Structural Basis for Metallic-Like Conductivity in Microbial Nanowires

open access: yesmBio, 2015
Direct measurement of multiple physical properties of Geobacter sulfurreducens pili have demonstrated that they possess metallic-like conductivity, but several studies have suggested that metallic-like conductivity is unlikely based on the structures of ...

Use of a Coculture To Enable Current Production by Geobacter sulfurreducens [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2012
ABSTRACT Microbial fuel cells often produce more electrical power with mixed cultures than with pure cultures. Here, we show that a coculture of a nonexoelectrogen ( Escherichia coli ) and Geobacter sulfurreducens improved system performance relative to that of a pure culture of the

50 Years of Giese Reaction – a Personal View

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 7, 9 February 2026.
The Giese‐Reaction celebrates its 50. Birthday, it is a cyclic radical chain reaction centered around C,C‐bond formation in a three component synthesis. This minireview speaks about the birth of the name‐reaction, explains how the complete understanding of its reaction mechanism stimulates new methods in organic synthesis, and why it can proceed in ...

Limitations for Current Production in Geobacter sulfurreducens Biofilms

open access: yesChemSusChem, 2013
AbstractDevices that exploit electricity produced by electroactive bacteria such as Geobacter sulfurreducens have not yet been demonstrated beyond the laboratory scale. The current densities are far from the maximum that the bacteria can produce because fundamental properties such as the mechanism of extracellular electron transport and factors ...

Localization and Solubilization of the Iron(III) Reductase of Geobacter sulfurreducens [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 1998
ABSTRACT The iron(III) reductase activity of Geobacter sulfurreducens was determined with the electron donor NADH and the artificial electron donor horse heart cytochrome c . The highest reduction rates were obtained with Fe(III) complexed by nitrilotriacetic acid as an electron ...

The triheme cytochrome PpcF from Geobacter metallireducens exhibits distinct redox properties

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, 2018
Electrogenic bacteria, such as Geobacter, can couple the oxidation of carbon sources to the reduction of extracellular electron acceptors; such acceptors include toxic and radioactive metals, as well as electrode surfaces, making Geobacter a suitable ...

Link Between Capacity for Current Production and Syntrophic Growth in Geobacter species

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Electrodes are unnatural electron acceptors, and it is yet unknown how some Geobacter species evolved to use electrodes as terminal electron acceptors.

Screen-Printed Electrodes: New Tools for Developing Microbial Electrochemistry at Microscale Level

open access: yesEnergies, 2015
Microbial electrochemical technologies (METs) have a number of potential technological applications. In this work, we report the use of screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) as a tool to analyze the microbial electroactivity by using Geobacter sulfurreducens ...

Electricity Production byGeobacter sulfurreducensAttached to Electrodes [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2003
ABSTRACTPrevious studies have suggested that members of theGeobacteraceaecan use electrodes as electron acceptors for anaerobic respiration. In order to better understand this electron transfer process for energy production,Geobacter sulfurreducenswas inoculated into chambers in which a graphite electrode served as the sole electron acceptor and ...
