Changes in photosynthesis and grazing facilitate growth of a mixotrophic protist under ocean acidification and warming

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Grazing rates of Ochromonas CCMP2951 expressed as carbon obtained per mean cell volume (a) and Caut/het‐photosynthetically fixed carbon divided by carbon obtained through grazing (b) in the four experimental treatments. Summary Mixotrophic protists capable of both photosynthesis and phagotrophy are key members of marine plankton communities.

Microbial Fuel Cell

Research Journal of Biotechnology, 2023
There is global crisis due to fuel depletion and environmental pollution. The dependency on fossils for fuels is unsustainable due to its finite nature, so researchers are studying alternative sources of energy that are renewable in nature. A microbial fuel cell (MFC) is the device used to generate energy by converting chemical energy into electrical ...

Microbial fuel cells

Biochemical Society Transactions, 1983
Microbial fuel cells containingProteus vulgaris and oxidation-reduction (“redox”) mediators were investigated. The bacteria were chemically immobilized onto the surface of graphite felt electrodes, which supported production of continuous electric current and could be reused after storage A computer-controlled carbohydrate feed system enabled the cell ...

Miniaturizing microbial fuel cells

Trends in Biotechnology, 2011
Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) represent an emerging technology for electricity generation from renewable biomass. Given the demand for a better understanding of the bio/inorganic interface that plays a key role in MFC energy production, small-scale MFCs are receiving considerable attention owing to their intrinsic advantages in both fundamental studies ...

In Situ Fuel Processing in a Microbial Fuel Cell

ChemSusChem, 2012
AbstractA microbial fuel cell (MFC) was designed in which fuel is generated in the cell by the enzyme glucoamylase, which is displayed on the surface of yeast. The enzyme digests starch specifically into monomeric glucose units and as a consequence enables further glucose oxidation by microorganisms present in the MFC anode.

Microbial Fuel Cells:  Methodology and Technology

Environmental Science & Technology, 2006
Microbial fuel cell (MFC) research is a rapidly evolving field that lacks established terminology and methods for the analysis of system performance. This makes it difficult for researchers to compare devices on an equivalent basis. The construction and analysis of MFCs requires knowledge of different scientific and engineering fields, ranging from ...

Microbial Fuel Cells

2011
Although it has been more than two centuries since Luigi Galvani made the first observations of bioelectrical phenomenon, it is only in recent years that microbial fuel cells, or, more generally, bioelectrochemical systems, have attracted wide attention as devices that use microorganisms to assist a vast array of processes – from energy recovery from ...
