Microbes Facilitate Mineral Deposition in Bioelectrochemical Systems
Hydrothermal chimneys are striking, characteristic features of marine hydrothermal vents. These chimneys are dynamic environments occupied by a diversity of microbes whose distribution is typically concordant with mineralogy and temperature. Recent studies indicate that these chimney assemblages are conductive and present the possibility that microbial extracellular electron transfer may occur ...
متن کاملBioelectrochemical Imaging with Micro/Nanoelectrode Systems
This paper report a novel approach for bioimaging with two different micro/nanoelectrode systems; i. e., scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) and individually addressable microelectrode array. Hybrid SECM systems with shear-force or ion-conductance feedback distance control were applied to high resolution and simultaneous imaging of topography and electrochemical responses of enzymes and ...
متن کاملGenetically modified microorganisms for bioelectrochemical systems
Biotechnological utilization of microbial processes normally starts with the discovery, investigation, and understanding of naturally occurring microbial reactions. Biomolecular tools can help us, not only to gain better understanding of protein reactions; they also enable us to influence reaction properties. For efficient practical applications, modern biological techniques allow us to tailor ...
متن کاملGut microbes of mammalian herbivores facilitate intake of plant toxins.
The foraging ecology of mammalian herbivores is strongly shaped by plant secondary compounds (PSCs) that defend plants against herbivory. Conventional wisdom holds that gut microbes facilitate the ingestion of toxic plants; however, this notion lacks empirical evidence. We investigated the gut microbiota of desert woodrats (Neotoma lepida), some populations of which specialise on highly toxic c...
متن کاملAlamethicin suppresses methanogenesis and promotes acetogenesis in bioelectrochemical systems.
Microbial electrosynthesis (MES) systems with mixed cultures often generate a variety of gaseous and soluble chemicals. Methane is the primary end product in mixed-culture MES because it is the thermodynamically most favorable reduction product of CO2. Here, we show that the peptaibol alamethicin selectively suppressed the growth of methanogens in mixed-culture MES systems, resulting in a shift...
