(BODs) [EC 1.3.3.5 - bilirubin: oxygen oxido-reductase] are enzymes that belong to the multicopper oxidase family and can oxidize bilirubin, diphenols, and aryl amines and reduce the oxygen by direct four-electron transfer from the electrode with almost no electrochemical overpotential. Therefore, BOD is a promising bioelectrocatalyst for (self-powered) biosensors and/or enzymatic fuel cells. The advantages of electrochemically active BOD enzymes include selective biosensing, biocatalysis for efficient energy conversion, and electrosynthesis. Owing to the rise in publications and patents, as well as the expanding interest in BODs for a range of physiological conditions, this Review analyzes scientific literature reports on BOD enzymes and current hypotheses on their bioelectrocatalysis. This Review evaluates the specific research outcomes of the BOD in enzyme (protein) engineering, immobilization strategies, and challenges along with their bioelectrochemical properties, limitations, and applications in the fields of (i) biosensors, (ii) self-powered biosensors, and (iii) biofuel cells for powering bioelectronics.

New types of metal-organic framework (MOF) materials have great potential in solving the current global dilemma on energy, environment, and medical care. Herein, based on two kinds of biomolecule-MOFs (Bio-MOFs) with favorable biocompatibility and degradation-reconstruction characteristics, we have established a self-powered muti-functional device to achieve an efficient and broad-spectrum environmental energy collection and biomedical applications. Combining Zn(II) and carnosine-based Zn-Car_MOF possessing a high piezoelectric response (d = 11.

Sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) are recognized as significant contributors to microbiologically induced corrosion (MIC). Developing effective, economical, sensitive, and specific detection methods for SRB is crucial for understanding microbial corrosion mechanisms and for early monitoring. In this study, a novel dual-mode DNA biosensor was developed, utilizing a nanozyme-based fuel cell to enable self-powered detection of the DsrA gene in SRB, while demonstrating excellent sensitivity, specificity, and reliability.

A self-powered dual-electrode aptasensor was developed for the detection of tumor marker carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). The composite BiVO/ZnInS, which is capable of forming a Z-scheme heterojunction, was chosen as the photoanode, and the AuNP/CuBiO complex was chosen as the photocathode in photoelectrochemical (PEC) detection. The experiments showed that the constructed self-powered dual-electrode system had a good photoelectric response to white light, and the photocurrent signal of the photocathode was significantly enhanced under the influence of the photoanode.
