Abstract:Microbacteriaceae are a class of metabolically versatile gram-positive bacteria found in diverse environments. In sediments populated with filamentous cable bacteria, electric interspecies interactions between microbes and cable bacteria have been suggested. A novel, gram-positive bacterium, Microbacterium deferre strain A1-JK was isolated from the vicinity of a cable bacterium filament, capable of extracellular electron transfer (EET) to Fe(III) oxides and electrodes. Electrochemical experiments with pure cul… Show more
