Organic Microbial Electrochemical Transistor Monitoring Extracellular Electron Transfer
Advanced Science, 2020 AbstractExtracellular electron transfer (EET) denotes the process of microbial respiration with electron transfer to extracellular acceptors and has been exploited in a range of microbial electrochemical systems (MESs). To further understand EET and to optimize the performance of MESs, a better understanding of the dynamics at the microscale is needed.
