Density Functional Theory-Based Predictions and Experimental Evaluations of Ferrocene Derivatives Considered as Mediator for Anodic Catalysts of Glucose and Oxygen Enzymatic Biofuel Cells

<div>CV curves of CNT/Fc derivatives/GOx measured under eight different electrolytes ((a) Fc(NH2), (b) Fc2·(CH3), (c) Fc(CH2OH), (d) Fc, (e) Fc(CHCH2), (f) Fc(COOH), (g) Fc(COCH3), and (h) Fc(CHO)), without the provision of glucose (dash gray line), and with the injection of 100 mM glucose solution (solid black line). For the tests, 0.01 M PBS (pH 7.4) was used as electrolyte, and the potential scan rate was 20 mV/s in the N2 state. (i) A correlation of ERedox and EOnset for GOR of the Fc derivatives.</div>
