ABSTRACT
As shown in Chapter 4, DNA shows relatively high ionic conductivity
under humidified conditions, which originates from the formation of
water bridges between DNA and water molecules. This means DNA
has the potential to be used as sensors and batteries, applying ion or
proton conduction. Especially, we can fabricate biofuel cells based
on the DNA electrolyte (DNA fuel cell) with proton conductivity.
In this section, we show the characteristics of fuel cells with DNA
films.
