Abstract

This paper reports on an implantable glucose biofuel cell generating electric power from body fluids, such as blood. By the use of enzyme as an anodic catalyst and vitamin K₃ as a harmless electron-mediator, we can realize the power generation from biofluids. We assembled a microfluidic biofuel cell to evaluate cell performance and stability in biofluids.
