ELECTROCHEMICAL METHOD FOR COFACTOR REGENERATION

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for regenerating a cofactor using an electrochemical method, an enzymatic method for oxidation-reduction using the same method, an enzymatic biosensor, and an enzymatic fuel cell. More particularly, the present invention is characterized in that a cofactor is oxidized or reduced as a result of direct transfer of electron to or from a metal oxide electrode, and an electron transferring mediator is not used. The method for cofactor regeneration of the present invention allows regenerated cofactors to be obtained simply at lower costs, and therefore, the present invention can be widely applied to various fields such as electrochemical bioreactors, as well as biosensors and biofuel cells.
