Growth kinetics of attached iron-oxidizing bacteria.
A model of growth and substrate utilization for ferrous-iron-oxidizing bacteria attached to the disks of a rotating biological contactor was developed and tested. The model describes attached bacterial growth as a saturation function in which the rate of substrate utilization is determined by a maximum substrate oxidation rate constant (P), a half-saturation constant (K(s)), and the concentrati...
متن کاملElectron uptake by iron-oxidizing phototrophic bacteria.
Oxidation-reduction reactions underlie energy generation in nearly all life forms. Although most organisms use soluble oxidants and reductants, some microbes can access solid-phase materials as electron-acceptors or -donors via extracellular electron transfer. Many studies have focused on the reduction of solid-phase oxidants. Far less is known about electron uptake via microbial extracellular ...
متن کاملATP requirements for growth and maintenance of iron-oxidizing bacteria
A simple metabolic model of ferrous oxidizing bacteria based on biochemically structured balances of ATP and NAD(P)H is proposed in order to calculate maximum yield and maintenance on ATP. Similar values of growth yield and maintenance were obtained using data of ferrous iron and/or oxygen consumption in Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans cultures on iron under different conditions. When pyrite was...
متن کاملIron assimilation and utilization in anaerobic ammonium oxidizing bacteria.
The most abundant transition metal in biological systems is iron. It is incorporated into protein cofactors and serves either catalytic, redox or regulatory purposes. Anaerobic ammonium oxidizing (anammox) bacteria rely heavily on iron-containing proteins - especially cytochromes - for their energy conservation, which occurs within a unique organelle, the anammoxosome. Both their anaerobic life...
متن کاملThermophilic iron-oxidizing bacteria found in copper leaching dumps.
Rod-shaped bacteria capable of oxidizing ferrous iron at 55 degrees C were cultured from samples of a copper mine leach dump. Yeast extract or cysteine was required by these Thiobacillus-like bacteria for growth, using ferrous iron as an energy source.
