Research found bacteria that can be used to manufacture highly efficient microbial cells
LOS ANGELES (Xinhua net) University of Massachusetts, U.S. researchers have successfully isolated a large number of small protrusions whose surface bacteria, because of their prominent surface of highly conductive, the bacterium is of microbial fuel cells more production capacity.
AAAS website recently reported that the U. S. University of Massachusetts researchers have isolated bacteria from the fuel cell of the large population of the graphite anode and form the anode surface of a thick layer of conductive biofilm. The researchers explain that many of the processes of bacterial surface proteins is composed of tiny fibers, they are like “nanoscale wire can be transmitted by the membrane currents, using bacteria to produce fuel cells will improve much power the battery.
As can be prolonged, efficient supply of electricity, microbial fuel cell can be used for those who are placed in the remote environment, it is difficult to replace 398876-001 batteries frequently surveillance equipment, such as water sensors deep used to observe sea turtles, etc.
