Production of a Biofilm on an Electrode for a Biocell, Electrode and Biocell Obtained
First Claim
1. A process for producing a biofilm on the surface of an electrode in a liquid medium containing bacteria and a substrate allowing the bacteria to grow, in which a system of electrodes is used that consists of two electrodes which are connected to a DC current source, these two electrodes are placed in the medium and a predetermined constant potential difference is applied between the electrodes, thereby forming biofilms on the surface of the electrodes.

Abstract
A method for the production of a biofilm at the surface of an electrode in a liquid medium containing bacteria and a substrate for growth of the bacteria, in which a system of electrodes constituted of two electrodes, which are connected to a direct electric current source, is used, these two electrodes are placed in the medium and a predetermined and constant potential difference is applied between the electrodes, by virtue of which biofilms form at the surface of the electrodes. Resulting electrodes and biocells.
