Abstract

Herein, photosystem II (PSII), extracted from spinach, is used for the first time as an efficient and green sensitizer for a photobioanode in a photoelectrochemical glucose biofuel cell (PBFC) setup. The concept is based on the formation of hemin-catalyzed luminol chemiluminescence (CL) after the enzymatic oxidation of glucose and the simultaneous production of hydrogen peroxide by glucose oxidase. The photosynthetic enzyme PSII, combined with an osmium polymer serving as mediator and photosensitizer, is immobilized and wired on microporous carbonaceous material (MC) for the chemiluminescence-induced oxidation of water to O2 at the photobioanode (GCE|MC|Os polymer|PSII). Also, bilirubin oxidase immobilized on multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) coated electrode (GCE|MWCNT|BOx) serves as a biocathode. The photoelectrochemical biofuel cell (PBFC) is applied to a biosensor model system to validate the appropriateness of such a bioanode operating in a self-powered mode. Os redox polymer attached to MCs provides abundant PSII immobilization and a reliable electron transfer pathway. The well-matching energy levels of photosensitive entities reduce recombination phenomena while MC enhances the charge collection. Substantial photocatalytic water oxidation was observed under CL due to the well-matched CL emission and PSII absorption. The electrode is rationally designed to gain the maximum luminol CL power for the photobioanode. The open circuit potential of PBFC linearly increased with the CL power intensity and, in turn, glucose concentrations in the range of 0-6 mmol L-1. The PBFC yielded an OCP of 0.531 V in 30 mmolL-1 glucose. The study may open a new horizon to the green and pioneering PEC biosensing realm.
