Problems solved by technology

Although people generally use the direct electrochemical properties of laccase to construct oxygen reduction cathodes for enzyme-based biofuel cells, the current efficiency of the prepared oxygen reduction cathodes is low, which has become a "bottleneck" that limits the output power of biofuel cells. ", unable to meet the needs of the current development of biofuel cells

Embodiment 1

[0020] Embodiment 1, the purification of laccase

[0021] Dissolve 50mg of laccase (Trametes Versicolor E.C.1.10.3.2, 23.76U / mg) in 500μL of 0.1M phosphate buffer solution (pH 6.0) and transfer to a dialysis bag, and soak the dialysis bag in fresh 0.1M phosphate buffer solution (pH6.0) for 4 hours with stirring and dialysis, then moved to another fresh 0.1M phosphate buffer solution (pH6.0) and stirred for 4 hours, and thus cycled for 1-2 days. Then add ammonium sulfate to the solution in the bag until it is saturated, and a precipitate is precipitated, and then the suspension is centrifuged at 5000 rpm for 10 minutes; the resulting precipitate is dissolved in about 500 μL of 0.1M phosphate buffer solution (pH6.0) , then saturated with ammonium sulfate, and precipitates were separated out again; centrifuged again to obtain precipitates, and the resulting precipitates were dissolved in 300 μL of 0.1M phosphate buffer solution (pH6.0) and put into dialysis tubes, and concentrate...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a high-efficiency enzyme-type biofuel cell cathode and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Enzyme biofuel cell is a new type of energy technology that uses enzymes as catalysts to convert the chemical energy of biological substances (such as glucose and oxygen) into electrical energy. pacemaker power supply, etc.) has a very wide range of application prospects (Yan et al., Carbon-Nanotube-Based Glucose / O 2 Biofuel Cells. Adv. Mater. 2006, 18, 2639-2643; Gao et al., An enzymatic glucose / O 2 biofuel cell: Preparation, characterization and performance in serum, Electrochem. Commun. 2007, 9, 989-996). Due to the use of enzymes as bioelectrochemical catalysts, the electrochemical properties of enzymes play a key role in the performance of enzyme-based biofuel cells. For example, when using electron mediator (Fei et al., A Biopolymer Composite that Catalyzes the Reduction of Oxygen to Water. Chem. Mater., 2...
