Fabrication of bio-abiotic hybrid living hydrogel for bifunctional electrochemical conversion.

Design and intelligent use renewable natural bioenergy is an important challenge. Electric microorganism-based materials are being serve as an important part of bioenergy devices for energy release and collection, calling for suitable skeleton materials to anchor live microbes. Herein we verified the feasibility of constructing bio-abiotic hybrid living materials based on the combination of gelatin, Li-ions and exoelectrogenic bacteria Shewanella oneidensis manganese-reducing-1 (MR-1).
