摘要
(Figure Presented) Down to the wire: electro-active bacteria that exchange electrons with solid electrodes are studied by electrochemical and infrared techniques. The approach allows the identification of cell-surface molecules involved in the direct electron transfer to the electrode, a development that is crucial for future utilization of these electricity-producing microorganisms. © 2008 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
