Colloidal Nanoparticles as a Wireless Booster for Electroenzymatic Reactions

Nanoparticles in a wireless form are employed to overcome the extremely low efficiency of electroenzymatic synthesis reactions. The nanoparticle-mediated electrochemical regeneration of cofactor (NADH) is used in the enzymatic conversion of α-ketoglutarate to L-glutamate (see picture). The use of colloidal nanoparticles in electrolyte provides a new strategy for electroenzymatic catalysis. Detailed facts of importance to specialist readers are published as ”Supporting Information”.
