The microbial communities of the rust layer were influenced by seawater microbial communities.

To reveal the responsible microorganisms of microbiologically-influenced-corrosion (MIC), using 16S rRNA and ITS sequencing techniques, we investigated the bacterial and fungal communities in rust layer and seawater. Results show that the corrosion-related genera of , , and bacteria, as well as fungi, were overrepresented in the rust layer, along with the and bacteria in seawater, and , , and bacteria were first detected in the rust layer. SourceTracker analysis revealed that approximately 23.

High-Entropy Ceramics Enhanced Droplet Electricity Generator for Energy Harvesting and Bacterial Detection.

The droplet electricity generator (DEG) is a solid-liquid triboelectric nanogenerator with transistor-inspired bulk effect, which is regarded as an effective strategy for raindrop energy harvesting. However, further enhancement of DEG output voltage is necessary to enable its widespread applications. Here, high-entropy ceramics are integrated into the design of DEG intermediate layer for the first time, achieving a high output voltage of 525 V.
