The global industrialization and modernization have witnessed a rapid progress made in
agricultural production, along with the issue of soil heavy metal (HM) pollution, which has …

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

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

OmcZ nanowires produced by Geobacter species have high electron conductivity (> 30 S
cm− 1). Of 111 cytochromes present in G. sulfurreducens, OmcZ is the only known nanowire …

Electrically conductive appendages from the anaerobic bacterium Geobacter sulfurreducens
were first observed two decades ago, with genetic and biochemical data suggesting that …

Electroactive bacteria (EAB) are natural microorganisms (mainly Bacteria and Archaea)
living in various habitats (eg, water, soil, sediment), including extreme ones, which can …

The dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA) process was known as a short
circuit in nitrogen cycle, a key step in recovering nitrogen from nitrate wastewater, and has …

Microbial corrosion of iron-based materials is a substantial economic problem. A
mechanistic understanding is required to develop mitigation strategies, but previous …

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 …

Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a microbial process that produces renewable energy in the form
of methane by treating organic waste and high-strength wastewater. Recent studies have …
