This paper investigates the ability of exoelectrogenic bacteria to generate electricity in microbial fuel cells (MFCs), demonstrating that certain microorganisms can transfer electrons to an electrode, thereby producing a measurable electrical current. The study highlights the potential of MFCs as a sustainable and renewable energy source, powered by the metabolic activities of microorganisms. The findings contribute to the understanding of the electrochemical interactions between microorganisms and electrodes in MFCs.
