Extracellular riboflavin induces anaerobic biofilm formation in Shewanella oneidensis

bioRxiv, 2021
Background Some microorganisms can respire with extracellular electron acceptors using an extended electron transport chain to the cell surface. This process can be applied in bioelectrochemical systems in which the organisms produce an electrical ...
