Nanoporous gold (NPG) obtained via dealloying of Au alloys has potential applications in a range of fields, and in particular in bioelectrochemistry. NPG possesses a three dimensional bicontinuous network of interconnected pores with typical pore diameters of ca. 30-40 nm, features that are useful for the immobilisation of enzymes. This review describes the common routes of fabrication and characterization of NPG, the use of NPG as a support for oxidoreductases for applications in biosensors and biofuel cells together with recent progress in the use of NPG electrodes for applications in bioelectrochemistry.
