Electromicrobiology: Electron Transfer via Biowires in Nature and Practical Applications
BIO Web of Conferences, 2016 One of the most exciting developments in the field of electromicrobiology has been the discovery of electrically conductive pili (e-pili) in Geobacter species that transport electrons with a metallic-like mechanism.

Interspecies ecological competition rejuvenates decayed Geobacter electroactive biofilm
The ISME JournalAbstract Bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) exploit electroactive biofilms (EABs) for promising applications in biosensing, wastewater treatment, energy production, and chemical biosynthesis. However, during the operation of BESs, EABs inevitably decay.
