MFC with E. coli PDF Print E-mail
Friday, 06 February 2009
Hi I'm Rachel, a freshmen at Falmouth Academy, in Falmouth, MA. For my almost 6-month science fair project this year I made a Microbial Fuel Cell with E. coli. I also used the voltages measured from the MFC to model the growth curve of E. coli.  I am now writing my analysis section of my paper and was wondering if anyone else had made a MFC with E. coli so I could make a comparison with the amount of energy generated in my MFC (which was .44V at the largest).
Thanks!

Hi Viktorvish, im also working on MFC with ecoli and im planing for a continuous flow of ecoli and doing some changes at cathodes. can i hav the papers you mentioned.

hi there, i too have made a mfc with e.coli and generated at amax of .5 volt which sustained for 1 hour and then dropped to 0.213 volt and remained for 48 hours

Hi Rachel, Dunno if I am too late. But here are two publications which have used MFCs with E. coli. If you need the files I can send them to you by email. Hope I could be of some help.  
 
Schroder U, Nieben J, Scholz F. A generation of microbial fuel cells 
with current outputs boosted by more than on e order of magnitude. 
Angewandte Chemie International Edition 2003;42:2880–3.
