Flexible Electroactive Nanomaterials Biotemplated with Versatile M13 Phage Platforms

Abstract

Producing electrodes for methanol oxidation using M13 phage as a new support are designed. This electrode shows electroactivity because the M13 phage can direct the size of the metal nanoparticles (NPs) allowing it a good dispersion, building a 3D network. This nanoarchitecture reduces poisoning on the surface of the NPs keeping the electroactivity
