Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleNanowire Mediated Effect of Interspecies Electron Transfer in Organic Solid Waste Co-FermentationJingkang Chen, Daicheng Liu et al.Low efficiency of Interspecific Electron Transfer (IET) among microorganisms constrains organic matter degradation and biogas production in organic solid waste co‑fermentation. This work investigates the underlying bottleneck and evaluates the nanowire‑mediated enhancement of IET. Surface plasmon resonance‑enhanced electrochemical impedance spectroscopy coupled with metagenomic and metatranscriptomic sequencing was applied to regulate endogenous nanowire formation in anaerobic reactors. Surface Plasmon Resonance-Enhanced Electrochemical … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 9 Oct 2026 · 591 accessesView PDFCite
