Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) were covalently modified with antracene and antraquinone and used for the construction of cathodes for biocatalytic reduction od dioxygen. The nanotubes with aromatic groups casted onto the electrode increased the working surface of the electrode and enabled efficient direct electron tarnsfer (DET) between the enzyme and the electrode. the aryl groups enter the hydrophobic pocket of the T1 center of laccase responsible for exchanging electrons with the substrate. Glassy carbon electrode covered with arylated SWCNT and coated with a layer of neutralized Nafion containing
