DESCRIPTION
Do you know how to solve energy crisis utilizing biological methods? Have you ever heard about how to construct a enzymatic biofuel cell (EBFC)? Nothing is too strange in the nature. There are many special properties of bacteria in the nature such as producing electricity, being attracted by magnet. Please read this page.
