Biofuel Cells Based on Wired Enzyme Assemblies

Biofuel Cells Based on Wired Enzyme Assemblies 

The current-voltage behavior of the biofuel cell at different external loads and at optimized concentrations of the oxidizer and fuel substrates are shown in Fig. 28(b). Up to 32 pW could be extracted at an external load of 3 kS2 (Fig. 28b, inset). The configuration of this biofuel cell represents a very general method for the development of future biofuel cell elements as it can be extended to other oxidative enzymes and fuel substrates, such as methanol oxidase or lactate oxidase and the respective alcohol or lactic acid fuel substances.
