Fundamentals of DET-Type Bioelectrocatalysis

This chapter starts by introducing the history of DET-type non-catalytic and bioelectrocatalytic reactions with much attention to the distinction between DET- and MET-type bioelectrocatalytic reactions. Theoretical features of DET-type bioelectrocatalysis are detailed with emphasis of orientation effect of redox enzymes and curvature effect of mesoporous electrodes. One of analytical methods for steady-state catalytic waves of DET-type bioelectrocatalysis is also introduced.
