We demonstrate self-assembly, characterization and bioelectrocatalysis of redox-active cyclodextrin-coated nanoparticles. The nanoparticles with host-guest functionality are easy to assemble and permit entrapment of hydrophobic redox molecules in aqueous solution. Bispyrene-ABTS encapsulated nanoparticles were investigated electrochemically and spectroscopically. Their use as electron shuttles is demonstrated via an intraelectron transfer chain between neighboring redox units of clustered particles (D-h,D-DLs = 195 nm) and the mono and trinuclear Cu sites of bilirubin oxidases. Enhanced current densities for mediated O-2 reduction are observed with the redox nanoparticle system compared to equivalent bioelectrode cells with dissolved mediator. Improved catalytic stability over 2 days was also observed with the redox nanoparticles, highlighting a stabilizing effect of the polymeric architecture. Bioinspired nano particles as mediators for bioelectrocatalysis promises to be valuable for future biofuel cells and biosensors.
