Abstract
The possible effects of ionizing radiation on four commercial membranes, which are typically used as electrolytes in fuel cells supplying energy to a huge variety of medical implantable devices, were studied. These devices could obtain energy from the biological environment through a glucose fuel cell, which could be a good candidate to replace conventional batteries as a power source. In these applications, materials with high radiation stability for the fuel cell elements would be disabled. The polymeric membrane is one of the key elements in fuel cells. Membrane swelling properties are very important because they affect the fuel cell's performance. For this reason, the swelling behaviors of various samples of each membrane irradiated with different doses were analyzed. Each sample was irradiated with a typical dose of a conventional radiotherapy treatment, and the regular conditions of the biological working environment were simulated. The target was to examine the possible effect of the received radiation on the membranes. The results show that the ionizing radiation influenced their swelling properties, as well as that dimensional changes were dependent on the existence of reinforcement, be it internal or external, in the membrane structure.

Abstract
Currently available bioelectronic devices consume too much power to be continuously operated on rechargeable batteries, and are often powered wirelessly, with attendant issues regarding reliability, convenience, and mobility. Thus, the availability of a robust, self-sufficient, implantable electrical power generator that works under physiological conditions would be transformative for many applications, from driving bioelectronic implants and prostheses to programing cellular behavior and patients' metabolism. Here, capitalizing on a new copper-containing, conductively tuned 3D carbon nanotube composite, an implantable blood-glucose-powered metabolic fuel cell is designed that continuously monitors blood-glucose levels, converts excess glucose into electrical power during hyperglycemia, and produces sufficient energy (0.7 mW cm-2 , 0.9 V, 50 mm glucose) to drive opto- and electro-genetic regulation of vesicular insulin release from engineered beta cells. It is shown that this integration of blood-glucose monitoring with elimination of excessive blood glucose by combined electro-metabolic conversion and insulin-release-mediated cellular consumption enables the metabolic fuel cell to restore blood-glucose homeostasis in an automatic, self-sufficient, and closed-loop manner in an experimental model of type-1 diabetes.

Abstract
Catalysts with high catalytic activity and good stability are desirable in the electrocatalytic oxidation of glucose. Herein, Pt concave nanocubes with high-index facets (HIFs) supported by carbon black (Pt CNC/CB) are prepared through a hydrothermal method. The experimental results demonstrate that the peak current densities in different potential regions on the Pt CNC/CB anode are 0.22, 0.20, and 0.60 mA cm-2. The catalytic process of the glucose oxidation reaction is investigated in electrolytes with different pH values. Better stability is achieved by Pt CNC/CB than by Pt concave nanocubes (Pt CNCs). Abundant surface defects with low-coordinated atom numbers, such as steps, kinks, and edges, served as active sites in the electrocatalytic oxidation of glucose. With the addition of carbon black, the catalytic activity can be improved by facilitating the full exposure of the active surface defects on the HIFs of the Pt CNCs. Moreover, to address the aggregation of Pt CNCs, caused by the high surface energy of HIFs, the introduction of carbon material is an effective way to preserve the HIFs and thus enhance the stability of the catalyst. Hence, the prepared Pt CNC/CB electrocatalyst has great potential to be applied in the electrooxidation of glucose.

Abstract
InN/InGaN quantum dots (QDs) are introduced as an efficient photoanode for a novel abiotic one-compartment photofuel cell (PFC) with a Pt cathode and glucose as a biofuel. Due to the high catalytic activity and selectivity of the InN/InGaN QDs toward oxidation reactions, the PFC operates without a membrane under physiologically mild conditions at medium to low glucose concentrations with a noble-metal-free photoanode. A relatively high short-circuit photocurrent density of 0.56 mA/cm2 and a peak output power density of 0.22 mW/cm2 are achieved under 1 sun illumination for a 0.1 M glucose concentration with optimized InN/InGaN QDs of the right size. The super-linear dependence of the short-circuit photocurrent density and the output power density as a function of the logarithmic glucose concentration makes the PFC well suited for sensing, covering the 4-6 mM range of glucose concentration in blood under normal conditions with good selectivity. No degradation of the PFC operation over time is observed.

Abstract
It is necessary to apply a nonenzymatic glucose fuel cell using a proton exchange membrane for an implantable biomedical device that operates at low power. The permeability of glucose with high viscosity and a large molecular weight in the porous medium of the diffusion layer was investigated for use in fuel cells. Carbon paper was prepared as an anode diffusion layer, and it was analyzed with a diffusion layer treated with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and a microporous layer (MPL). When untreated carbon paper was applied, the peak power density (PPD) and open-circuit voltage (OCV) increased as the glucose concentration and flow rate increased. On this occasion, the highest PPD of 17.81 μW cm-2 was achieved at 3 mM and a 2.0 mL min-1 glucose aqueous solution (at atmospheric pressure and 36.5 °C). The diffusion layer, which became more hydrophobic through PTFE treatment, adversely affected glucose permeability. In addition, the addition of an MPL decreased OCV and PPD with increasing glucose concentrations and flow rates. Compared with untreated carbon paper, the PPD was six times lower approximately. Consequently, it was confirmed that the properties of carbon paper, such as low hydrophobicity, high porosity, and thin thickness, would be advantageous for nonenzymatic glucose fuel cells.

Abstract
The appearance and evolution of biofuel cells can be categorized into three groups: microbial biofuel cells (MBFCs), enzymatic biofuel cells (EBFCs), and enzyme-like nanomaterial (nanozyme)-based biofuel cells (NBFCs). MBFCs can produce electricity from waste; however, they have significantly low power output as well as difficulty in controlling electron transfer and microbial growth. EBFCs are more productive in generating electricity with the assistance of natural enzymes, but their vulnerability under diverse environmental conditions has critically hindered practical applications. In contrast, because of the intrinsic advantages of nanozymes, such as high stability and robustness even in harsh conditions, low synthesis cost through facile scale-up, and tunable catalytic activity, NBFCs have attracted attention, particularly for developing wearable and implantable devices to generate electricity from glucose in the physiological fluids of plants, animals, and humans. In this review, recent studies on NBFCs, including the synthetic strategies and catalytic activities of metal and metal oxide-based nanozymes, the mechanism of electricity generation from glucose, and representative studies are reviewed and discussed. Current challenges and prospects for the utilization of nanozymes in glucose biofuel cells are also discussed.

Abstract
This study intends to provide new TiO2/phosphorous-functionalized cellulose acetate (Ph-CA) nanocomposite membranes for direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs). A series of TiO2/Ph-CA membranes were fabricated via solution casting technique using a systematic variation of TiO2 nanoparticle content. Chemical structure, morphological changes, and thermal properties of the as-fabricated nanocomposite membranes were investigated by FTIR, TGA, SEM, and AFM analysis tools. Further, membranes' performance, mechanical properties, water uptake, thermal-oxidative stability, and methanol permeability were also evaluated. The results clarified that the ion-exchange capacity (IEC) of the developed nanocomposite membranes improved and reached a maximum value of 1.13 and 2.01 meq/g at 25 and 80 °C, respectively, using TiO2 loading of 5 wt % compared to 0.6 and 0.81 meq/g for pristine Ph-CA membrane at the same temperature. Moreover, the TiO2/Ph-CA nanocomposite exhibited excellent thermal stability with appreciable mechanical properties (49.9 MPa). The developed membranes displayed a lower methanol permeability of 0.98 × 10-16 cm2 s-1 compared to 1.14 × 10-9 cm2 s-1 for Nafion 117. The obtained results suggested that the developed nanocomposite membranes could be potentially applied as promising polyelectrolyte membranes for possible use in DMFCs.

Abstract
This paper reports the analytical detection and energetic properties of a glucose-fed Direct Catalytic Fuel Cell (DCFC) operated in association with yeast cells (Saccharomyces Cerevisiae). The cell was tested in a potentiostatic mode, and the operating conditions were optimized to maximize the current produced by a given concentration of glucose. Results indicate that the DCFC is characterized by a glucose detection limit of the order to 21 mmol L−1. The cell was used to estimate the “pool” of carbohydrate content in commercial soft drinks. Furthermore, the use of different carbohydrates, such as fructose and sucrose, has been shown to result in a good current yield.

Abstract
A simple, cost-effective and green mucilage-capped silver nanoparticles (Mucilage-AgNPs) modified glassy carbon electrode (GC) composite was constructed for efficient and facile electrochemical oxidation of glucose for the first time. Mucilage-AgNPs were synthesized through the direct chemical reduction of Ag+ by mucilage extracted from Opuntia ficus-indica. Mucilage-AgNPs were identified and characterized using ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy and square wave voltammetry. Modification of the GC with AgNPs was carried out via a transfer-sticking technique with an immobilization time of 1 h. The Mucilage-AgNPs/GC composite was studied as a possible anode for glucose oxidation in a biofuel cell. The composite resulted in glucose oxidation with a current density and power density of 85.7 μA cm−2 and 25.7 μW cm−2, respectively. Glucose sensing using the Mucilage-AgNPs/GC composite was achieved successfully via two pathways: glucose oxidation and AgNP inhibition. The glucose oxidation-based sensor showed a lower detection limit of 0.01 mM and a linear range of 0.01 to 2.2 mM. The AgNPs inhibition-based sensor provides an indirect determination pathway of glucose with a detection limit of 0.1 mM and a linear range of 0.1 to 1.9 mM. AgNP inhibition is a novel pathway that could be used for determining a large number of organic and inorganic molecules. Overall, the Mucilage-AgNPs/GC is considered a pioneering composite for glucose sensing and fuel cell applications. A simple, cost-effective and green mucilage-capped silver nanoparticles (Mucilage-AgNPs) modified glassy carbon electrode (GC) composite was constructed for efficient and facile electrochemical oxidation of glucose for the first time.![]()
