Electricity-Eating Bacteria vs. Neoplant's Toxin-Eating Neo Px

In this video, I talk about how certain bacteria can eat electricity or generate electricity by breaking down organic matter. Also how other bacteria can break down pollutants to create cleaner air in our home.

Electroboom: "Finally a worthy opponent"

[mitsunam]

"You look so bright today! Did you just eat a neon light?"
*"Yes"*

[JeffBilkins]

Obviously the neo plant needs a monthly subscription.

Gotta say, I have to be skeptical when a company is selling product and claims "this is the best!". I mean seriously, you NEED to replace the bacteria? Why does the bacteria suddenly die out? Or is out competed by other bacteria? If other bacteria out competes it is it really the best bacteria for the job? Is there fundamentally any reasonable difference between how much VOCs this plant/bacteria combo pulls out versus how many VOCs most have in their house.

You had me until you mentioned replenishing the bacteria with the same product. Not another subscription service! Surely once you've got the bacteria, you can grow your own top-up batches in a big container from samples of the original colony if needed.

We got edible electricity before GTA 6

Our PC's will be running on bacteria before GTA 6

Yes, cells remove electrons from food and use them to create energy. This process is called oxidative phosphorylation and it happens in the mitochondria of cells.
Here's what happens during oxidative phosphorylation:
1. Food
Food contains stored energy, usually in the form of sugars and fats, which are carried to cells by blood.
2. Electrons
Cells remove electrons from the food and pass them through a series of proteins in the mitochondrial inner membrane.
3. Oxygen
Electrons are then passed to oxygen gas molecules that have diffused into the mitochondria.
4. ATP
The electrons combine with protons from the surrounding solution to produce water molecules, and the cells use the electrons to make ATP, a molecule that stores energy for most living things

Even electroboom never told us that electricity can be eaten.

Waiter: So, what are you having for lunch Sir?
Me: 1 plate Electron please.(With a glass of neutron for dessert)

Yea my professor has been engineering a minimal pathway for EET with Geobacter metalireducens and sulfurreducens for many years now and I recently also started work with making mutants with Geobacter bremensis

“Is it possible to eat electricity?”

Yes, it is and I’m tired of pretending it’s not

[LucxsPodcast]

As always great video!
That being said i 'm really bothered by the Neo Px advertisement. The claims behind it looks shaky at best. I'm not an expert in the field but there are a lot of red flags for me that make me extremely skeptical..

[DubleSwipe]

This is why this is my favorite YouTube channel, action lab never ceases to amaze me

[creativecarveciteclimb]

You should try a control test with the same components of mud but without the bacteria.

[starfleetcommand]

is it possible to eat a lightning? will be this man’s next topic

[EdwardHinton-qsry]

That's a title I never thought I'd ever see.

[FundamSrijan]

"where are my electrons sir"
"I f*ing ate them"
"Youuuu whatttt"

[isaacbrewer]

This is a great technology for 3D printing! There are lots of filaments that produce harmful VOCs so I’m glad there is a natural solution!

That bucket has to be a Farr Better Premium Rocky Road bucket or this all for naught. Love your videos.
