Microbial electrolysis cell with a microbial biocathode

Bioelectrochemistry, 2010
This study demonstrates, for the first time, the proof-of-principle of an MEC in which both the anodic and cathodic reaction are catalyzed by microorganisms. No expensive chemical catalysts, such as platinum, are needed. Two of these MECs were simultaneously operated and reached a maximum of 1.4 A/m(2) at an applied cell voltage of 0.5 V.

Microbial Polythioesters

Macromolecular Bioscience, 2004
AbstractSummary: This feature article describes the current knowledge on biosynthesis of polythioesters (PTEs), which are exclusively accumulated by microorganisms capable to synthesize the well‐known polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs). Two bacterial PTE biosynthesis systems are discussed, both are depending on the cultivation conditions and appropriate ...
