Publisher page

Abstract

Electrochemical studies of redox active metalloproteins have become an increasingly fruitful area of study in recent years, particularly with the single-molecule resolution capability of electrochemical scanning tunnelling microscopy (EC-STM) which provides both imaging and current-voltage spectroscopy under bipotentiostatic control. In this review, some of the most exciting advances in recent years are outlined, and directions for future research are considered.
