There have been many factors observed that affect electron transfer processes between the
cells in biofilms and a solid electrode. In this work we investigated the role of pH, redox …

Chair: Haluk Beyenal, Ph. D. The chemical and electrochemical gradients, or collectively
microscale gradients, in biofilms play a critical role in electron transfer processes between …

In the recent years, considerable body of research has been carried out in the field of
bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) for treatment of wastewater and generation of power. In …

Electrochemical gradients are the backbone of basic cellular functions, including chemo-
osmotic transport and ATP synthesis. Microbial growth, terminal respiratory proteins and …

This review examines the electrochemical techniques used to study extracellular electron
transfer in the electrochemically active biofilms that are used in microbial fuel cells and other …

This chapter reviews electron transfer kinetics from an electron donor to the anode in
microbial electrochemical cells (MxCs), focusing on extracellular electron transfer (EET) …

Microbial respiration is based on electron transfer from electron donors to electron acceptors–
a series of reactions facilitated by a cascade of energetic substances; these are well-known …

Earlier chapters in this book describe electrochemically active biofilms (EABs) and provide
tools and techniques to study them. Although there are differences in proposed mechanisms …

Electroactive biofilms are capable of extracellular electron transfer to insoluble metal oxides
and electrodes; such biofilms are relevant to biogeochemistry, bioremediation, and …

Bioelectrochemical systems couple electricity demand/supply to the metabolic redox
reactions of microorganisms. Generally, electrodes act not only as electron …
