Enhanced biohydrogen production and substrate utilization by co-culture fermentation with reduced extracellular electron shuttles
… and G. metallireducens with extracellular electron shuttles was developed and evaluated for improved biohydrogen production. To enhance biohydrogen production, Clostridium beijerinckii was co-cultured with Geobacter metallireducens in the presence of the reduced extracellular electron …

Reduced extracellular electron shuttles increase hydrogen production and substrate utilization in pure culture Clostridium beijerinckii fermentation
… physiological strategy (adding reduced electron shuttles) to increase the hydrogen production yield, kinetics and substrate utilization in a model hydrogen producing microorganism-Clostridium beijerinckii fermentation system. Results show that adding extracellular hydroquinones …

Increasing fermentative butanol production in Clostridium beijerinckii using oxidized extracellular electron shuttling molecules
… This research focuses on using extracellular electron shuttles to alter the metabolic pathways in Clostridium beijerinckii NCIMB 8052 fermentation to increase butanol yield with glucose as a primary substrate. 1-5mM anthraquinone-2,6-disulfonate (AQDS), the oxidized form of the electron …

Extracellular Electron Shuttle Mediated Biodegradation of Hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine
… contaminants. The potential use of extracellular electron shuttling compounds to mediate electron transfer between iron (hydr)oxides and Fe(III)-reducing microorganisms was investigated for decontaminating RDX. The ultimate goal of this study is to develop an optimal strategy for the …

Importance of Sulfide, Polysulfides, and Elemental Sulfur for Abiotic and Biotic Redox Processes in Sulfur-Metal(loid)Systems
… or polysulfides were proposed to serve as electron shuttles between bacteria and ferric minerals. We found elemental sulfur, attached to the mineral surface, as predominant sulfur oxidation product. Besides thiosulfate, tetrathionate, sulfite, and sulfide, polysulfides could initiate the …
