Biofuel cells and their development
TL;DR: While considerable chemical development of enzyme electrodes has occurred, relatively little progress has been made towards the engineering development of biofuel cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enzymes as working or inspirational electrocatalysts for fuel cells and electrolysis.
TL;DR: Fuel cells vary greatly in their power output, ranging from large-scale building-integrated systems, known as “combined heat and power” systems, to those that provide just enough power to operate electronics in special circumstances, such as an implanted device for sensing and controlling glucose levels in the body.

Microfluidic fuel cells: A review
TL;DR: A review of the development of microfluidic fuel cells can be found in this paper, with an emphasis on theory, fabrication, unit cell development, performance achievements, design considerations, and scale-up options.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enzyme-based biofuel cells
TL;DR: Recent advances in biofuel cell technology have addressed deficiencies and include methods to increase lifetime and environmental stability, but remain limited by short lifetimes, low power densities and inefficient oxidation of fuels.

A methanol/dioxygen biofuel cell that uses NAD+-dependent dehydrogenases as catalysts: application of an electro-enzymatic method to regenerate nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide at low overpotentials
TL;DR: Results reflect the low overpotential at which NADH is oxidized and demonstrate a new approach to lowering voltage losses in biofuel cells due to activation overpotentials.

A biofuel cell with electrochemically switchable and tunable power output.
Eugenii Katz,Itamar Willner +1 more
TL;DR: An electroswitchable and tunable biofuel cell based on the biocatalyzed oxidation of glucose is described, which allows for the controlling of the content of conductive domains in the films and the tuning of the output power of theBiofuel cell.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improving the environment for immobilized dehydrogenase enzymes by modifying Nafion with tetraalkylammonium bromides.
TL;DR: The ability to immobilize dehydrogenase enzymes in Nafion that has been modified with quaternary ammonium bromides is examined to determine the activity of the immobilized enzyme and to examine the transport of coenzyme within the membrane.
