MICROORGANISMS AND SOLAR ENERGY
Some microorganisms, in dependence of the cultivation conditions, are able to produce colored molecules known as microbe pigments, among which the most known are carotenoids. These molecules, known for their high antioxidant activity, are able to interact with sunlight by generating an electric current. The production of these pigments from selected bacterial cultures is then exploited for the development of third-generation solar cells known as Dye Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSCs). https://www.ipcf.cnr.it/research/solar-energy/
