Abstract [eng] In this study, Spirulina platensis-based lysate was used as a biological redox mediator to design glucose oxidase (GOx) based biofuel cell bioanode. Chemically oxidized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNT) were deposited on carbon-electrode and were covered with eco-friendly algae cell-based lysate that facilitated the electron transfer and served as a biocompatible matrix for enzyme immobilization, which reduced the inactivation of GOx by CNT. The designed GC/PEI/CNT/S.p./GOx bioanode exhibited an open circuit potential (OCP) of-262 mV vs Ag/AgCl(3MKCl) in the presence of 12.5 mM of glucose. The maximum power output of the proposed bioanode was 21.8 times higher and reached 3.2 μW cm-2 at-51 mV vs Ag/AgCl(3MKCl) if the S. platensis cell lysate was used for bioanode design. The amperometric responses of GC/PEI/CNT/S.p./GOx bioelectrode towards the addition of glucose were linear at glucose concentrations ranging between 250 μM and 5 mM. These characteristics enable applying this bioanode as a part of biofuel cell and the electrode of an amperometric glucose biosensor, which response within 15 s, with a detection limit of 118 μM and a sensitivity of 15.09 μA mM-1 cm-2.
