Characterisation and cultivation
The advantages of an electrochemical measuring cell with separated compartments are that there is no mixing within the nascent products of electrolysis of the anode- and cathode compartment and the possibility to use different buffers in both compartments.
The characterization of different mediators was performed cell free in phosphate buffer.
During the measurements the electrode material could be varied and we tried out different settings for the creation of a cyclic voltamogramm. We investigated the influence of the scan rate, the potential range and thethe positioning of the electrodes. All measurements were performed with a Ag/AgCl reference electrode and without aeration.
