Minteer field of study focuses on the interface between biocatalysts and enzyme-based electrodes for biofuel cells and sensors.
[5] At Saint Louis University, Minteer worked on several inventions, including drug delivery systems, enzymes, and novel electrodes.
[7][8] In 2003 Minteer and her graduate student Nick Akers co-founded Akermin to commercialise their work on mitochondria-based biofuel cells.
In 2015 Minteer joined the Joint Center for Energy Storage Research to help take more rational design for redox flow batteries.
[17] Minteer worked with Brett Helm at University of California, Berkeley on electroanalytical tools to study oligomer electrolytes.
