Pulse electromagnetic fields enhance extracellular electron transfer in magnetic bioelectrochemical systems

Abstract Background Microbial extracellular electron transfer (EET) is essential in driving the microbial interspecies interaction and redox reactions in bioelectrochemical systems (BESs). Magnetite (Fe3O4) and magnetic fields (MFs) were recently reported to promote microbial EET, but the mechanisms...
