Isolation and Polyphasic Characterization of <i>Desulfuromonas versatilis</i> sp. Nov., an Electrogenic Bacteria Capable of Versatile Metabolism Isolated from a Graphene Oxide-Reducing Enrichment Culture
In this study, a novel electrogenic bacterium denoted as strain NIT-T3 of the genus <i>Desulfuromonas</i> was isolated from a graphene-oxide-reducing enrichment culture that was originally obtained from a mixture of seawater and coastal sand. Strain NIT-T3 utilized hydrogen and various o...
