Electroactive microorganisms markedly affect many environments in which they establish
outer-surface electrical contacts with other cells and minerals or reduce soluble extracellular …

Mineral–microbe interactions play important roles in environmental change, biogeochemical
cycling of elements and formation of ore deposits. Minerals provide both beneficial (physical …

Electrons can be transferred from microorganisms to multivalent metal ions that are
associated with minerals and vice versa. As the microbial cell envelope is neither physically …

Mixed-valent iron [Fe (II)-Fe (III)] minerals such as magnetite and green rust have received a
significant amount of attention over recent decades, especially in the environmental …

The study of electrically conductive protein nanowires in Geobacter sulfurreducens has led
to new concepts for long-range extracellular electron transport, as well as for the …

Building on the success of its 1993 predecessor, this second edition of Geochemistry,
Groundwater and Pollution has been thoroughly re-written, updated and extended to …

Geobacter species specialize in making electrical contacts with extracellular electron
acceptors and other organisms. This permits Geobacter species to fill important niches in a …

Throughout Earth history, almost all preserved organic matter has been incorporated in
marine sediments deposited under oxygenated waters along continental margins. Given …

This book presents an introduction to the chemistry of the solid-water interface. Stressing
surface chemical principles that can be applied in the geochemistry of natural waters, soils …

Iron (Fe) has long been a recognized physiological requirement for life, yet for many
microorganisms that persist in water, soils and sediments, its role extends well beyond that …
