Non-covalent double functionalization of carbon nanotubes with a NADH oxidation Ru(ii)-based molecular catalyst and a NAD-dependent glucose dehydrogenase†
Abstract
We report the double functionalization of multiwalled carbon nanotube electrodes by two functional pyrene molecules. In combination, an immobilized Ru(II)-based NADH oxidation catalyst and glucose dehydrogenase achieve highly efficient glucose oxidation with low overpotential of −0.10 V and high current densities of 6 mA cm−2.
