Electrode design paves way for better biofuel cells, electrochemical devices

Posted: 24 May 2022 08:06 AM PDT

Most biofuel cells provide low power output and short-term operational stability due to their poor electron transfer between enzymes and electrodes and between neighboring enzymes. These electron transfer issues are closely related to the performance of almost all electrochemical sensors, including BFCs and other bioelectronics. In a new paper, scientists address these shortcomings via an amphiphilic assembly designed to prepare high-performance biofuel cells.
