General information

Species:  Geobacter sp. (strain M21)
Species code: GEOSM
Taxonomy: Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Deltaproteobacteria; Desulfuromonadales; Geobacteraceae; Geobacter (TaxID: 443144) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description: Geobacter sp. (strain M21) is an anaerobic, chemolithotrophic Gram-negative bacterium isolated from an in situ uranium bioremediation experiment in Rifle, Colorado, USA. Bacteria from this genus are of interest because of their novel electron transfer capabilities, impact on the natural environment, their application to the bioremediation of contaminated environments and harvesting electricity from waste organic matter. Geobacter species shown the ability to transfer electrons onto the surface of electrodes, allowing the construction of microbial fuel cells which produce electricity out of waste organic matter.
