Electronic transference assessment of the redox processes at carbon electrodes coated with Geobacter sulfurreducens that grown at different temperatures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In the present study, the kinetic parameters of redox reactions and the proteomic profiles of Geobacter sulfurreducens grown at different temperatures (25 ºC and 37 ºC) were evaluated. Oxidation peaks with different potentials and current intensities

Recent advances in electron transfer between biofilms and metals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Microbial biofilms produce electrochemical interactions with metal surfaces by following a wide variety of different electron exchange pathways. Reviewing the mechanisms identified in the biocorrosion of steels leads us to distinguish direct and indirect

Genomic Analyses of Bacterial Porin-Cytochrome Gene Clusters

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2014
The porin-cytochrome (Pcc) protein complex is responsible for trans-outer membrane electron transfer during extracellular reduction of Fe(III) by the dissimilatory metal-reducing bacterium Geobacter sulfurreducens PCA.

The genome of Pelobacter carbinolicus reveals surprising metabolic capabilities and physiological features [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background The bacterium Pelobacter carbinolicus is able to grow by fermentation, syntrophic hydrogen/formate transfer, or electron transfer to sulfur from short-chain alcohols, hydrogen or formate; it does not oxidize acetate and is not known to ferment

Charge accumulation and electron transfer kinetics in Geobacter sulfurreducens biofilms

open access: yesEnergy & Environmental Science, 2012
Electroactive bacteria can use a polarized electrode as final electron acceptor, allowing the use of electrochemical techniques for a very accurate quantification of its respiration rate. Biofilm cell respiration has been recently demonstrated to continue after the interruption of electrode polarization since these bacteria can store electrons in the ...

Microbes, cables, and an electrical touch [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
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 ...

Extracellular electron transfer proteins contribute to reduction of ferric minerals by Geobacter biofilms

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology
To investigate how the thickness and extracellular electron transfer (EET) capabilities of microbial biofilms influence the reduction of ferric iron [Fe(III)]-containing minerals, we utilized four strains of Geobacter sulfurreducens with varying biofilm ...
