This paper systematically studies the influence of system parameters such as pH, electrode potential, and educt concentration on NADH regeneration and presents their mechanisms. The experimental results show that all three system parameters have significant effects on the reaction outcome.
Electrochemical NAD(+) reduction is a promising method to regenerate NADH for enzymatic reactions. Many different electrocatalysts have been tested in the search for high yields of the 1,4-isomer of NADH, the active NADH, but aside from electrode material, other system parameters such as pH, electrode potential and educt concentration also play a role in NADH regeneration. The effect of these last three parameters and the mechanisms behind their influence on NADH regeneration was systematically studied and presented in this paper. With percentages of active NADH ranging from 10 to 70% and faradaic efficiencies between 1 and 30%, it is clear that all three system parameters drastically affect the reaction outcome. As a proof of principle, the NAD+ reduction in the presence of pyruvate and lactate dehydrogenase was performed. It could be shown that the electrochemical NADH regeneration can also be done successfully in parallel to enzymatically usage of the regenerated cofactor.
