This study elucidates the role of micrometer-scale electrode surface structures on the growth
and the electrochemical performance of mixed culture electrochemically active biofilms …

Recent studies of electrochemically active bacteria paint a mechanistic picture where
multistep hopping of electrons can be driven by redox gradients, allowing electron …

Microbial biofilms grown utilizing electrodes as metabolic electron acceptors or donors are a
new class of biomaterials with distinct electronic properties. Here we report that electron …

Metal-reducing bacteria direct electrons to their outer surfaces, where insoluble metal oxides
or electrodes act as terminal electron acceptors, generating electrical current from anaerobic …

In nature, biofilms are the most common form of bacterial growth. In biofilms, bacteria display
coordinated behaviour to perform specific functions. Here, we investigated electrical …

Electrochemically active biofilms (EABs) are formed by electroactive bacteria capable of
exchanging electrons with electrodes. EABs have been employed as bio-elements in …

Numerous bacteria owe extracellular electron transport (EET) ability, and the rate
enhancement of EET is critical for the emerging sensor technology to detect metabolically …

Biofouling is a major problem caused by bacteria colonizing abiotic surfaces, such as
medical devices. Biofilms are formed as the bacterial metabolism adapts to an attached …

Wired-up bacteria: Confocal Raman microscopy in combination with 3D structural analysis is
used in the measurement of redox gradients in electricity-producing biofilms in vivo. The …

Flagella are widely expressed in electroactive biofilms; however, their actual role is
unknown. To understand the role of flagella, two Geobacter sulfurreducens strains (KN400 …
