• Geobacter: the microbe electric's physiology, ecology, and practical applications. (2011, background): “G. metallireducens appeared to reduce Cr(VI) (Lovley et al., 1993a), but this is another species that Fe(II) can readily reduce abiotically.”
• Degradation of BTEX by anaerobic bacteria: physiology and application (2010, background): “Geobacter metallireducens can also use nitrate, Mn(IV) or humic substances as the electron acceptor (Lovley et al. 1993; Coates et al. 2001a).”
• Stimulating the In Situ Activity of Geobacter Species To Remove Uranium from the Groundwater of a Uranium-Contaminated Aquifer (2003, background): “Beyond 52 days the relative abundance of “Geobacteraceae” detected within the microbial community continued to decrease, falling to below 7% by day 80, when the microbial community became dominated (45”
• Graphite electrodes as electron donors for anaerobic respiration. (2004, background): “metallireducens is unable to use hydrogen as an electron donor (Lovley et al., 1993), probably because it lacks the genes for the hydrogenase found to be essential for hydrogenbased respiration in G.”
• Microbial reduction of metals and radionuclides. (2003, background): “metallireducens were able to transfer electrons to soluble Au(III) [28].”
