Abstract

Processes in the glucose-Escherichia coli cells-mediator-electrode bioelectrochemical system were studied using the kinetic model of processes on microbial mediator anodes. The model was constructed using the Michaelis-Menten equation. It takes into account the constants of substrate and mediator distribution between the inner medium of the cell and the working solution. The kinetic analysis of processes in the system under study showed that when Escherichia coli bacterial cells are used as a catalyst, methylene blue is a more effective mediator of electron transfer than gallocyanine.
