Abstract

In this Account, we detail recent progress in wearable bioelectronic devices and discuss the future challenges and prospects of on-body noninvasive bioelectronic systems. Bioelectronics is a fast-growing interdisciplinary research field that involves interfacing biomaterials with electronics, covering an array of biodevices, encompassing biofuel cells, biosensors, ingestibles, and implantables. In particular, enzyme-based bioelectronics, built on diverse biocatalytic reactions, offers distinct advantages and represents a centerpiece of wearable biodevices. Such wearable bioelectronic devices predominately rely on oxidoreductase enzymes and have already demonstrated considerable promise for on-body applications ranging from highly selective noninvasive biomarker monitoring to epidermal energy harvesting. These systems can thus greatly increase the analytical capability of wearable devices from the ubiquitous monitoring of mobility and vital signs, toward the noninvasive analysis of important chemical biomarkers. Wearable enzyme electrodes offer exciting opportunities to a variety of areas, spanning from healthcare, sport, to the environment or defense. These include real-time noninvasive detection of biomarkers in biofluids (such as sweat, saliva, interstitial fluid and tears), and the monitoring of environmental pollutants and security threats in the immediate surrounding of the wearer. Furthermore, the interface of enzymes with conducting flexible electrode materials can be exploited for developing biofuel cells, which rely on the bioelectrocatalytic oxidation of biological fuels, such as lactate or glucose, for energy harvesting applications. Crucial for such successful application of enzymatic bioelectronics is deep knowledge of enzyme electron-transfer kinetics, enzyme stability, and enzyme immobilization strategies. Such understanding is critical for establishing efficient electrical contacting between the redox enzymes and the conducting electrode supports, which is of fundamental interest for the development of robust and efficient bioelectronic platforms. Furthermore, stretchable and flexible bioelectronic platforms, with mechanical properties similar to those of biological tissues, are essential for handling the rigors of on-body operation. As such, special attention must be given to changes in the behavior of enzymes due to the uncontrolled conditions of on-body operation (including diverse outdoor activities and different biofluids), for maintaining the attractive performance that these bioelectronics devices display in controlled laboratory settings. Therefore, a focus of this Account is on interfacing biocatalytic layers onto wearable electronic devices for creating efficient and stable on-body electrochemical biosensors and biofuel cells. With proper attention to key challenges and by leveraging the advantages of biocatalysis, electrochemistry, and flexible electronics, wearable bioelectronic devices could have a tremendous impact on diverse biomedical, fitness, and defense fields.

摘要

在本综述中,我们详细介绍了可穿戴生物电子设备的最新进展,并讨论了体上无创生物电子系统的未来挑战和前景。生物电子学是一个快速发展的跨学科研究领域,涉及生物材料与电子学的接口,涵盖了一系列生物设备,包括生物燃料电池、生物传感器、可摄入物和可植入物。特别是,基于各种生物催化反应的基于酶的生物电子学具有独特的优势,是可穿戴生物设备的核心。这种可穿戴生物电子设备主要依赖于氧化还原酶,并且已经在从高度选择性的无创生物标志物监测到表皮能量收集的体上应用中显示出了巨大的潜力。这些系统可以极大地提高可穿戴设备的分析能力,从无处不在的移动性和生命体征监测,到无创分析重要的化学生物标志物。可穿戴酶电极为许多领域提供了令人兴奋的机会,涵盖了从医疗保健、运动到环境或国防。这些包括实时无创检测生物流体中的生物标志物(如汗液、唾液、间质液和眼泪),以及监测佩戴者周围环境中的污染物和安全威胁。此外,酶与导电柔性电极材料的接口可用于开发生物燃料电池,该电池依赖于生物燃料(如乳酸盐或葡萄糖)的生物电催化氧化来进行能量收集应用。对于酶生物电子学的这种成功应用,关键是要深入了解酶的电子转移动力学、酶的稳定性和酶固定化策略。这种理解对于建立氧化还原酶与导电电极衬底之间有效的电接触至关重要,这对于开发稳健高效的生物电子平台具有根本意义。此外,具有与生物组织相似机械性能的可拉伸和柔性生物电子平台对于处理体上操作的苛刻条件至关重要。因此,必须特别注意由于体上操作的不受控制条件(包括各种户外活动和不同的生物流体)导致的酶行为变化,以维持这些生物电子设备在受控实验室环境中显示的有吸引力的性能。因此,本综述的重点是将生物催化层接口到可穿戴电子设备上,以创建高效稳定的体上电化学生物传感器和生物燃料电池。通过适当关注关键挑战并利用生物催化、电化学和柔性电子学的优势,可穿戴生物电子设备可能会对生物医学、健身和国防等各个领域产生巨大影响。
