Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An enzyme electrode having an electroconductive base member, an oxidoreductase and an electron mediator has at least a portion (a) in which the oxidoreductase is immobilized on the electroconductive base member, and a portion (b) in which the electron mediator is immobilized on the electroconductive base member but the oxidoreductase is not immobilized on the electroconductive base member. A bio fuel cell having the enzyme electrode as at least one of an anode and a cathode allows optimization of a reaction condition of each one of a plurality of reaction steps, including an “enzymatic reaction”, an “electron transfer reaction”, etc. Thus, the bio fuel cell provides high output.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A fuel cell comprising: an enzyme electrode that incorporates a first electroconductive base member, a second electroconductive base member, an oxidoreductase and an electron mediator; and a fuel solution containing nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide as a coenzyme operable to assist the oxidoreductase, wherein the enzyme electrode includes: a first portion in which the oxidoreductase is immobilized on the first electroconductive base member; a…
