“…[38,39] Furthermore, BODs are quite stable at neutral pH. [68,69] They have been identified in various fungi and bacteria, and can exhibit chloride, urate, dithiothreitol (DTT) and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) tolerance. Some of them also present thermostable properties.…”

“…MET is, however, efficiently achieved through redox hydrogels for MCOs, such as osmium-based polymers, the potentials of which can be tuned to mediate the catalysis. [69,313] In this case, electron hopping between the neighboring mediator entities allows connection between the enzymes and the electrode. Moreover, T. roseopersicina Hase was entrapped in sol-gel material doped with CNTs, [314] and showed stability over weeks.…”

Among sustainable alternatives to fossil fuel, proton exchange membrane fuel cells are promising devices that deliver electricity from hydrogen and oxygen, producing only water. The transformation of the fuel and oxidant however relies on rare‐metal catalysts. H2/O2 enzymatic biofuel cells thus emerge as sustainable biotechnological devices in which chemical catalysts are replaced by hydrogenases at the anode and multicopper oxidases at the cathode. This review discusses the recent breakthroughs and the limitations in all the components of H2/O2 biofuel cells: 1) Catalytic mechanisms involved in multicopper oxidases and hydrogenases, in addition to the new potential of enzymes from the biodiversity pool, which exhibit outstanding properties. 2) The molecular basis for oriented enzyme immobilization on the electrochemical interfaces as a prerequisite for a fast direct electron‐transfer rate. 3) The requirement for 3D networks to enhance current densities. 4) The production of H2 from biomass. 5) The history of H2/O2 biofuel cells and recent devices, which also highlights the remaining issues that will allow the use of such devices in low‐power applications.

“…Enzymes such as multicopper oxidases (MCOs) belonging to oxidoreductase family can reduce oxygen into water performing oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). These reactions have been extensively studied and described in previous literature [1][2][3][4]. The most common "Blue" MCO enzymes are ascorbate oxidase (AOx), laccase (Lac), and bilirubin oxidase (BOx) that can act as excellent biocathode materials for biofuel cell applications [5,6].…”

Recent studies have focused on tailoring the catalytic currents of multicopper oxidase (MCO) enzymes-based biocathodes to enhance oxygen reduction. Biocathodes modified with natural substrates specific for MCO enzymes demonstrated drastic improvement for oxygen reduction. Performance of 1-pyrenebutanoic acid, succinimidyl ester (PBSE), and 2,5-dimethyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carbaldehyde (Di-Carb) oriented bilirubin oxidase (BOx) modified gas diffusion biocathode has been highly improved by incorporating hematin, a porphyrin precursor as electron transfer enhancement moiety. Hematin modified electrodes demonstrated direct electron transfer reaction of BOx exhibiting larger O 2 reduction in current density in phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.0) without the need of a mediator. A remarkable improvement in the catalytic currents with 2.5-fold increase compared to non-hematin modified oriented BOx electrodes was achieved. Moreover, a mediatorless and compartmentless glucose/O 2 biofuel cell based on DET-type bioelectrocatalysis via the BOx cathode and the glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) anode demonstrated peak power densities of 1 mW/cm 2 at pH 7.0 with 100 mM glucose/10 mM NAD fuel. The maximum current density of 1.6 mA/cm 2 and the maximum power density of 0.4 mW/cm 2 were achieved at 300 mV with nonmodified BOx cathode, while 3.5 mA/cm 2 and 1.1 mW/cm 2 of current and power density were achieved with hematin modified cathode. The performance improved 2.4 times which attributes to the hematin acting as a natural precursor and activator for BOx activity enhancement.

“…Direct electron transfer reactions between proteins (enzymes) and electrodes have been extensively studied from the viewpoints of both, understanding the fundamental features and for applications as biosensors and biofuel cell [5][6][7][8][9][10][11]. Typically, enzymatic biofuel cell has been focused because of their possibility to harvest energy out of non-toxic and non-combustible compounds like sugar opened the way for glucose biofuel cells [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. However, the transfer of electrons involved in the redox reactions to an external circuit is a challenging theme.…”

Fast electron transfer between laccase (Lac) and single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) can be achieved at a cholate-modified SWCNT interface. Furthermore, the catalytic reduction of O 2 starts at a high potential, close to the equilibrium redox potential of the O 2 /H 2 O couple. A sodium cholate (SC)-modified electrode interface provides suitable conditions for Lac direct bioelectrocatalysis. In the present study, the SC promotional effect in Lac direct bioelectrocatalysis was investigated using various types of electrode materials. The fully hydrophilic surface of indium tin oxide and an Au electrode surface did not show a SC promotional effect, because SC did not bind to these surfaces. A carbon surface with a large number of defects was unsuitable for SC binding because of hydrophilic functional groups at the defect sites. Carbon surfaces with few defects, for example, basal-plane highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG), gave a SC promotional effect.
