Theoretical characterisation of electron tunnelling from granular activated carbon to electron accepting organisms in direct interspecies electron transfer [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) has been identified as an efficient metabolism between symbiotically interacting organisms. One method of DIET uses conductive materials (e.g., granular activated carbon (GAC)) as a medium to shuttle electrons

Modelling extracellular limitations for mediated versus direct interspecies electron transfer. [PDF]
ISME J, 2016 Abstract Interspecies electron transfer (IET) is important for many anaerobic processes, but is critically dependent on mode of transfer. In particular, direct IET (DIET) has been recently proposed as a metabolically advantageous mode compared with mediated IET (MIET) via hydrogen or formate.

Direct interspecies electron transfer between Geobacter metallireducens and Methanosarcina barkeri. [PDF]
Appl Environ Microbiol, 2014 ABSTRACT Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) is potentially an effective form of syntrophy in methanogenic communities, but little is known about the diversity of methanogens capable of DIET. The ability of Methanosarcina barkeri to participate in DIET was evaluated in coculture with ...

Expanding the Diet for DIET: Electron Donors Supporting Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer (DIET) in Defined Co-Cultures [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) has been recognized as an alternative to interspecies H2 transfer as a mechanism for syntrophic growth, but previous studies on DIET with defined co-cultures have only documented DIET with ethanol as the ...

Methanobacterium Capable of Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer [PDF]
Environmental Science & Technology, 2020 Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) from bacteria to methanogens is a revolutionary concept for syntrophic metabolism in methanogenic soils/sediments and anaerobic digestion. Previous studies have indicated that the potential for DIET is limited to methanogens in the Methanosarcinales, leading to the assumption that an abundance of other types
