BIOCOMPATIBLE ELECTROCHEMICAL SUPERCAPACITOR

摘要

A supercapacitor to be submerged in a medium containing a biological material and an oxidant, wherein the anode comprises a first enzyme that can catalyse the oxidation of the biological material and the cathode comprises a second enzyme that can catalyse the reduction of the oxidant, and wherein each of the anode and cathode electrodes consists of a solid agglomerate of a conductive material mixed with the first or the second enzyme, said agglomerate having a specific surface that is larger than or equal to 20 m2/g and an average pore size varying between 0.7 nm and 10 pm.
