A mathematical model for electrochemically active filamentous sulfide-oxidising bacteria.
Oxygen and sulfide in ocean sediments can be consumed biologically over long spatial distances by way of filamentous bacteria in electron-conducting sheaths. To analyse observations, a mathematical model of these filamentous sulfur-oxidising bacteria was developed, including electrical conduction between reactive zones. Mechanisms include Nernst-Planck diffusion and migration of ions coupled wi...

the chromosomal 8-oxoadipate pathway. This combination of metabolic possibilities is available to neither the wild type nor the cured strains. The transmissibility of many plasmids obviously increases the opportunities for genetic rearrangements as outlined above, including recombination with other plasmids or with chromosomal material, and is one way strains may arise from mixed populations wi...
متن کاملA Photometric High-Throughput Method for Identification of Electrochemically Active Bacteria Using a WO3 Nanocluster Probe
Electrochemically active bacteria (EAB) are ubiquitous in environment and have important application in the fields of biogeochemistry, environment, microbiology and bioenergy. However, rapid and sensitive methods for EAB identification and evaluation of their extracellular electron transfer ability are still lacking. Herein we report a novel photometric method for visual detection of EAB by usi...
متن کاملOffice Paper Platform for Bioelectrochromic Detection of Electrochemically Active Bacteria using Tungsten Trioxide Nanoprobes
Electrochemically active bacteria (EAB) have the capability to transfer electrons to cell exterior, a feature that is currently explored for important applications in bioremediation and biotechnology fields. However, the number of isolated and characterized EAB species is still very limited regarding their abundance in nature. Colorimetric detection has emerged recently as an attractive mean fo...
متن کاملIsolation and Analysis of Novel Electrochemically Active Bacteria for Enhanced Power Generation in Microbial Fuel Cells
PROJECT SUMMARY Bacteria capable of exocellular transfer of electrons to solid surfaces, called exoelectrogens, make it possible to obtain electricity from the breakdown of organic matter in microbial fuel cells (MFCs). We obtained several new exoelectrogenic bacteria during this project. We isolated Rhodopseudomonas palustris DX-1, and demonstrated for the first time that a pure culture could ...
