TLDR
The results of this study demonstrated that anaerobic digesters supplemented with conductive carbon cloth had a higher capacity to resist the acidic impacts, and suggested that the predominant working mode for the interspecies electron exchange might have shifted from IHT to DIET in the presence of the conductivecarbon cloth during acidic impacts.

Visualization of charge propagation along individual pili proteins using ambient electrostatic force microscopy

TL;DR: It is shown that electrostatic force microscopy can be used to directly visualize charge propagation along pili of Geobacter sulfurreducens with nanometre resolution and under ambient conditions, suggesting that the pil of G. sulfurringucens function as molecular wires with transport via delocalized charges, rather than the hopping mechanism that is typical of biological electron transport.

Conductive iron oxides accelerate thermophilic methanogenesis from acetate and propionate.

TL;DR: It is suggested that supplementation of magnetite induce electric syntrophy between organic acid-oxidizing bacteria and methanogenic archaea and accelerate methanogenesis even under thermophilic conditions, which would provide a possibility for the achievement of stably operating thermophile anaerobic digestion systems with high efficiency.
