Polymer coating for improved redox-polymer-mediated enzyme electrodes: A mini-review

Redox polymers have been widely used to facilitate and stabilize bioelectrochemical communication between the active sites of enzymes and electrodes, enabling development of high-performance enzyme electrodes for sensing, provision of power, and in synthesis. This review offers a brief overview of recent efforts in the use of additional polymer layers on top of a redox polymer/enzyme layer, which can both improve the performance and expand the functionality of the resulting bioelectrodes.

Automated summary

Redox polymers are crucial for enhancing bioelectrochemical communication between enzymes and electrodes, and recent research has shown that adding additional polymer layers can improve the performance and functionality of bioelectrodes.
