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

Electroactive microorganisms acting as microbial electrocatalysts have intrinsic metabolisms
that mediate a redox potential difference between solid electrodes and microbes, leading to …

Harvesting energy from the environment offers the promise of clean power for self-sustained
systems,. Known technologies—such as solar cells, thermoelectric devices and mechanical …

Summary Long-range (> 10 μm) transport of electrons along networks of Geobacter
sulfurreducens protein filaments, known as microbial nanowires, has been invoked to …

Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) has biogeochemical significance, and practical
applications that rely on DIET or DIET-based aspects of microbial physiology are growing …

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 …

The excessive consumption of fossil fuels causes massive emission of CO2, leading to
climate deterioration and environmental pollution. The development of substitutes and …

Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) is a recently discovered microbial syntrophy
where cell-to-cell electron transfer occurs between syntrophic microbial species. DIET …

Geobacter, as a typical electroactive microorganism, is the “engine” of interspecies electron
transfer (IET) between microorganisms. However, it does not have a dominant position in all …

Neuromorphic materials are promising for fabricating artificial synapses for flexible
electronics, but they are usually expensive and lack a good combination of electronic and …
