilized on electrodes. In this study, a single-chamber EBFC consisting of carbon electrodes that operating at ambient temperature in phosphate buffer, pH 7 is reported. The EBFC anode was based on gluc...
