Title Electrochemical and phylogenetic analyses of current-generating microorganisms in a thermophilic microbial fuel cell.
Journal J Biosci Bioeng
Abstract To explore diversity of thermophilic exoelectrogens, a thermophilic microbial fuel cell was constructed. Population analysis of the anodic microorganisms suggested possible involvement of Caloramator-related bacteria in electricity generation. Pure culture of Caloramator australicus showed electricity-generating ability, indicating that the bacterium is a new thermophilic exoelectrogen.
