Marine aerobic biofilm as biocathode catalyst [PDF]

open access: yesBioelectrochemistry, 2010
Stainless steel electrodes were immersed in open seawater and polarized for some days at − 200 mV vs. Ag/AgCl. The current increase indicated the formation of biofilms that catalysed the electrochemical reduction of oxygen.

Current understanding of electroautotrophy and its relevance in astrobiology-related research. [PDF]

open access: yesmLife
Abstract Electroautotrophy—the use of extracellular electrons as the primary energy source for autotrophic metabolism—remains understudied compared to photoautotrophy and chemoautotrophy. Its occurrence in deep‐earth and deep‐sea environments suggests profound implications for astrobiology, yet electroautotrophic microorganisms remain poorly explored ...

Performance of a Trickling-Bed Biocathode Microbial Electrochemical System Treating Domestic Wastewater and Functional Microbial Community Characteristics

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Biocathode microbial electrochemical systems (MESs) that remove nitrogen compounds out of wastewater are of special interest for practice. High energy-input for aeration is one of the barriers that hinder their application on a wider scope.

Bilirubin oxidase oriented on novel type three-dimensional biocathodes with reduced graphene aggregation for biocathode

open access: yesBiosensors and Bioelectronics, 2020
Aggregation of reduced graphene oxide (RGO) due to π-π stacking is a recurrent problem in graphene-based electrochemistry, decreasing the effective working area and therefore the performance of the RGO electrodes. Dispersing RGO on three-dimensional (3D) carbon paper electrodes is one strategy towards overcoming this challenge, with partial relief ...
