Bacteria are amongst the simplest of organisms – they are made of single cells. Their cell structure is simpler than the cells of animals, plants and fungi.

A battery that needs feeding instead of charging? This is exactly what Empa researchers have achieved with their 3D-printed, ...

Fungi from the printer Strictly speaking, the cell is not a battery ... This allows the researchers to structure the electrodes in such a way that the microorganisms can access the nutrients ...

Biodegradable battery invented by scientists in Switzerland Fungi, which is the building block of mushrooms, is the core ...

The team found that when exposed to echinocandin, the fungi enhance their survival odds by making specific changes to the structure and organization of the components in their cell walls.

The fungi feed on simple sugars, which are added to the battery cells. "You can store the fungal ... It is 3D printed to structure the electrodes in a specific way that gives the microorganisms ...
