Abstract
Electrosynthesis is a popular, environmentally friendly substitute for conventional organic methods. It involves using charge transfer to stimulate chemical reactions through the application of a potential or current between two electrodes. In addition to electrode materials and the type of reactor employed, the strategies for controlling potential and current have an impact on the yields, product distribution, and reaction mechanism. In this Review, recent advances related to electroanalysis applied in electrosynthesis were discussed. The first part of this study acts as a guide that emphasizes the foundations of electrosynthesis. These essentials include instrumentation, electrode selection, cell design, and electrosynthesis methodologies. Then, advances in electroanalytical techniques applied in organic, enzymatic, and microbial electrosynthesis are illustrated with specific cases studied in recent literature. To conclude, a discussion of future possibilities that intend to advance the academic and industrial areas is presented.

J Inorg Biochem 2024; 253:112484. [PMID: 38219407 DOI: 10.1016/j.jinorgbio.2024.112484] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2023] [Revised: 01/05/2024] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 01/16/2024]
Abstract
The light-driven reduction of dinitrogen (N2) to ammonia (NH3) catalyzed by a cadmium sulfide (CdS) nanocrystal‑nitrogenase MoFe protein biohybrid is dependent on a range of different factors, including an appropriate hole-scavenging sacrificial electron donor (SED). Here, the impact of different SEDs on the overall rate of N2 reduction catalyzed by a CdS quantum dot (QD)-MoFe protein system was determined. The selection of SED was guided by several goals: (i) molecules with standard reduction potentials sufficient to reduce the oxidized CdS QD, (ii) molecules that do not absorb the excitation wavelength of the CdS QD, and (iii) molecules that could be readily reduced by sustainable processes. Earlier studies utilized buffer molecules or ascorbic acid as the SED. The effectiveness of ascorbic acid as SED was compared to dithionite (DT), triethanolamine (TEOA), and hydroquinone (HQ) across a range of concentrations in supporting N2 reduction to NH3 in a CdS QD-MoFe protein photocatalytic system. It was found that TEOA supported N2 reduction rates comparable to those observed for dithionite and ascorbic acid. HQ was found to support significantly higher rates of N2 reduction compared to the other SEDs at a concentration of 50 mM. A comparison of the rates of N2 reduction by the biohybrid complex to the standard reduction potential (Eo) of the SEDs reveals that Eo is not the only factor impacting the efficiency of hole-scavenging. These findings reveal the importance of the SED properties for improving the efficiency of hole-scavenging in the light-driven N2 reduction reaction catalyzed by a CdS QD-MoFe protein hybrid.

Abstract
The excessive consumption of fossil fuels causes massive emission of CO2, leading to climate deterioration and environmental pollution. The development of substitutes and sustainable energy sources to replace fossil fuels has become a worldwide priority. Bio-electrochemical systems (BESs), employing redox reactions of electroactive microorganisms (EAMs) on electrodes to achieve a meritorious combination of biocatalysis and electrocatalysis, provide a green and sustainable alternative approach for bioremediation, CO2 fixation, and energy and chemicals production. EAMs, including exoelectrogens and electrotrophs, perform extracellular electron transfer (EET) (i.e., outward and inward EET), respectively, to exchange energy with the environment, whose rate determines the efficiency and performance of BESs. Therefore, we review the synthetic biology strategies developed in the last decade for engineering EAMs to enhance the EET rate in cell-electrode interfaces for facilitating the production of electricity energy and value-added chemicals, which include (1) progress in genetic manipulation and editing tools to achieve the efficient regulation of gene expression, knockout, and knockdown of EAMs; (2) synthetic biological engineering strategies to enhance the outward EET of exoelectrogens to anodes for electricity power production and anodic electro-fermentation (AEF) for chemicals production, including (i) broadening and strengthening substrate utilization, (ii) increasing the intracellular releasable reducing equivalents, (iii) optimizing c-type cytochrome (c-Cyts) expression and maturation, (iv) enhancing conductive nanowire biosynthesis and modification, (v) promoting electron shuttle biosynthesis, secretion, and immobilization, (vi) engineering global regulators to promote EET rate, (vii) facilitating biofilm formation, and (viii) constructing cell-material hybrids; (3) the mechanisms of inward EET, CO2 fixation pathway, and engineering strategies for improving the inward EET of electrotrophic cells for CO2 reduction and chemical production, including (i) programming metabolic pathways of electrotrophs, (ii) rewiring bioelectrical circuits for enhancing inward EET, and (iii) constructing microbial (photo)electrosynthesis by cell-material hybridization; (4) perspectives on future challenges and opportunities for engineering EET to develop highly efficient BESs for sustainable energy and chemical production. We expect that this review will provide a theoretical basis for the future development of BESs in energy harvesting, CO2 fixation, and chemical synthesis.

Abstract
Bioelectrocatalytic synthesis is the conversion of electrical energy into value-added products using biocatalysts. These methods merge the specificity and selectivity of biocatalysis and energy-related electrocatalysis to address challenges in the sustainable synthesis of pharmaceuticals, commodity chemicals, fuels, feedstocks and fertilizers. However, the specialized experimental setups and domain knowledge for bioelectrocatalysis pose a significant barrier to adoption. This review introduces key concepts of bioelectrosynthetic systems. We provide a tutorial on the methods of biocatalyst utilization, the setup of bioelectrosynthetic cells, and the analytical methods for assessing bioelectrocatalysts. Key applications of bioelectrosynthesis in ammonia production and small-molecule synthesis are outlined for both enzymatic and microbial systems. This review serves as a necessary introduction and resource for the non-specialist interested in bioelectrosynthetic research.

Abstract
A formate (HCOO-) bioanode was developed by utilizing a phenothiazine-based electropolymerized layer deposited on sucrose-derived carbon. The electrode modified with NAD-dependent formate dehydrogenase and the electropolymerized layer synergistically catalyzed the oxidation of the coenzyme (NADH) and fuel (HCOO-) to achieve efficient electron transfer. Further, the replacement of carbon nanotubes with water-dispersible sucrose-derived carbon used as the electrode base allowed the fabrication of a surfactant-free bioanode delivering a maximum current density of 1.96 mA cm-2 in the fuel solution. Finally, a separator- and surfactant-free HCOO-/O2 biofuel cell featuring the above bioanode and a gas-diffusion biocathode modified with bilirubin oxidase and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate) was fabricated, delivering a maximum power density of 70 μW cm-2 (at 0.24 V) and an open-circuit voltage of 0.59 V. Thus, this study demonstrates the potential of formic acid as a fuel and possibilities for the application of carbon materials in bioanodes.

Abstract
Successful application of emerging bioelectrocatalysis technologies depends upon an efficient electrochemical interaction between redox enzymes as biocatalysts and conductive electrode surfaces. One approach to establishing such enzyme-electrode interfaces utilizes small redox-active molecules to act as electron mediators between an enzyme-active site and the electrode surface. While redox mediators have been successfully used in bioelectrocatalysis applications ranging from enzymatic electrosynthesis to enzymatic biofuel cells, they are often selected using a guess-and-check approach. Herein, we identify structure-function relationships in redox mediators that describe the bimolecular rate constant for its reaction with a model enzyme, glucose oxidase (GOx). Based on a library of quinone-based redox mediators, a quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) model is developed to describe the importance of mediator redox potential and projected molecular area as two key parameters for predicting the activity of quinone/GOx-based electroenzymatic systems. Additionally, rapid scan stopped-flow spectrophotometry was used to provide fundamental insights into the kinetics and the stoichiometry of reactions between different quinones and the flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD+/FADH2) cofactor of GOx. This work provides a critical foundation for both designing new enzyme-electrode interfaces and understanding the role that quinone structure plays in altering electron flux in electroenzymatic reactions.

Abstract
According to the latest statistics, more than 537 million people around the world struggle with diabetes and its adverse consequences. As well as acute risks of hypo- or hyper- glycemia, long-term vascular complications may occur, including coronary heart disease or stroke, as well as diabetic nephropathy leading to end-stage disease, neuropathy or retinopathy. Therefore, there is an urgent need to improve diabetes management to reduce the risk of complications but also to improve patient's quality life. The impact of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is well recognized, in this regard. The current review aims at introducing the basic principles of glucose sensing, including electrochemical and optical detection, summarizing CGM technology, its requirements, advantages, and disadvantages. The role of CGM systems in the clinical diagnostics/personal testing, difficulties in their utilization, and recommendations are also discussed. In the end, challenges and prospects in future CGM systems are discussed and non-invasive, wearable glucose biosensors are introduced. Though the scope of this review is CGMs and provides information about medical issues and analytical principles, consideration of broader use will be critical in future if the right systems are to be selected for effective diabetes management.

Abstract
It is essential to construct a biofuel cell-based sensor and develop an effective strategy to detect glucose without any potentiostat circuitry in order to create a simple and miniaturized device. In this report, an enzymatic biofuel cell (EBFC) is fabricated by the facile design of an anode and cathode on a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE). To construct the anode, thionine and flavin adenine dinucleotide-dependent glucose dehydrogenase (FAD-GDH) are covalently immobilized via a crosslinker to make a cross-linked redox network. As a cathode, the Pt-free oxygen reduction carbon catalyst is employed alternative to the commonly used bilirubin oxidase. We proposed the importance of EBFC-based sensors through the connection of anode and cathode; they can identify a short-circuit current by means of applied zero external voltage, thereby capable of glucose detection without under the operation of the potentiostat. The result shows that the EBFC-based sensor could be able to detect based on a short-circuit current with a wide range of glucose concentrations from 0.28 to 30 mM. Further, an EBFC is employed as a one-compartment model energy harvester with a maximum power density of (36 ± 3) μW cm- 2 in sample volume 5 μL. In addition, the constructed EBFC-based sensor demonstrates that the physiological range of ascorbic acid and uric acid shows no significant effect on the short-circuit current generation. Moreover, this EBFC can be used as a sensor in artificial plasma without losing its performance and thereby used as a disposable test strip in real blood sample analysis.

Abstract
Simple petrochemical feedstocks are often the starting material for the synthesis of complex commodity and fine and specialty chemicals. Designing synthetic pathways for these complex and specific molecular structures with sufficient chemo-, regio-, enantio-, and diastereo-selectivity can expand the existing petrochemicals landscape. The two overarching challenges in designing such pathways are selective activation of chemically inert C-H bonds in hydrocarbons and systematic functionalization to synthesize complex structures. Multienzyme cascades are becoming a growing means of overcoming the first challenge. However, extending multienzyme cascade designs is restricted by the arsenal of enzymes currently at our disposal and the compatibility between specific enzymes. Here, we couple a bioelectrocatalytic multienzyme cascade to organocatalysis, which are two distinctly different classes of catalysis, in a single system to address both challenges. Based on the development and utilization of an anthraquinone (AQ)-based redox polymer, the bioelectrocatalytic step achieves regioselective terminal C-H bond oxyfunctionalization of chemically inert n-heptane. A second biocatalytic step selectively oxidizes the resulting 1-heptanol to heptanal. The succeeding inherently simple and durable l-proline-based organocatalysis step is a complementary partner to the multienzyme steps to further functionalize heptanal to the corresponding α-hydrazino aldehyde. The "three-stage" streamlined design exerts much control over the chemical conversion, which renders the collective system a versatile and adaptable model for a broader substrate scope and more complex C-H functionalization.

Abstract
In this work, the enzyme aldehyde reductase, also known as aldose reductase, was synthesized and cloned from a human gene. Spectrophotometric measurements show that in presence of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate cofactor (NADPH), the aldehyde reductase catalyzed the reduction of glucose to sorbitol. Electrochemical measurements performed on an electrodeposited poly(methylene green)-modified gold electrode showed that in the presence of the enzyme aldehyde reductase, the electrocatalytic oxidation current of NADPH decreased drastically after the addition of glucose. These results demonstrate that aldehyde reductase is an enzyme that allows the construction of an efficient electrochemical glucose biosensor based on glucose reduction.

Abstract
Solid-phase humic acid (HAsolid) plays a critical role in global carbon cycle and redox biogeochemistry of topsoil, because of its unique physicochemical properties, including electrochemical property. In this study, topsoil HAsolid along a typical forest-river-paddy landscape section in eastern China was investigated in the aspects of electrochemical property, chemical structure and nanomechanics, and their relationship. Nano-size HAsolid particles were extracted from topsoil of paddy soil (PS-HAsolid), forest soil (FS-HAsolid) and riverside sediment (RS-HAsolid). Results showed that all the HAsolid were conductive and played an important role in conductivity of topsoil suspension. HAsolid contained both reversible and irreversible redox peaks, with redox activity of PS-HAsolid > RS-HAsolid > FS-HAsolid. Owing to limited humification, electron exchange capacity (EEC) values of topsoil HAsolid suspensions were modest (3.18-4.45 μmol e-g-1 HAsolid). Compared with RS-HAsolid and FS-HAsolid, PS-HAsolid showed higher aromaticity and higher degree of humification with simple and even nanomechanical property. Long-term cultivation (human activities) as well as high content of polyvalent metals in paddy soil were supposed to facilitate formation of aromatic carbon and improve humification of HAsolid. The results suggested that aromatic carbon and high humification degree of PS-HAsolid contributed to simple and even nanomechanics, which further optimized its electrochemical property. This study not only provides novel insight into the mechanism of HAsolid mediating electron transfer, but also inspires ideas for soil and environmental management with different purposes based on regulation of HAsolid.

Abstract
Highly π-conjugated (hetero)cyclic molecules having delocalized orbitals and tunable charge mobilities are attractive redox relays for mediated bioelectrocatalysis in manifold applications. As rigid molecules, their dynamics within the soft but confined intraprotein space becomes the crucial determinant of the enzyme-mediator electron-tunneling efficiency. However, it is rarely investigated in designing the mediated interface with a particular biocatalyst (e.g., oxidoreductase), which remains an empirical but try-and-error process. Herein, we present the computer-aided exploration of interactions between a flavin-containing reductive synthase and structurally diverse π-extended (hetero)cyclic mediators to realize reversed bioelectrocatalytic oxidation at low overpotentials. Compared to ring-fused systems with unbroken molecular planarity, heteroatom-bridged cyclic, and rotatable conjugated structures (e.g., indophenols) can experience unusually large dynamic torsion under biased forces of hydrogen bonding with enzyme residues. This behavior led to fast intraprotein reorientation (<50 ps) that shortened the electron-tunneling distance from 12 to 9 Å. Meanwhile, the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital level upon molecular torsion was decreased by 0.5 eV to further promote electron abstraction from the reduced flavin cofactor. An efficient distant electron tunneling also obviated mediator transport through the substrate channel, thus avoiding competitive inhibition on enzyme kinetics to broaden the operating concentration range. The resulting bioelectrocatalytic interface enables low-potential biosensing of glutamate with improved selectivity. Our finding provides new structural insights into constructing efficient long-range heterogeneous charge transport with biomacromolecular catalysts.

Abstract
The field of electrochemical biosensors has been dominated by amperometric and voltammetric sensors; however, these are limited greatly in their signal dependence on electrode size. Open circuit potentiometric sensors are emerging as an alternative due to their signal insensitivity to electrode size. Here, we present a second-generation biosensor that uses a modified chitosan hydrogel to entrap a dehydrogenase or other oxidoreductase enzyme of interest. The chitosan is modified with a desired electron mediator such that in the presence of the analyte, the enzyme will oxidize or reduce the mediator, thus altering the measured interfacial potential. Using the above design, we demonstrate a swift screening method for appropriate enzyme-mediator pairs based on open circuit potentiometry, as well as the efficacy of the biosensor design using two dehydrogenase enzymes (FADGDH and ADH) and peroxidase. Using 1,2-naphthoquinone as the mediator for FADGDH, dynamic ranges from 0.1 to 50 mM glucose are achieved. We additionally demonstrate the ease of fabrication and modification, a lifetime of ≥28 days, insensitivity to interferents, miniaturization to the microscale, and sensor efficacy in the presence of the enzyme's natural cofactor. These results forge a foundation for the generalized use of potentiometric biosensors for a wide variety of analytes within biologically-relevant systems where oxygen can be an interferent.

Abstract
The commonly required properties of diffusive electron mediators for point-of-care testing are rapid dissolubility, high stability, and moderate formal potential in aqueous solutions. Inspired by nature, various quinone-containing electron mediators have been developed; however, satisfying all these requirements remains a challenge. Herein, a strategic design toward quinones incorporating sulfonated thioether and nitrogen-containing heteroarene moieties as solubilizing, stabilizing, and formal potential-modulating groups is reported. A systematic investigation reveals that di(thioether sulfonate)-substituted quinoline-1,4-dione (QLS) and quinoxaline-1,4-dione (QXS) display water solubilities of ≈1 m and are rapidly dissoluble. By finely balancing the electron-donating effect of the thioethers and the electron-withdrawing effect of the nitrogen atom, formal potentials suitable for electrochemical biosensors are achieved with QLS and QXS (-0.15 and -0.09 V vs Ag/AgCl, respectively, at pH 7.4). QLS is stable for >1 d in PBS (pH 7.4) and for 1 h in tris buffer (pH 9.0), which is sufficient for point-of-care testing. Furthermore, QLS, with its high electron mediation ability, is successfully used in biosensors for sensitive detection of glucose and parathyroid hormone, demonstrating detection limits of ≈0.3 × 10-3 m and ≈2 pg mL-1 , respectively. This strategy produces organic electron mediators exhibiting rapid dissolution and high stability, and will find broad application beyond quinone-based biosensors.

Abstract
Microbial bioelectronics require interfacing microorganisms with electrodes. The resulting abiotic/biotic platforms provide the basis of a range of technologies, including energy conversion and diagnostic assays. Organic semiconductors (OSCs) provide a unique strategy to modulate the interfaces between microbial systems and external electrodes, thereby improving the performance of these incipient technologies. In this review, we explore recent progress in the field on how OSCs, and related materials capable of charge transport, are being used within the context of microbial systems, and more specifically bacteria. We begin by examining the electrochemical communication modes in bacteria and the biological basis for charge transport. Different types of synthetic organic materials that have been designed and synthesized for interfacing and interrogating bacteria are discussed next, followed by the most commonly used characterization techniques for evaluating transport in microbial, synthetic, and hybrid systems. A range of applications is subsequently examined, including biological sensors and energy conversion systems. The review concludes by summarizing what has been accomplished so far and suggests future design approaches for OSC bioelectronics materials and technologies that hybridize characteristic properties of microbial and OSC systems.

Abstract
In situ continuous glucose monitoring under physiological culture conditions is imperative in understanding the dynamics of cell and tissue behaviors and their physiological responses since glucose plays an important role in principal source of biological energy. We therefore examined physiologically relevant dynamic changes in glucose levels based on glucose metabolism and production during aerobic culture (10% O2) of rat primary hepatocytes stimulated with insulin or glucagon on a highly O2 permeable plate, which can maintain the oxygen concentration close to the periportal zone of the liver. As glucose monitoring devices, we used oxygen-independent glucose dehydrogenase-modified single-walled carbon nanotube electrodes placed close to the surface of the hepatocytes. The current response of glucose oxidation slightly decreased after the addition of insulin in the presence of glucose due to the acceleration of glucose uptake by the hepatocytes, whereas that significantly increased after the addition of glucagon and fructose even in the absence of glucose due to the conversion of fructose to glucose based on gluconeogenesis. These phenomena might be consistent relatively with the physiological behaviors of hepatocytes in the periportal region. The present monitoring system would be useful for the studies of glucose homeostasis and diabetes in vitro.

Abstract
Flavin-dependent glucose dehydrogenases (FAD-GDH) are oxygen-independent enzymes with high potential to be used as biocatalysts in glucose biosensing applications. Here, we present the construction of an amperometric biosensor and a biofuel cell device, which are based on a thermophilic variant of the enzyme originated from Talaromyces emersonii. The enzyme overexpression in Escherichia coli and its isolation and performance in terms of maximal bioelectrocatalytic currents were evaluated. We examined the biosensor's bioelectrocatalytic activity in 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol-, thionine-, and dichloro-naphthoquinone-mediated electron transfer configurations or in a direct electron transfer one. We showed a negligible interference effect and good stability for at least 20 h for the dichloro-naphthoquinone configuration. The constructed biosensor was also tested in interstitial fluid-like solutions to show high bioelectrocatalytic current responses. The bioanode was coupled with a bilirubin oxidase-based biocathode to generate 270 μW/cm2 in a biofuel cell device.

Abstract
Photobioelectrocatalysis (PBEC) adopts the sophistication and sustainability of photosynthetic units to convert solar energy into electrical energy. However, the electrically insulating outer membranes of photosynthetic units hinder efficient extracellular electron transfer from photosynthetic redox centers to an electrode in photobioelectrocatalytic systems. Among the artificial redox-mediating approaches used to enhance electrochemical communication at this biohybrid interface, conducting redox polymers (CRPs) are characterized by high intrinsic electric conductivities for efficient charge transfer. A majority of these CRPs constitute peripheral redox pendants attached to a conducting backbone by a linker. The consequently branched CRPs necessitate maintaining synergistic interactions between the pendant, linker, and backbone for optimal mediator performance. Herein, an unbranched, metal-free CRP, polydihydroxy aniline (PDHA), which has its redox moiety embedded in the polymer mainchain, is used as an exogenous redox mediator and an immobilization matrix at the biohybrid interface. As a proof of concept, the relatively complex membrane system of spinach chloroplasts is used as the photobioelectrocatalyst of choice. A "mixed" deposition of chloroplasts and PDHA generated a 2.4-fold photocurrent density increment. An alternative "layered" PDHA-chloroplast deposition, which was used to control panchromatic light absorbance by the intensely colored PDHA competing with the photoactivity of chloroplasts, generated a 4.2-fold photocurrent density increment. The highest photocurrent density recorded with intact chloroplasts was achieved by the "layered" deposition when used in conjunction with the diffusible redox mediator 2,6-dichlorobenzoquinone (-48 ± 3 μA cm-2). Our study effectively expands the scope of germane CRPs in PBEC, emphasizing the significance of the rational selection of CRPs for electrically insulating photobioelectrocatalysts and of the holistic modulation of the CRP-mediated biohybrids for optimal performance.

Abstract
This work demonstrates the application of magnetic carbon-encapsulated iron nanoparticles (CEINs) for the construction of bioelectrodes in a biobattery and a biofuel cell. It has been shown that carbon-encapsulated iron nanoparticles are a suitable material for the immobilization of laccase (Lc) and 1,4-naphthoquinone (NQ) and fructose dehydrogenase (FDH). The system is stable; no leaching of the enzyme and mediator from the surface of the modified electrode was observed. The onset of the catalytic reduction of oxygen to water was at 0.55 V, and catalytic fructose oxidation started at −0.15 V. A biobattery was developed in which a zinc plate served as the anode, and the cathode was a glassy carbon electrode modified with carbon-encapsulated iron nanoparticles, laccase in the Nafion (Nf) layer. The maximum power of the cell was ca. 7 mW/cm2 at 0.71 V and under external resistance of 1 kΩ. The open-circuit voltage (OCV) for this system was 1.51 V. In the biofuel cell, magnetic nanoparticles were used both on the bioanode and biocathode to immobilize the enzymes. The glassy carbon bioanode was coated with carbon-encapsulated iron nanoparticles, 1,4-naphthoquinone, fructose dehydrogenase, and Nafion. The cathode was modified with carbon-encapsulated magnetic nanoparticles and laccase in the Nafion layer. The biofuel cell parameters were as follows: maximum power of 78 µW/cm2 at the voltage of 0.33 V and under 20 kΩ resistance, and the open-circuit voltage was 0.49 V. These enzymes worked effectively in the biofuel cell, and laccase also effectively worked in the biobattery.

Abstract
A large number of reaction systems are composed of hydrophobic interfaces and microorganisms in natural environment. However, it is not clear how microorganisms adjust their breathing patterns and respond to hydrophobic interfaces. Here, Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 was used to reduce ferrihydrite of a hydrophobic surface. Through Fe(II) kinetic analysis, it was found that the reduction rate of hydrophobic ferrihydrite was 1.8 times that of hydrophilic one. The hydrophobic surface of the mineral hinders the way the electroactive microorganism uses the water-soluble electron mediator riboflavin for indirect electron transfer and promotes MR-1 to produce more liposoluble quinones. Ubiquinone can mediate electron transfer at the hydrophobic interface. Ubiquinone-30 (UQ-6) increases the reduction rate of hydrophobic ferrihydrite from 38.5 ± 4.4 to 52.2 ± 0.8 μM·h−1. Based on the above experimental results, we propose that liposoluble electron mediator ubiquinone can act on the extracellular hydrophobic surface, proving that the metabolism of hydrophobic minerals is related to endogenous liposoluble quinones. Hydrophobic modification of minerals encourages electroactive microorganisms to adopt differentiated respiratory pathways. This finding helps in understanding the electron transfer behavior of the microbes at the hydrophobic interface and provides new ideas for the study of hydrophobic reactions that may occur in systems, such as soil and sediment. Extracellular electron transfer can be regulated by wettability of mineral surface Hydrophobic surface hinders the transport of water-soluble mediator riboflavin Ubiquinone can mediate extracellular electron transfer at the hydrophobic interface

Abstract
Glucose level measurement is essential for the point-of-care diagnosis, primarily for persons with diabetes. A disposable electrochemical glucose sensor is constructed using flavin adenine dinucleotide-dependent glucose dehydrogenase (FAD-GDH) and redox mediator for electron transfer from the enzyme to the electrode surface. Ideally, a suitable mediator should have high water solubility, high kinetic constant, high stability, and redox potential between -0.2 and 0.1 V vs. Ag|AgCl|sat. KCl. We designed and synthesized two new quinone-based water-soluble mediators: quinoline-5,8-dione (QD) and isoquinoline-5,8-dione (IQD). The formal potentials for both QD and IQD at pH 7.0 were -0.07 V vs. Ag|AgCl|sat. KCl. The logarithms of the electron exchange rate constants (k2/(M-1 s-1)) between QD/IQD and FAD-GDH were 7.7 ± 0.1 and 7.4 ± 0.1 for QD and IQD, respectively, which are the highest value among the water-soluble mediators for FAD-GDH reported to date. Disposable amperometric glucose sensors were fabricated by dropping FAD-GDH and QD or IQD onto a test strip. The sensor achieved a linear response up to glucose concentrations of 55.5 mM. The linear response was obtained even when the mediator loading was low (0.5 nmol/strip); loading was only 0.2 mol% of glucose. The results proved that the response current was primarily controlled by glucose diffusion. In addition, the sensor using QD exhibited high stability over 3 months at room temperature.

Abstract
The adoption of new measures that preserve our environment, on which our survival depends, is a necessity. Electro-organic processes are sustainable per se, by producing the activation of a substrate by electron transfer at normal pressure and room temperature. In the recent years, a highly crescent number of works on organic electrosynthesis are available. Novel strategies at the electrode are being developed enabling the construction of a great variety of complex organic molecules. However, the possibility of being scaled-up is mandatory in terms of sustainability. Thus, some electrochemical methodologies have demonstrated to report the best results in reducing pollution and saving energy. In this personal account, these methods have been compiled, being organized as follows: • Direct discharge electrosynthesis • Paired electrochemical reactions. and • Organic transformations utilizing electrocatalysis (in absence of heavy metals). Selected protocols are herein presented and discussed with representative recent examples. Final perspectives and reflections are also considered.

Abstract
Enzyme cascades are plentiful in nature, but they also have potential in artificial applications due to the possibility of using the target substrate in biofuel cells, electrosynthesis, and biosensors. Cascade reactions from enzymes or hybrid bioorganic catalyst systems exhibit extended substrate range, reaction depth, and increased overall performance. This review addresses the strategies of cascade biocatalysis and bioelectrocatalysis for ( a) CO2 fixation, ( b) high value-added product formation, ( c) sustainable energy sources via deep oxidation, and ( d) cascaded electrochemical enzymatic biosensors. These recent updates in the field provide fundamental concepts, designs of artificial electrocatalytic oxidation-reduction pathways (using a flexible setup involving organic catalysts and engineered enzymes), and advances in hybrid cascaded sensors for sensitive analyte detection.

Abstract
Over the past two decades, the designs of redox polymers have become critical to the field of mediated bioelectrocatalysis and are used in commercial glucose biosensors, as well as other bioelectrochemical applications (e.g., energy harvesting). These polymers are specifically used to immobilize redox mediators on electrode surfaces, allowing for self-exchange-based conduction of electrons from enzymes far from the electrode to the electrode surface. However, the synthesis of redox polymers is challenging and results in large batch-to-batch variability. Herein, we report a rapid entrapment of mediators for NAD+-dependent bioelectrocatalysis within reverse ionically condensed polyelectrolytes. A high ionic strength aqueous solution of oppositely charged polyelectrolytes, composed of cationic polyguanidinium (PG) chloride and anionic sodium hexametaphosphate (P6), undergoes phase inversion into a solid microporous polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) when introduced into a low ionic strength aqueous solution. The ionic strength-triggered phase inversion of PGP6 solutions was investigated as a means to entrap mediators on the surface of electrodes for mediated bioelectrocatalysis. Compared to the traditional cross-linked immobilizations using redox polymers, this phase inversion takes place within seconds and requires up to 60 min for complete stabilization. In this work, redox mediator phenazine ethosulfate (PES) was entrapped within PGP6 on electrode surfaces for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent bioelectrocatalysis. In the bulk solution, NAD+-dependent dehydrogenase enzymes catalyze the oxidation of the substrate while reducing NAD to reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH). The resulting NADH is reoxidized to NAD+ by the entrapped PES that gets reduced on the electrode, completing the NAD+-regeneration-based bioelectrocatalysis. To show the use of these new materials in an application, biofuel cells were evaluated using four different anodic enzyme systems (alcohol dehydrogenase, lactate hydrogenase, glycerol dehydrogenase, and glucose dehydrogenase).

Abstract
We report on a photobioelectrochemical fuel cell consisting of a glucose‐oxidase‐modified BiFeO3 photobiocathode and a quantum‐dot‐sensitized inverse opal TiO2 photobioanode linked to FAD glucose dehydrogenase via a redox polymer. Both photobioelectrodes are driven by enzymatic glucose conversion. Whereas the photobioanode can collect electrons from sugar oxidation at rather low potential, the photobiocathode shows reduction currents at rather high potential. The electrodes can be arranged in a sandwich‐like manner due to the semi‐transparent nature of BiFeO3, which also guarantees a simultaneous excitation of the photobioanode when illuminated via the cathode side. This tandem cell can generate electricity under illumination and in the presence of glucose and provides an exceptionally high OCV of about 1 V. The developed semi‐artificial system has significant implications for the integration of biocatalysts in photoactive entities for bioenergetic purposes, and it opens up a new path toward generation of electricity from sunlight and (bio)fuels.

Abstract
Photobioelectrocatalysis has recently attracted particular research interest owing to the possibility to achieve sunlight-driven biosynthesis, biosensing, power generation, and other niche applications. However, physiological incompatibilities between biohybrid components lead to poor electrical contact at the biotic-biotic and biotic-abiotic interfaces. Establishing an electrochemical communication between these different interfaces, particularly the biocatalyst-electrode interface, is critical for the performance of the photobioelectrocatalytic system. While different artificial redox mediating approaches spanning across interdisciplinary research fields have been developed in order to electrically wire biohybrid components during bioelectrocatalysis, a systematic understanding on physicochemical modulation of artificial redox mediators is further required. Herein, we review and discuss the use of diffusible redox mediators and redox polymer-based approaches in artificial redox-mediating systems, with a focus on photobioelectrocatalysis. The future possibilities of artificial redox mediator system designs are also discussed within the purview of present needs and existing research breadth.

Rational design of electroactive redox enzyme nanocapsules for high-performance biosensors and enzymatic biofuel cell. Biosens Bioelectron 2020; 174:112805.

Abstract
The potential application of biodevices based on enzymatic bioelectrocatalysis are limited by poor stability and electrochemical performance. To solve the limitation, modifying enzyme with functional polymer to tailor enzyme function is highly desirable. Herein, glucose oxidase (GOx) was chosen as a model enzyme, and according to the chemical structure of GOx cofactor (flavin adenine dinucleotide, FAD), we customize a biomimetic cofactor containing vinyl group (SFAD) for GOx, and prepared an GOx nanocapsule via in-situ polymerization. The characterization of particle size distribution, TEM, fluorescence and electrochemical performance indicated the successful formation of electroactive GOx nanocapsule with SFAD-containing polymeric network (n (GOx-SFAD-PAM)). The network can act as an electronic "highway" to link the active site with electrode, with capability to accelerate electron transfer as well as enhanced GOx stability. Further investigation of bioelectrocatalysis shows that n (GOx-SFAD-PAM)-based biosensor has low detection potential (-0.4 vs. Ag/AgCl), high sensitivity (64.97 μAmM-1cm-2), good anti-interference performance, quick response (3⁓5s) and excellent stability, and that n (GOx-SFAD-PAM)-based enzymatic biofuel cell (EBFC) has the high maximum power density (1011.21 μWcm-2), which is a 385-fold increase over that of native GOx-based EBFC (2.62 μWcm-2). This study suggests that novel enzyme nanocapsule with electroactive polymeric shell might provide a prospective solution for the performance improvement of enzymatic bioelectrocatalysis-based biodevices.

Abstract
Biocatalysts provide a number of advantages such as high selectivity, the ability to operate under mild reaction conditions and availability from renewable resources that are of interest in the development of bioreactors for applications in the pharmaceutical and other sectors. The use of oxidoreductases in biocatalytic reactors is primarily focused on the use of NAD(P)-dependent enzymes, with the recycling of the cofactor occurring via an additional enzymatic system. The use of electrochemically based systems has been limited. This review focuses on the development of electrochemically based biocatalytic reactors. The mechanisms of mediated and direct electron transfer together with methods of immobilising enzymes are briefly reviewed. The use of electrochemically based batch and flow reactors is reviewed in detail with a focus on recent developments in the use of high surface area electrodes, enzyme engineering and enzyme cascades. A future perspective on electrochemically based bioreactors is presented.

Abstract
There is a growing interest in using ammonia as a liquid carrier of hydrogen for energy applications. Currently, ammonia is produced industrially by the Haber-Bosch process, which requires high temperature and high pressure. In contrast, bacteria have naturally evolved an enzyme known as nitrogenase, that is capable of producing ammonia and hydrogen at ambient temperature and pressure. Therefore, nitrogenases are attractive as a potentially more efficient means to produce ammonia via harnessing the unique properties of this enzyme. In recent years, exciting progress has been made in bioelectrocatalysis using nitrogenases to produce ammonia. Here, the prospects for developing biological ammonia production are outlined, key advances in bioelectrocatalysis by nitrogenases are highlighted, and possible solutions to the obstacles faced in realising this goal are discussed.

Abstract
Herein, we report a membraneless glucose and air photoelectrochemical biofuel cell (PBFC) with a visible light assisted photobioanode. Flavin adenine dinucleotide dependent glucose dehydrogenase (FADGDH) was immobilized on the combined photobioanode for the visible light assisted glucose oxidation (GCE|MWCNT|g-C3N4|Ru-complex|FADGDH) with a quinone mediated electron transfer. Bilirubine oxidase (BOx) immobilized on MWCNT coated GCE (GCE|BOx) was used as the cathode with direct electron transfer (DET). An improvement of biocatalytic oxidation current was observed by 6.2% due in part to the light-driven electron-transfer. The large oxidation currents are probably owing to the good contacting of the immobilized enzymes with the electrode material and the utilization of light assisted process. Under the visible light, the photobioanode shows an anodic photocurrent of 1.95 μA cm2 at attractively low potentials viz. -0.4 vs Ag/AgCl. The lower-lying conduction band of g-C3N4 as compared to Ru-complexes decreases the rate of hole and electron recombination and enhances the charge transportation. The bioanode shows maximum current density for glucose oxidation up to 6.78 μA cm-2 at 0.2 V vs Ag/AgCl at pH:7. The performance of three promising Ru-complexes differing in chemical and redox properties were compared as electron mediators for FADGDH. Upon illumination, the PBFC delivered a maximum power density of 28.5 ± 0.10 μW cm-2 at a cell voltage of +0.4 V with an open circuit voltage of 0.64 V.
