Microbial Fuel Cells as Effective Tools for Energy Recovery and Antibiotic Detection in Water and Food

This work demonstrates that microbial fuel cells (MFCs), optimized for energy recovery, can be used as an effective tool to detect antibiotics in water-based environments. In MFCs, electroactive biofilms function as biocatalysts by converting the chemical energy of organic matter, which serves as th...
