abstract |
TMO electrodes provide a suitable platform for spectroscopy- and microscopy-based
investigation of viable EABs. Commercially available TMOs, such as ITO, are produced
from rare and expensive elements. Thus, there is a significant need to explore alternative
technology to meet the demand. ZnO-based TMOs are low- cost and have excellent electrochemical
properties. In this study, we report for the first time a model EAB of Shewanella
loihica PV-4 on ZnO films deposited on perspex substrates via PLD. Commercially available
ITO electrodes were also used for comparison. EAB electroactivity was characterized
through MBV. ITO and ZnO films show flat surfaces and amorphous structure, and have
60 and 105 Ω/sq. sheet resistance, respectively. <i>S. loihica</i> PV-4 biofilms on
ITO and ZnO produced maximum current density of 3.38 and 0.25 µA/cm2, respectively.
Our results suggest that ZnO has potential for the growth and characterization of
EABs. |
