The Identification of Cable Bacteria Attached to the Anode of a Benthic Microbial Fuel Cell: Evidence of Long Distance Extracellular Electron Transport to Electrodes [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Multicellular, filamentous, sulfur-oxidizing bacteria, known as cable bacteria, were discovered attached to fibers of a carbon brush electrode serving as an anode of a benthic microbial fuel cell (BMFC).

Cell Cycle, Filament Growth and Synchronized Cell Division in Multicellular Cable Bacteria

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Cable bacteria are multicellular, Gram-negative filamentous bacteria that display a unique division of metabolic labor between cells. Cells in deeper sediment layers are oxidizing sulfide, while cells in the surface layers of the sediment are reducing ...

The effect of oxygen availability on long‐distance electron transport in marine sediments [PDF]

Limnology and Oceanography, 2018
AbstractCable bacteria are long, multicellular, filamentous bacteria that can conduct electrons over centimeter distances in marine and freshwater sediments. Recent studies indicate that cable bacteria are widely present in many coastal environments, where they exert a major influence on the biogeochemistry of the sediment.

Mixing states of Amazon basin aerosol particles transported over long distances using transmission electron microscopy [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2020
Abstract. The Amazon basin is important for understanding the global climate because of its carbon cycle and as a laboratory for obtaining basic knowledge of the continental background atmosphere. Aerosol particles play an important role in the climate and weather, and knowledge of their compositions and mixing states is necessary to understand their ...
