title: [The use of bioelectrochemical systems in steroid biosynthesis].
abstract: The feasibility of electrosynthesis involving the use of biocatalysts has been demonstrated in a model reaction of hydrocortisone oxidation to prednisolone catalyzed by Arthrobacter globiformis cells. Electrochemical regeneration of phenazine methosulfate, an artificial electron acceptor, was performed, using electrodes made of different materials. Transformation products were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography.
