Facilitation of interspecies electron transfer in anaerobic processes through pine needle biochar

Water Science and Technology, 2022
Role of biochar in promoting methanogenesis during anaerobic processes was investigated in this research. Biochar produced from Himalayan pine needles was used as medium for conductive material mediated interspecies electron transfer (CM-IET) amongst the

Loss of hepatic SMLR1 causes hepatosteatosis and protects against atherosclerosis due to decreased hepatic VLDL secretion

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
The role of SMLR1 in lipid metabolism (high fat + cholesterol diet in mice) Abstract Background and Aims The assembly and secretion of VLDL from the liver, a pathway that affects hepatic and plasma lipids, remains incompletely understood. We set out to identify players in the VLDL biogenesis pathway by identifying genes that are co‐expressed with the ...

Genomic Insights into Syntrophic Lifestyle of ‘Candidatus Contubernalis alkaliaceticus’ Based on the Reversed Wood–Ljungdahl Pathway and Mechanism of Direct Electron Transfer

Life, 2023
The anaerobic oxidation of fatty acids and alcohols occurs near the thermodynamic limit of life. This process is driven by syntrophic bacteria that oxidize fatty acids and/or alcohols, their syntrophic partners that consume the products of this oxidation,

Enhanced Anaerobic Digestion Using Conductive Materials through Mediation of Direct Microbial Interspecies Electron Transfer: A Review

Fermentation, 2023
The anaerobic digestion (AD) of organic matter is susceptible to the challenges posed by low-speed electron transfer between microorganisms and the limitation of low hydrogen partial pressure, resulting in low methane recovery efficiency and poor system ...

Potential interactions between syntrophic bacteria and methanogens via type IV pili and quorum-sensing systems

Environment International, 2020
Interspecies electron transfer plays an important role in syntrophic methanogenesis. Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) between syntrophic oxidizers and methanogens via conductive pili has been only confirmed in some specific co-cultures.

Impact of Magnetite Nanoparticles Supplementation on the Anaerobic Digestion of Food Wastes: Batch and Continuous- Flow Investigations

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2016
Anaerobic digestion is one of the most attractive technologies for the treatment of industrial, civil and agricultural organic waste because of its capacity to reduce the biodegradable matter while recovering renewable energy in the form of methane ...

Putative Extracellular Electron Transfer in Methanogenic Archaea

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
It has been suggested that a few methanogens are capable of extracellular electron transfers. For instance, Methanosarcina barkeri can directly capture electrons from the coexisting microbial cells of other species.

Graphene Facilitates Biomethane Production from Protein-Derived Glycine in Anaerobic Digestion

iScience, 2018
Summary: Interspecies electron transfer is a fundamental factor determining the efficiency of anaerobic digestion (AD), which involves syntrophy between fermentative bacteria and methanogens.

Geobacter grbiciae—A New Electron Donor in the Formation of Co-Cultures via Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer

Microbiology Research, 2023
Geobacter grbiciae can grow via coupling oxidation of ethanol to the reduction of various forms of soluble Fe(III) and poorly crystalline Fe(III) oxide, suggesting that G.
