Abstract
Cationic magnetic hydrogel microparticles with high retention on cell surfaces were prepared using a two-step procedure. Using these magnetic hydrogel microparticles, cells were clustered with each other, and cell aggregates were prepared effectively. Cross-linked poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) hydrogel microparticles containing iron oxide nanoparticles were prepared. The diameter of the microparticles was in the range of 200-500 nm. Water-soluble cationic polymers containing both trimethyl ammonium (TMA) groups and phenylboronic acid (PBA) groups were synthesized for the surface modification of the microparticles. To regulate the composition, electrically neutral phosphorylcholine groups were introduced into the polymer. Covalent bonds were formed between the hydroxy groups of PVA microparticles and PBA groups in the polymer. The surface zeta potential of the microparticles reflected the composition of the TMA groups. The particles responded to an external magnetic field and clustered rapidly. Microparticles were adsorbed on the floating cell surface and induced cell aggregation quickly when a magnetic field was applied. Under the most effective conditions, the diameter of the cell aggregates increased to approximately 1 mm after 30 min. Denser cell aggregates were formed by the synergistic effects of the magnetic field and the properties of the microparticles. The formed cell aggregates continued to grow for more than 4 days under an applied magnetic field, indicating that the ability of the cells in the aggregate to proliferate was well maintained.

Abstract
Microbial electrochemical systems in which metabolic electrons in living microbes have been extracted to or injected from an extracellular electrical circuit have attracted considerable attention as environmentally-friendly energy conversion systems. Since general microbes cannot exchange electrons with extracellular solids, electron mediators are needed to connect living cells to an extracellular electrode. Although hydrophobic small molecules that can penetrate cell membranes are commonly used as electron mediators, they cannot be dissolved at high concentrations in aqueous media. The use of hydrophobic mediators in combination with small hydrophilic redox molecules can substantially increase the efficiency of the extracellular electron transfer process, but this method has side effects, in some cases, such as cytotoxicity and environmental pollution. In this Review, recently-developed redox-active polymers are highlighted as a new type of electron mediator that has less cytotoxicity than many conventional electron mediators. Owing to the design flexibility of polymer structures, important parameters that affect electron transport properties, such as redox potential, the balance of hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity, and electron conductivity, can be systematically regulated.

Abstract
In this research, a 9,10-phenanthrenequinone (PQ) was electrochemically polymerized on a graphite rod electrode using potential cycling. The electrode modified by poly-9,10-phenanthrenequinone (poly-PQ) was studied by means of cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The poly-PQ shows variations in growth pattern depending on the number of potential cycles for the initiation of polymerization. Formed poly-PQ layer demonstrates good electric conductivity, great degree of electrochemical capacitance and unique oxidation/reduction properties, which are suitable for broad technological applications, including applicability in biosensors, supercapacitors and in some other electrochemical systems.

Abstract
A polyelectrolyte film-coated electrode for the quantitative detection of glucose was reported. Carbon nanotubes, graphene oxide and polyelectrolyte with a ferrocenyl group were used to modify an enzyme electrode to facilitate the electron transfer between glucose oxidase and the electrode. Cyclic voltammetry and amperometric methods were adopted to investigate the effects of different polyelectrolytes and carbon nanomaterials on the electrochemical properties of enzyme electrodes. The results indicate that the ferrocenyl groups on a polyelectrolyte skeleton act as a mediator between the redox center of glucose oxidase and the electrode, which efficiently enhances the electron transfer between a glassy carbon electrode and glucose oxidase. The calibration curve of the sensor shows a linear range from 0.2 to 5 mM for glucose response. The sensor can achieve 95% of the steady-state current within 10 s. The electrodes also present high operational stability and long-term storage stability.

Abstract
Recent progress in the development of phenylboronic acid (PBA)-functionalized layer-by-layer (LbL) assemblies and their biomedical applications was reviewed. Stimuli-sensitive LbL films and microcapsules that exhibit permeability changes or decompose in response to sugars and hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) have been developed using PBA-bearing polymers. The responses of PBA-modified LbL assemblies arise from the competitive binding of sugars to PBA in the films or oxidative decomposition of PBA by H₂O₂. Electrochemical glucose sensors have been fabricated by coating the surfaces of electrodes by PBA-modified LbL films, while colorimetric and fluorescence sensors can be prepared by modifying LbL films with boronic acid-modified dyes. In addition, PBA-modified LbL films and microcapsules have successfully been used in the construction of drug delivery systems (DDS). Among them, much effort has been devoted to the glucose-triggered insulin delivery systems, which are constructed by encapsulating insulin in PBA-modified LbL films and microcapsules. Insulin is released from the PBA-modified LbL assemblies upon the addition of glucose resulting from changes in the permeability of the films or decomposition of the film entity. Research into insulin DDS is currently focused on the development of high-performance devices that release insulin in response to diabetic levels of glucose (>10 mM) but remain stable at normal levels (~5 mM) under physiological conditions.

Abstract
We propose a spinning-assisted layer-by-layer method for simple fabrication of a multilayered polymer hydrogel membrane that contains living cells. Hydrogel formation occurred based on the spontaneous cross-linking reaction between two polymers in aqueous solution. A water-soluble 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine polymer bearing phenylboronic acid groups (PMBV) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) were used as polymers for hydrogel membrane formation. Changing the number of hydrogel membrane layers, polymer concentration, spinning rate, and processing time for diffusion-dependent gelation of PMBV and PVA facilitated the regulation of the multilayered polymer hydrogel membrane thickness and morphology. We concluded that a multilayered polymer hydrogel membrane prepared using 5.0 wt% PMBV and 5.0 wt% PVA at a spinning rate of 2000 rpm was suitable for precise spatial control of cells in single layers. This multilayered polymer hydrogel membrane was used to prepare a single cell-laden layer to minimize barriers to the diffusion of bioactive compounds while preserving the three-dimensional (3-D) context. The pharmaceutical effects of one of the anticancer agents, paclitaxel, on a human cervical cancer line, HeLa cells, were evaluated in vitro, and the usability of this culture model was demonstrated.

Abstract
This article reviews recent progress in the development of ferrocene (Fc)-modified thin films and nanoparticles in relation to their biosensor applications. Redox-active materials in enzyme biosensors commonly use Fc derivatives, which mediate electron transfer between the electrode and enzyme active site. Either voltammetric or amperometric signals originating from redox reactions of Fc are detected or modulated by the binding of analytes on the electrode. Fc-modified thin films have been prepared by a variety of protocols, including insitu polymerization, layer-by-layer (LbL) deposition, host-guest complexation and molecular recognitions. Insitu polymerization provides a facile way to form Fc thin films, because the Fc polymers are directly deposited onto the electrode surface. LbL deposition, which can modulate the film thickness and Fc content, is suitable for preparing well-organized thin films. Other techniques, such as host-guest complexation and protein-based molecular recognition, are useful for preparing Fc thin films. Fc-modified Au nanoparticles have been widely used as redox-active materials to fabricate electrochemical biosensors. Fc derivatives are often attached to Au nanoparticles through a thiol-Au linkage. Nanoparticles consisting of inorganic porous materials, such as zeolites and iron oxide, and nanoparticle-based composite materials have also been used to prepare Fc-modified nanoparticles. To construct biosensors, Fc-modified nanoparticles are immobilized on the electrode surface together with enzymes.

Abstract
Using structural characterizations and electrochemical measurements, we explored and investigated the effect of the structure of enzyme electrodes with glucose oxidase (GOD) that were modified by reduced graphene oxide (rGO) sheets. The rGO sheets with different defect density, layers, and oxygen concentrations were chosen to modify the enzyme electrode, and all the modified enzyme electrodes exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activities and performances towards glucose. The abundant defects in rGO induce easy absorption of GOD. At a low oxygen concentration, rGO sheets help to induce the direct electron transfer (DET) on the rGO-modified electrode, and at a higher oxygen concentration, the reduction of H2O2 occurred instead of DET on the surface of the rGO-modified electrode. When rGO modified the enzyme electrode under the working model of H2O2 reduction, an increase in the number of the oxygen functional groups could lead to an increase in the absorption of GOD, resulting in the improvement of the affinity and sensitivity of the biosensor. The rGO-modified enzyme electrode can provide faster response, higher sensitivity, and better affinity by optimizing and controlling the structure of graphene and its derivatives.

Abstract
A redox-active phospholipid polymer with a phospholipid-mimicking structure (2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine; MPC) was synthesized to construct a biocompatible electron mediator between bacteria and an electrode. In this study, a copolymer of MPC and vinylferrocene [VF; poly(MPC-co-VF)] (PMF) is synthesized. When PMF is added to cultures of the bacterial species Escherichia coli (Gram negative) and Lactobacillus plantarum (Gram positive), which have different cell wall structures, a catalytic current mediated by PMF is observed. In addition, growth curves and live/dead assays indicate that PMF does not decrease metabolic activity or cell viability. These results indicate that PMF mediates extracellular electron transfer across bacterial cell membranes without associated cytotoxicity.
