SAMN12215110 Desulfuromonas acetexigens 2873 Desulfuromonas acetexigens Desulfuromonas acetexigens strain 2873, first isolated from digester sludge from the Gottingen, Germany, sewage treatment plant, is a Gramnegative, non-spore-forming anaerobic bacterium that is capable of chemoorganotrophic growth on acetate as the energy and carbon source with elemental sulfur, fumarate, or malate as electron acceptors. Recently, its high abundance in mixed culture anodic biofilms of current-generating microbial electrochemical systems suggests its role in current generation. Pure culture studies in MESs confirmed that D. acetexigens strain 2873 is capable of extracellular electron transfer.
