Abstract
This study employs a bibliography study method to evaluate 472 papers focused on Shewanella oneidensis biofilms. Biofilms, which are formed when microorganisms adhere to surfaces or interfaces, play a crucial role in various natural, engineered, and medical settings. Within biofilms, microorganisms are enclosed in extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), creating a stable working environment. This characteristic enhances the practicality of biofilm-based systems in natural bioreactors, as they are less susceptible to temperature and pH fluctuations compared to enzyme-based bioprocesses. Shewanella oneidensis, a nonpathogenic bacterium with the ability to transfer electrons, serves as an example of a species isolated from its environment that exhibits extensive biofilm applications. These applications, such as heavy metal removal, offer potential benefits for environmental engineering and human health. This paper presents a comprehensive examination and review of the biology and engineering aspects of Shewanella biofilms, providing valuable insights into their functionality.

Abstract
The ability of bacteria to facilitate fabrication of nanomaterials has been adapted towards bacterial sensing applications. In this work, we fabricate spherical, cubic and truncated octahedron topologies of Cu2O nanoparticles via E. coli-facilitated redox reaction in an electrochemical setup. The Cu2O nanoparticles exhibit cytochrome c oxidase-like activity with the spherical topology displaying higher catalytic rate compared to the other geometries. The topology-dependent catalytic behavior of Cu2O nanoparticles has not been reported previously. The Cu2O nanozymes also display E. coli killing activity in a topology-correlated manner. The E. coli mediated redox reaction in an electrochemical setup is being reported for the first time for synthesis of different topologies of Cu2O which also exert a variable antibacterial effect.

Abstract
The interactions between soil microorganisms and soil minerals play a crucial role in the formation and evolution of minerals and the stability of soil aggregates. Due to the heterogeneity and diversity of the soil environment, the under-standing of the functions of bacterial biofilms in soil minerals at the microscale is limited. A soil mineral-bacterial biofilm system was used as a model in this study, and it was analyzed by time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) to acquire molecular level information. Static culture in multi-wells and dynamic flow-cell culture in microfluidics of biofilms were investigated. Our results show that more characteristic molecules of biofilms can be observed in SIMS spectra of the flow-cell culture. In contrast, biofilm signature peaks are buried under the mineral components in SIMS spectra in the static culture case. Spectral overlay was used in peak selection prior to performing Principal component analysis (PCA). Comparisons of the PCA results between the static and flow-cell culture show more pronounced molecular features and higher loadings of organic peaks of the dynamic cultured specimens. For example, fatty acids secreted from bacterial biofilm extracellular polymeric substance are likely to be responsible for biofilm dispersal due to mineral treatment up to 48 h. Such findings suggest that the use of microfluidic cells to dynamically culture biofilms be a more suitable method for reducing the matrix effect arisen from the growth medium and minerals as a perturbation fac-tor for improved spectral and multivariate analysis of complex mass spectral data in ToF-SIMS. These results show that the interaction mechanism between biofilms and soil minerals at the molecular level can be better studied using the flow-cell culture and advanced mass spectral imaging techniques like ToF-SIMS.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 454:131545.

Abstract
Electroactive bacteria (EAB) and metal oxides are capable of synergistically removing chloramphenicol (CAP). However, the effects of redox-active metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) on CAP degradation with EAB are not yet known. This study investigated the synergism of iron-based MOFs (Fe-MIL-101) and Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 on CAP degradation. 0.5 g/L Fe-MIL-101 with more possible active sites led to a three-fold higher CAP removal rate in the synergistic system with MR-1 (initial bacterial concentration of 0.2 at OD600), and showed a superior catalytic effect than exogenously added Fe(III)/Fe(II) or magnetite. Mass spectrometry revealed that CAP was transformed into smaller molecular weight and less toxic metabolites in cultures. Transcriptomic analysis showed that Fe-MIL-101 enhanced the expression of genes related to nitro and chlorinated contaminants degradation. Additionally, genes encoding hydrogenases and c-type cytochromes associated with extracellular electron transfer were significantly upregulated, which may contribute to the simultaneous bioreduction of CAP both intracellularly and extracellularly. These results indicated that Fe-MIL-101 can be used as a catalyst to synergize with EAB to effectively facilitate CAP degradation, which might shed new light on the application in the in situ bioremediation of antibiotic-contaminated environments.

Abstract
The removal of environmental pollutants is important for a sustainable ecosystem and human health. Shewanella oneidensis (S. oneidensis) has diverse electron transfer pathways and can use a variety of contaminants as electron acceptors or electron donors. This paper reviews S. oneidensis's function in removing environmental pollutants, including heavy metals, inorganic non-metallic ions (INMIs), and toxic organic pollutants. S. oneidensis can mineralize o-xylene (OX), phenanthrene (PHE), and pyridine (Py) as electron donors, and also reduce azo dyes, nitro aromatic compounds (NACs), heavy metals, and iodate by extracellular electron transfer (EET). For azo dyes, NACs, Cr(VI), nitrite, nitrate, thiosulfate, and sulfite that can cross the membrane, S. oneidensis transfers electrons to intracellular reductases to catalyze their reduction. However, most organic pollutants cannot be directly degraded by S. oneidensis, but S. oneidensis can remove these pollutants by self-synthesizing catalysts or photocatalysts, constructing bio-photocatalytic systems, driving Fenton reactions, forming microbial consortia, and genetic engineering. However, the industrial-scale application of S. oneidensis is insufficient. Future research on the metabolism of S. oneidensis and interfacial reactions with other materials needs to be deepened, and large-scale reactors should be developed that can be used for practical engineering applications.

Abstract
The production of biogenic palladium nanoparticles (bio-Pd NPs) is widely studied due to their high catalytic activity, which depends on the size of nanoparticles (NPs). Smaller NPs (here defined as <100 nm) are more efficient due to their higher surface/volume ratio. In this work, inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), flow cytometry (FCM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were combined to obtain insight into the formation of these bio-Pd NPs. The precipitation of bio-Pd NPs was evaluated on a cell-per-cell basis using single-cell ICP-MS (SC-ICP-MS) combined with TEM images to assess how homogenously the particles were distributed over the cells. The results provided by SC-ICP-MS were consistent with those provided by "bulk" ICP-MS analysis and FCM. It was observed that heterogeneity in the distribution of palladium over an entire cell population is strongly dependent on the Pd2+ concentration, biomass and partial H2 pressure. The latter three parameters affected the particle size, ranging from 15.6 to 560 nm, and exerted a significant impact on the production of the bio-Pd NPs. The TEM combined with SC-ICP-MS revealed that the mass distribution for bacteria with high Pd content (144 fg Pd cell-1 ) indicated the presence of a large number of very small NPs (D50 = 15.6 nm). These results were obtained at high cell density (1 × 105 ± 3 × 104 cells μl-1 ) and H2 partial pressure (180 ml H2 ). In contrast, very large particles (D50 = 560 nm) were observed at low cell density (3 × 104 ± 10 × 102 cells μl-1 ) and H2 partial pressure (10-100 ml H2 ). The influence of the H2 partial pressure on the nanoparticle size and the possibility of size-tuned nanoparticles are presented.

Abstract
New nanostructures often reflect new and exciting properties. Here, we present an two-dimensional, hitherto unreported PdO square network with lateral dimensions up to hundreds of nanometers growing on reduced graphene oxide (rGO), forming a hybrid nanofilm. An intermediate state of dissolved Pd(0) in the bacterium S. oneidensis MR-1 is pivotal in the biosynthesis and inspires an abiotic synthesis. The PdO network shows a lattice spacing of 0.5 nm and a thickness of 1.8 nm on both sides of an rGO layer and is proposed to be cubic or tetragonal crystal, as confirmed by structural simulations. A 2D silver oxide analog with a similar structure is also obtained using an analogous abiotic synthesis. Our study thus opens a simple route to a whole new class of 2D metal oxides on rGO as promising candidates for graphene superlattices with unexplored properties and potential applications for example in electronics, sensing, and energy conversion.

Abstract
Bimetallic nanoparticle catalysts have attracted considerable attention due to their unique chemical and physical properties. The ability of metal-reducing bacteria to produce highly catalytically active monometallic nanoparticles is well known; however, the properties and catalytic activity of bimetallic nanoparticles synthesized with these organisms is not well understood. Here, we report the one-pot biosynthesis of Pd/Ag (bio-Pd/Ag) and Pd/Au (bio-Pd/Au) nanoparticles using the metal-reducing bacterium, Shewanella oneidensis, under mild conditions. Energy dispersive X-ray analyses performed using scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) revealed the presence of both metals (Pd/Ag or Pd/Au) in the biosynthesized nanoparticles. X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy (XANES) suggested a significant contribution from Pd(0) and Pd(II) in both bio-Pd/Ag and bio-Pd/Au, with Ag and Au existing predominately as their metallic forms. Extended X-ray absorption fine-structure spectroscopy (EXAFS) supported the presence of multiple Pd species in bio-Pd/Ag and bio-Pd/Au, as inferred from Pd-Pd, Pd-O and Pd-S shells. Both bio-Pd/Ag and bio-Pd/Au demonstrated greatly enhanced catalytic activity towards Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling compared to a monometallic Pd catalyst, with bio-Pd/Ag significantly outperforming the others. The catalysts were very versatile, tolerating a wide range of substituents. This work demonstrates a green synthesis method for novel bimetallic nanoparticles that display significantly enhanced catalytic activity compared to their monometallic counterparts.

Abstract
The exploitation of microorganisms for the fabrication of nanoparticles (NPs) has garnered considerable research interest globally. The microbiological transformation of metals and metal salts into respective NPs can be achieved under environmentally benign conditions, offering a more sustainable alternative to chemical synthesis methods. Species of the metal-reducing bacterial genus Shewanella are able to couple the oxidation of various electron donors, including lactate, pyruvate, and hydrogen, to the reduction of a wide range of metal species, resulting in biomineralization of a multitude of metal NPs. Single-metal-based NPs as well as composite materials with properties equivalent or even superior to physically and chemically produced NPs have been synthesized by a number of Shewanella species. A mechanistic understanding of electron transfer-mediated bioreduction of metals into respective NPs by Shewanella is crucial in maximizing NP yields and directing the synthesis to produce fine-tuned NPs with tailored properties. In addition, thorough investigations into the influence of process parameters controlling the biosynthesis is another focal point for optimizing the process of NP generation. Synthesis of metal-based NPs using Shewanella species offers a low-cost, eco-friendly alternative to current physiochemical methods. This article aims to shed light on the contribution of Shewanella as a model organism in the biosynthesis of a variety of NPs and critically reviews the current state of knowledge on factors controlling their synthesis, characterization, potential applications in different sectors, and future prospects.

Abstract
Due to the excellent hydrogen affinity and high conductivity, palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) were considered as a potential strategy to regulate bacterial electron transfer and energy metabolism. Herein, Citrobacter freundii JH, capable of in-situ biosynthesizing Pd(0) NPs, was employed to promote Pt(IV) reduction. The results showed that the Pt(IV) reduction to Pt(II) was accomplished mainly via the flavins-mediated extracellular electron transfer (EET) process, while Pt(II) reduction to Pt(0) was limit step, and proceeded via two intracellular respiratory chains, including FDH/Hases-based short chain (S-chain) and typical CoQ-involved long respiratory chain (L-chain). Noteworthily, the incorporation of Pd(0) NPs mainly diverted the electrons to S-chain (as high as 71.7%-73.4%) by improving the hydrogenases (Hases) activity. Furthermore, Pd(0) NPs could stimulate the secreting of flavins and the combination between flavins and cytochrome c (c-Cyt), which converted electron transfer manner of L-chain. Additionally, Pd(0) NPs might also act as alternative proton channels to improve the energy metabolism. These findings provided significant insights into the promotion by Pd(0) NPs in terms of electron generation, electron consumption and proton translocation.

Pyruvate accelerates palladium reduction by regulating catabolism and electron transfer pathway in Shewanella oneidensis. Appl Environ Microbiol 2021; 87:AEM.02716-20.

Abstract
Shewanella oneidensis is a model strain of the electrochemical active bacteria (EAB) because of its strong capability of extracellular electron transfer (EET) and genetic tractability. In this study, we investigated the effect of carbon sources on EET in S. oneidensis by using reduction of palladium ions (Pd(II)) as a model and found that pyruvate greatly accelerated the Pd(II) reduction compared with lactate by resting cells. Both Mtr pathway and hydrogenases played a role in Pd(II) reduction when pyruvate was used as a carbon source. Furthermore, in comparison with lactate-feeding S. oneidensis, the transcriptional levels of formate dehydrogenases involving in pyruvate catabolism, Mtr pathway, and hydrogenases in pyruvate-feeding S. oneidensis were up-regulated. Mechanistically, the enhancement of electron generation from pyruvate catabolism and electron transfer to Pd(II) explains the pyruvate effect on Pd(II) reduction. Interestingly, a 2-h time window is required for pyruvate to regulate transcription of these genes and profoundly improve Pd(II) reduction capability, suggesting a hierarchical regulation for pyruvate sensing and response in S. oneidensis IMPORTANCE The unique respiration of EET is crucial for the biogeochemical cycling of metal elements and diverse applications of EAB. Although a carbon source is a determinant factor of bacterial metabolism, the research into the regulation of carbon source on EET is rare. In this work, we reported the pyruvate-specific regulation and improvement of EET in S. oneidensis and revealed the underlying mechanism, which suggests potential targets to engineer and improve the EET efficiency of this bacterium. This study sheds light on the regulatory role of carbon sources in anaerobic respiration in EAB, providing a way to regulate EET for diverse applications from a novel perspective.

Insights into palladium nanoparticles produced by Shewanella oneidensis MR-1: Roles of NADH dehydrogenases and hydrogenases. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2020; 191:110196. [PMID: 32919957 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2020.110196] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2020] [Revised: 08/22/2020] [Accepted: 09/06/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
Biologically synthesized palladium nanoparticles (bio-Pd) have attracted considerable interest as promising green catalysts for environmental remediation. However, the mechanisms by which microorganisms produce bio-Pd remain unclear. In the present study, we investigated the roles of Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 and its NADH dehydrogenases and hydrogenases (HydA and HyaB) in bio-Pd production using formate as the electron donor. The roles of NADH dehydrogenases and hydrogenases were studied by inhibiting NADH dehydrogenases and using hydrogenase mutants (ΔhydA, ΔhyaB, and ΔhydAΔhyaB), respectively. The results showed ~97% reduction of palladium by S. oneidensis MR-1 after 24 h using 250 μM palladium and 500 μM formate. Electron microscopy images showed the presence of bio-Pd on both the outer and cytoplasmic membranes of S. oneidensis MR-1. However, the inhibition of NADH dehydrogenases in S. oneidensis MR-1 resulted in only ~61% reduction of palladium after 24 h, and bio-Pd were not found on the outer membrane. The mutants lacking one or two hydrogenases removed 91-96% of palladium ions after 24 h and showed more cytoplasmic bio-Pd but less periplasmic bio-Pd. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to demonstrate the role of NADH dehydrogenases of S. oneidensis MR-1 in the formation of bio-Pd on the outer membrane. It also demonstrates that the hydrogenases (especially HyaB) of S. oneidensis MR-1 contribute to the formation of bio-Pd in the periplasmic space. This study provides mechanistic insights into the production of biogenic metal nanoparticles towards their possible use in industrial and environmental applications.

Abstract
Electrochemically active biofilms are capable of exchanging electrons with solid electron acceptors and have many energy and environmental applications such as bioelectricity generation and environmental remediation. The performance of electrochemically active biofilms is usually dependent on c-type cytochromes, while biofilm development is controlled by a signal cascade mediated by the intracellular secondary messenger bis-(3'-5') cyclic dimeric guanosine monophosphate (c-di-GMP). However, it is unclear whether there are any links between the c-di-GMP regulatory system and the expression of c-type cytochromes. In this study, we constructed a S. oneidensis MR-1 strain with a higher cytoplasmic c-di-GMP level by constitutively expressing a c-di-GMP synthase and it exhibited expected c-di-GMP-influenced traits, such as lowered motility and increased biofilm formation. Compared to MR-1 wild-type strain, the high c-di-GMP strain had a higher Fe(III) reduction rate (21.58 vs 11.88 pM of Fe(III)/h cell) and greater expression of genes that code for the proteins involved in the Mtr pathway, including CymA, MtrA, MtrB, MtrC and OmcA. Furthermore, single-cell Raman microspectroscopy (SCRM) revealed a great increase of c-type cytochromes in the high c-di-GMP strain as compared to MR-1 wild-type strain. Our results reveal for the first time that the c-di-GMP regulation system indirectly or directly positively regulates the expression of cytochromes involved in the extracellular electron transport (EET) in S. oneidensis, which would help to understand the regulatory mechanism of c-di-GMP on electricity production in bacteria.

Abstract
Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 are facultative aerobic electroactive bacteria with an appealing potential for sustainable energy production and bioremediation. They gather around air sources, forming aerotactic bands and biofilms. Here, we experimentally follow the evolution of the band around an air bubble, and we find good agreement with the numerical solutions of the pertinent transport equations. Video microscopy reveals a transition between motile and non-motile MR-1 upon oxygen depletion, preventing further development of the biofilm. We discover that MR-1 can alternate between longitudinal fast and sideways slow swimming. The resulting bimodal velocity distributions change in response to different oxygen concentrations and gradients, supporting the biological functions of aerotaxis and confinement.

Biomineralization of Cu 2S Nanoparticles by Geobacter sulfurreducens. Appl Environ Microbiol 2020; 86:AEM.00967-20.

Abstract
Dissimilatory metal-reducing bacteria are ubiquitous in soils and aquifers and are known to utilize a wide range of metals as terminal electron acceptors. These transformations play an important role in the biogeochemical cycling of metals in pristine and contaminated environments and can be harnessed for bioremediation and metal bioprocessing purposes. However, relatively little is known about their interactions with Cu. As a trace element that becomes toxic in excess, Cu can adversely affect soil biota and fertility. In addition, biomineralization of Cu nanoparticles has been reported to enhance the mobilization of other toxic metals. Here, we demonstrate that when supplied with acetate under anoxic conditions, the model metal-reducing bacterium Geobacter sulfurreducens can transform soluble Cu(II) to Cu2S nanoparticles. This study provides new insights into Cu biomineralization by microorganisms and suggests that contaminant mobilization enhanced by Cu biomineralization could be facilitated by Geobacter species and related organisms. Biomineralization of Cu has been shown to control contaminant dynamics and transport in soils. However, very little is known about the role that subsurface microorganisms may play in the biogeochemical cycling of Cu. In this study, we investigate the bioreduction of Cu(II) by the subsurface metal-reducing bacterium Geobacter sulfurreducens. Rapid removal of Cu from solution was observed in cell suspensions of G. sulfurreducens when Cu(II) was supplied, while transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analyses showed the formation of electron-dense nanoparticles associated with the cell surface. Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) point analysis and EDX spectrum image maps revealed that the nanoparticles are rich in both Cu and S. This finding was confirmed by X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) analyses, which identified the nanoparticles as Cu2S. Biomineralization of CuxS nanoparticles in soils has been reported to enhance the colloidal transport of a number of contaminants, including Pb, Cd, and Hg. However, formation of these CuxS nanoparticles has only been observed under sulfate-reducing conditions and could not be repeated using isolates of implicated organisms. As G. sulfurreducens is unable to respire sulfate, and no reducible sulfur was supplied to the cells, these data suggest a novel mechanism for the biomineralization of Cu2S under anoxic conditions. The implications of these findings for the biogeochemical cycling of Cu and other metals as well as the green production of Cu catalysts are discussed.

Abstract
Biosynthesized noble metal nanoparticles (NPs) as promising green catalysts for electrochemical application has invited a lot of attention. However, effective electron transfer between biosynthesized NPs and electrode remains a challenge due to the uncontrollable and poor conductive property of cell substrates. In this study, graphene oxide (GO) was introduced into a bio-Pd synthesis process governed by Shewanella oneidensis MR-1, which was demonstrated to be simultaneously reduced with Pd(II) and transformed to reduced GO (rGO), resulting in the formation of a Pd-cells-rGO composite. Compared to the control without rGO (Pd-cells), the electrochemical conductivity of Pd-cells-rGO composite increased from almost zero to 196 μS cm-1, indicating the rGO facilities the electron transport across the composite. Electrochemical characterizations revealed the electrochemical active surface area (ECSA) of Pd in Pd-cells-rGO was enlarged by increasing the amount of rGO in the composite, clearly indicating that the conductive network created by rGO enable the Pd NPs receive electrons from electrode and become electrochemical active. A considerable enhancement of electrocatalytic activity was further confirmed for Pd-cells-rGO as indicated by 36.7- and 17.2-fold increase (Pd-cells-rGO with Pd/GO ratio of 5/1 vs Pd-cells) of steady state current density toward hydrogen evolution and nitrobenzene reduction at -0.7 V and -0.55 V vs Ag/AgCl, respectively. We also compared the electrocatalytic performance with MWCNTs hybrids Pd-cells-CNTs. It was found that the association of Pd, cells and rGO creates an interactive and synergistic environment to allow higher conductivity and catalytic activity under the same amount of carbon nanomaterial. The strategy developed in this work activates a highly reactive NPs and proposed a designable protocol for enhancing electrocatalytic activity of biocatalysts.

Abstract
In this study, we report an interdisciplinary and novel strategy toward biofilm engineering for the development of a biofilm-templated heteroatom-doped catalytic system through bioreduction and biofilm matrix-facilitated immobilization of the in situ-formed catalytic nanoparticles followed by controlled pyrolysis. We showed that (i) even under room temperature and bulk aerobic conditions, Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 biofilms reduced Pd(II) to form Pd(0) nanocrystals (∼10 to 20 nm) that were immobilized in the biofilm matrix and in cellular membranes, (ii) the MR-1 biofilms with the immobilized Pd(0) nanocrystals exhibited nanocatalytic activity, (iii) exposure to Pd(II) greatly increased the rate of cell detachment from the biofilm and posed a risk of biofilm dispersal, (iv) controlled pyrolysis (carbonization) of the biofilm led to the formation of a stable heteroatom-doped carbon-palladium (C-Pd) nanocomposite catalyst, and (v) the biofilm-templated C-Pd nanocomposite catalyst exhibited a high Cr(VI) reduction activity and maintained a high reduction rate over multiple catalytic cycles. Considering that bacteria are capable of synthesizing a wide range of metal and metalloid nanoparticles, the biofilm-templated approach for the fabrication of the catalytic C-Pd nanocomposite we have demonstrated here should prove to be widely applicable for the production of different nanocomposites that are of importance to various environmental applications.

Abstract
Bimetallic nanoparticles (NPs) often exhibit improved catalytic performance due to the electronic and spatial structure changes. Herein, a novel green biosynthesis method for Pd-Pt alloy NPs using Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 was proposed. The morphology, size and crystal structure of Pd-Pt alloy NPs were studied by a suite of characterization techniques. Results showed Pd-Pt alloy NPs were successfully synthesized inside and outside the cell. The biosynthesized Pd-Pt alloy NPs were polycrystalline and face-centered-cubic structure with the particle size ranged from 3-40 nm. Furthermore, the catalytic experiment demonstrated that the Pd-Pt alloy NPs exhibited the highest performance for the catalytic reduction of nitrophenol and azo dyes compared with the as-synthesized Pd and Pt monometallic NPs. This enlarged catalytic activity resulted from the synergistic effect of Pd and Pt element. Thereby, this paper provided a simple biosynthesis method for producing bimetallic alloy nanocatalyst with superior activity for contaminant degradation.

Abstract
The relative scarcity of well-defined genetic and metabolic linkages to material properties impedes biological production of inorganic materials. The physiology of electroactive bacteria is intimately tied to inorganic transformations, which makes genetically tractable and well-studied electrogens, such as Shewanella oneidensis, attractive hosts for material synthesis. Notably, this species is capable of reducing a variety of transition-metal ions into functional nanoparticles, but exact mechanisms of nanoparticle biosynthesis remain ill-defined. We report two key factors of extracellular electron transfer by S. oneidensis, the outer membrane cytochrome, MtrC, and soluble redox shuttles (flavins), that affect Pd nanoparticle formation. Changes in the expression and availability of these electron transfer components drastically modulated particle synthesis rate and phenotype, including their structure and cellular localization. These relationships may serve as the basis for biologically tailoring Pd nanoparticle catalysts and could potentially be used to direct the biogenesis of other metal nanomaterials.

Abstract
Copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) and palladium nanoparticles (PdNPs) have attracted wide attention owing to their multifaceted utility in catalysis, sensors, and biomedical applications. Their therapeutic spectrum includes anticancer, antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, antidiabetic, antioxidant potential which rationalizes the exploration of diverse physical, chemical, and biological routes for fabrication. In this article, we focused on bacterium-assisted design of nanostructured copper and palladium for applications in therapy against multidrug-resistant pathogens, dehalogenation of diatrizoate, Heck coupling of iodobenzene, polymer electric membrane fuel cell, metal recovery, and electronic waste management. Further, hypothesis behind microbial synthesis of PdNPs in E. coli containing [NiFe] hydrogenase Hyd-1 is discussed. Similarly, detailed mechanism of synthesis and stabilization in Cyanobacteria is also documented. Both CuNPs and PdNPs act as potent chemotherapeutic agents that can further be enhanced by conjugation with drugs and/or fluorophores and ligands for simultaneous diagnosis and targeted drug delivery to the cancer site or infection. These bacteriogenic nanoparticles can be used in sensors and pollution control.

Abstract
Copper nanoparticles (Cu-NPs) have a wide range of applications as heterogeneous catalysts. In this study, a novel green biosynthesis route for producing Cu-NPs using the metal-reducing bacterium, Shewanella oneidensis is demonstrated. Thin section transmission electron microscopy shows that the Cu-NPs are predominantly intracellular and present in a typical size range of 20-40 nm. Serial block-face scanning electron microscopy demonstrates the Cu-NPs are well-dispersed across the 3D structure of the cells. X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy and extended X-ray absorption fine-structure spectroscopy analysis show the nanoparticles are Cu(0), however, atomic resolution images and electron energy loss spectroscopy suggest partial oxidation of the surface layer to Cu2 O upon exposure to air. The catalytic activity of the Cu-NPs is demonstrated in an archetypal "click chemistry" reaction, generating good yields during azide-alkyne cycloadditions, most likely catalyzed by the Cu(I) surface layer of the nanoparticles. Furthermore, cytochrome deletion mutants suggest a novel metal reduction system is involved in enzymatic Cu(II) reduction and Cu-NP synthesis, which is not dependent on the Mtr pathway commonly used to reduce other high oxidation state metals in this bacterium. This work demonstrates a novel, simple, green biosynthesis method for producing efficient copper nanoparticle catalysts.

Abstract
The widespread use of platinum in high-tech and catalytic applications has led to the production of diverse Pt loaded wastewaters. Effective recovery strategies are needed for the treatment of low concentrated waste streams to prevent pollution and to stimulate recovery of this precious resource. The biological recovery of five common environmental Pt-complexes was studied under acidic conditions; the chloro-complexes PtCl42- and PtCl62-, the amine-complex Pt(NH3)4Cl2 and the pharmaceutical complexes cisplatin and carboplatin. Five bacterial species were screened on their platinum recovery potential; the Gram-negative species Shewanella oneidensis MR-1, Cupriavidus metallidurans CH34, Geobacter metallireducens, and Pseudomonas stutzeri, and the Gram-positive species Bacillus toyonensis. Overall, PtCl42- and PtCl62- were completely recovered by all bacterial species while only S. oneidensis and C. metallidurans were able to recover cisplatin quantitatively (99%), all in the presence of H2 as electron donor at pH 2. Carboplatin was only partly recovered (max. 25% at pH 7), whereas no recovery was observed in the case of the Pt-tetraamine complex. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed the presence of both intra- and extracellular platinum particles. Flow cytometry based microbial viability assessment demonstrated the decrease in number of intact bacterial cells during platinum reduction and indicated C. metallidurans to be the most resistant species. This study showed the effective and complete biological recovery of three common Pt-complexes, and estimated the fate and transport of the Pt-complexes in wastewater treatment plants and the natural environment.

Abstract
The increased development of green low-carbon energy technologies that require platinum group metals (PGMs) and rare earth elements (REEs), together with the geopolitical challenges to sourcing these metals, has spawned major governmental and industrial efforts to rectify current supply insecurities. As a result of the increasing critical importance of PGMs and REEs, environmentally sustainable approaches to recover these metals from primary ores and secondary streams are needed. In this review, we define the sources and waste streams from which PGMs and REEs can potentially be sustainably recovered using microorganisms, and discuss the metal-microbe interactions most likely to form the basis of different environmentally friendly recovery processes. Finally, we highlight the research needed to address challenges to applying the necessary microbiology for metal recovery given the physical and chemical complexities of specific streams.
