Electroactive Microbiomes: Electron Transfer Mechanisms and Environmental Biotechnology Applications

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 5, October 2026.
Electroactive microbiomes couple direct, mediated, conductive, and interspecies electron transfer with biofilm organisation to drive wastewater treatment, bioremediation, resource recovery, carbon conversion, and biosensing. Their performance depends on balancing electron transfer, mass transport, community structure, and electrode–biofilm interactions

Grape Pomace Extracts as Fermentation Medium for the Production of Potential Biopreservation Compounds

Foods, 2019
Microbial spoilage causes food losses in the food industry and as such, the use of synthetic chemical preservatives is still required. The current study proposes the use of agro-waste, i.e., grape pomace extracts (GPE), as production medium for ...

ω‐Hydroxyacid Dehydrogenases From Clostridium viride: Iron‐Containing Biocatalysts With Biotechnological Potential

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 16, 27 August 2026.
ω‐Hydroxy and ω‐oxo acids are precursors to lactones, polyesters, and nylon‐6, yet selective interconverting enzymes remain scarce. Clostridium viride supplies two iron alcohol dehydrogenases: Cvir‐Hbd2, restricted to C4, and the genomic singleton Cvir‐Hvd, spanning C5–C12 substrates.

Metabolic Flux and Growth Profiling of Megasphaera cerevisiae for Medium‐Chain Fatty Acid Synthesis

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 4, August 2026.
Characterising the metabolism of medium‐chain fatty acids in Megasphaera cerevisiae, based on genome‐scale metabolic modelling and integration with experimental data obtained from controlled bioreactor cultivations. The iterative approach aligns in silico predictions with empirical observations and a refined model was obtained.

Butanol as a major product during ethanol and acetate chain elongation

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Chain elongation is a relevant bioprocess in support of a circular economy as it can use a variety of organic feedstocks for production of valuable short and medium chain carboxylates, such as butyrate (C4), caproate (C6), and caprylate (C8).

Impact of conductive magnetite nanoparticles and anode polarization on glucose fermentation

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 1027-1034, May 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Electrically conductive materials and electrochemical stimulation strategies are increasingly explored to steer microbial fermentation towards desired metabolic outputs. These approaches also hold remarkable potential to couple wastewater treatment (WWT) to the production of value‐added compounds, in turn enhancing environmental ...
