YAWATAHAMA, Ehime – Shikoku Electric Power Co. and researchers from the Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology and other organizations have begun tests to prove the possibility of “microbial ...

Scientists have found that some bacteria breathe by generating electricity. The natural process pushes electrons into their surroundings instead of breathing oxygen. The mechanism is expected to ...

Pee can be transformed into electricity with the help of bacterial metabolism, thanks to a device created by researchers at the University of the West of England, where Spanish researchers are working ...

Scientists have discovered a species of bacteria that can act as electric wiring, according to a new study. The bacteria, named Ca. Electrothrix yaqonensis, could usher in a "new era of bioelectronic ...

These bacteria don’t eat food or breathe air like we do. All they need is to complete a circuit; that’s enough for them to ...

“Our research not only solves a long-standing scientific mystery, but it also points to a new and potentially widespread survival strategy in nature,” said Ajo-Franklin, professor of biosciences, ...
