Real-Time Monitoring of Subsurface Microbial Metabolism with Graphite Electrodes
Monitoring in situ microbial activity in anaerobic submerged soils and aquatic sediments can be labor intensive and technically difficult, especially in dynamic environments in which a record of changes in microbial activity over time is desired ...

Microbes, cables, and an electrical touch [PDF]
In nature, highly efficient and diverse consortia of microbes cycle carbon and other elements while generating energy for growth. Driving these reactions are organisms with the ability to extract electrons from the chemical substrates and transfer them ...

e-Biologics: Fabrication of Sustainable Electronics with “Green” Biological Materials
The growing ubiquity of electronic devices is increasingly consuming substantial energy and rare resources for materials fabrication, as well as creating expansive volumes of toxic waste. This is not sustainable.

Comparative proteomics of a versatile, marine, iron‐oxidizing chemolithoautotroph
In this study, we identified proteins that were upregulated under iron‐oxidizing conditions. Notably, we highlight a periplasmic di‐heme cytochrome c that is associated with a putative redox complex spanning the inner membrane, periplasm, outer membrane, and extracellular space.

Kabelbakterienskelette als katalytisch aktive Elektroden
Biologische Kabel als Elektroden: Elektrisch leitfähige filamentöse Kabelbakterienskelette wurden als freistehende biologische Elektroden verwendet und zeigen eine katalytische Selektivität für Sauerstoff. Die Skelette wandeln Wasser in Sauerstoff um, und umgekehrt, Sauerstoff zurück zu Wasser.

Insights into the various mechanisms by which Shewanella spp. induce and inhibit steel corrosion
Shewanella species are frequently selected as model strains to investigate microbially influenced steel corrosion. This selection is due to their relevance for corrosion, but also because of their easy cultivation in aerobic media.

Cable Bacteria Skeletons as Catalytically Active Electrodes
Biological cables as electrodes: Electrically conducting filamentous cable bacteria skeletons were used as free‐standing biological electrodes and displayed catalytic selectivity towards oxygen. The skeletons convert water to oxygen and oxygen back to water.

Isolation and characterization of electrochemically active subsurface Delftia and Azonexus species
Continental subsurface environments can present significant energetic challenges to the resident microorganisms. While these environments are geologically diverse, potentially allowing energy harvesting by microorganisms that catalyze redox reactions ...
