TL;DR: In situ demonstration of flavin production, and sequestration at surfaces, requires the paradigm of soluble redox shuttles in geochemistry to be adjusted to include binding and modification of surfaces.

TL;DR: These techniques provide the basis for cataloging quantifiable, defined electron transfer phenotypes as a function of potential, electrode material, growth phase, and culture conditions and provide a framework for comparisons with other species or communities.

TL;DR: In this article, a simple one-pot green chemical method for the biosynthesis of gold nanoparticles by reducing chloroauric acid (HAuCl4) with protein extract of Rhizopus oryzae to produce novel gold nano-bio-conjugates (AuNBCs) was described.

TL;DR: The known mechanisms for Au NP biosynthesis in viable fungi and fungal protein extracts are described and the most suitable bioreactors for industrial AuNP biosynthesis are discussed.

TL;DR: The consistent electrochemistry, growth rate, and growth yield of the G. sulfurreducens biofilm at all stages suggests an initial phase where cells must optimize attachment or electron transfer to a surface, and that after this point, the rate of electron production by cells remains rate limiting compared to the rate electrons can be transferred between cells, and to electrodes.
