Abstract

Conjugated oligoelectrolytes integrated in Escherichia coli have been proposed to act as “molecular wires”, inducing extracellular electron transfer. This is monitored through reduction of HAuCl₄ to form gold nanoparticles. In contrast to direct electron transfer, the reduction mechanism was traced to the release of electroactive cytosolic components during oligoelectrolyte incorporation.
