Despite its acknowledged importance, the use of EIS coupled with distribution of relaxation times (DRT) analysis in EFCs research is limited. Our study addresses this gap by employing EIS and DRT analysis to investigate enzyme-based anodic processes, focusing on the bioelectrocatalytic oxidation of glucose catalyzed by glucose oxidase (GOx). Through careful variation of multiple parameters, it was possible to identify three distinct regions in the DRT plot. Each region has been subsequently associated with a key anodic process. The first region (R<sub>1</sub>) is associated with high-frequency phenomena occurring at the electrodes, primarily due to ionic conduction in the electrolyte. Intermediate-frequency processes are associated to charge transfer kinetics in region 2 (R<sub>2</sub>). Region 3 (R<sub>3</sub>) is linked to diffusion processes occurring at low frequencies.
