= Biophotovoltaic cell
A device that collects electrical current from photosynthetic <organisms> or their products. <Electron transfer> across cellular envelopes and to an <electrode> links biological reducing power with an external circuit; <light> absorption alone does not establish that current reaches the <electrode>.<Order-of-magnitude enhancement in photocurrent generation of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 by outer membrane deprivation by Shoko Kusama and others>[Photocurrent comparison]{ref}
