Abstract Filamentous cable bacteria exhibit long-range electron transport over centimetre-scale distances, which takes place in a parallel fibre structure with high electrical conductivity. Still, the underlying mechanism remains undisclosed. Here we determine intrinsic properties of conductive fibres from material science perspective. Impedance spectroscopy provides an equivalent circuit model, demonstrates that dry filaments function as resistive biological wires. Temperature-dependent...
Abstract Cable bacteria are centimeter-long multicellular conducting electricity through periplasmic conductive fibers (PCFs). Using single-strain enrichments of the genera Electrothrix and Electronema we systematically investigate variations similarities in morphology electrical properties across both genera. Electrical conductivity different PCFs spans three orders magnitude warranting further investigations plasticity their conduction machinery. electron microscopy elemental analyses,...
Abstract Cable bacteria encompass at least two genera, and they are known to vary greatly in habitat preferences filament thickness. We systematically investigated variations similarities cellular structures electrical properties of different cable strains. Using SEM, TEM, STEM-EDX ToF-SIMS, we characterized shared features bacteria, such as inner outer membranes, surface layer cell junction architecture, well strain specific features, like the number size periplasmic conductive fibers...
Abstract A new benign aqueous route toward bismuth‐containing photoelectrodes is proposed to eliminate the need for harmful organic solvents and/or acids. CuBi 2 O 4 photocathode prepared by stabilizing metal ions through complexation in pH neutral solutions. Merits of approach are elemental homogeneity (with unique doping possibilities) and ease fabrication (e.g., high scalability). The precursor forms a nearly phase‐pure kusachiite crystalline phase free organics residuals capable water...
