Temperature, inocula and substrate: contrasting electroactive consortia, diversity and performance in microbial fuel cells [PDF]

, 2018
The factors that affect microbial community assembly and its effects on the performance of bioelectrochemical systems are poorly understood. Sixteen microbial fuel cell (MFC) reactors were set up to test the importance of inoculum, temperature and ...

The ‘porin-cytochrome’ model for microbe-to-mineral electron transfer [PDF]

, 2012
Many species of bacteria can couple anaerobic growth to the respiratory reduction of insoluble minerals containing Fe(III) or Mn(III/IV). It has been suggested that in Shewanella species electrons cross the outer membrane to extracellular substrates via ‘

Microbial electrocatalysis with Geobacter sulfurreducens biofilm on stainless steel cathodes [PDF]

, 2008
Stainless steel and graphite electrodes were individually addressed and polarized at−0.60V vs. Ag/AgCl in reactors filled with a growth medium that contained 25mM fumarate as the electron acceptor and no electron donor, in order to force the microbial ...

The genome of Geobacter bemidjiensis, exemplar for the subsurface clade of Geobacter species that predominate in Fe(III)-reducing subsurface environments.

BMC Genomics, 2010
Background Geobacter species in a phylogenetic cluster known as subsurface clade 1 are often the predominant microorganisms in subsurface environments in which Fe(III) reduction is the primary electron-accepting process.

Effect of the semi-conductive properties of the passive layer on the current provided by stainless steel microbial cathodes [PDF]

, 2011
Geobacter sulfur reducens biofilms were formed under constant polarisation at −0.6 V vs. Ag/AgCl on stainless steel cathodes to catalyse the reduction of fumarate.

Geobacter abundance in soil regulate by pH and iron-bearing minerals

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution
As an electrogenic bacterium, Geobacter plays a crucial role in the geochemical cycles of arable soil. However, little is known about the existence of Geobacter and its impact factors in paddy soil and purple soil.
