Conductive Materials in Microbial Chain Elongation for Medium-Chain Fatty Acids Biosynthesis: A Critical Review of Mechanisms and Metabolic Regulation
Microbial chain elongation, which uses anaerobic fermentation to produce high-value medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs), is a promising strategy for resource sustainability, yet its efficacy is limited by poor extracellular electron transfer and thermodynamic imbalances in chain elongation (CE) microbiomes.
