Abstract
Key findings
- The biofilm corrodes carbon steel at 80°C, indicating its ability to thrive in high-temperature environments.
- The archaeon utilizes elemental iron as an electron donor, bypassing traditional electron transfer mechanisms.
- Extracellular electron transfer is implicated in the biofilm's ability to corrode carbon steel.
