Direct electron transfer between heme-containing enzymes and electrodes as basis for third generation biosensors

Direct electron transfer (DET) between redox enzymes and electrodes found the basis for third generation biosensors. Recent investigations in the authors' laboratories on the bioelectrochemistry of heme-containing proteins and enzymes, primarily peroxidases, but also cellobiose dehydrogenase, will be reviewed.
