Microorganisms can acquire energy from the environment by extending their electron
transport chains to external solid electron donors or acceptors. This process, known as …

Extracellular electron transfer is a key metabolic process of many organisms that enables
them to exchange electrons with extracellular electron donors/acceptors. The discovery of …

Extracellular electron transfer pathways allow certain bacteria to transfer energy between
intracellular chemical energy stores and extracellular solids through redox reactions …

Electron transfer between microorganisms and an electrode—even across long distances—
enables the former to live by coupling to an electronic circuit. Such a system integrates …

Microbial electrochemical techniques describe a variety of emerging technologies that use
electrode–bacteria interactions for biotechnology applications including the production of …

Redox mediator plays an important role in extracellular electron transfer (EET) in many
environments wherein microbial electrocatalysis occurs actively. Because of the block of cell …

Electroactive bacteria produce or consume electrical current by moving electrons to and
from extracellular acceptors and donors. This specialized process, known as extracellular …

Extracellular electron transfer (EET) via microbial nanowires drives globally-important
environmental processes and biotechnological applications for bioenergy, bioremediation …

Electrochemically active bacteria can transport their metabolically generated electrons to
anodes, or accept electrons from cathodes to synthesize high‐value chemicals and fuels, via …

Autotrophic microbes can acquire electrons from solid donors such as steel, other microbial
cells, or electrodes. Based on this feature, bioprocesses are being developed for the …
