متن کاملMicrobial Oxidation of Fe2+ and Pyrite Exposed to Flux of Micromolar H2O2 in Acidic Media
At an initial pH of 2, while abiotic oxidation of aqueous Fe(2+) was enhanced by a flux of H2O2 at micromolar concentrations, bio-oxidation of aqueous Fe(2+) could be impeded due to oxidative stress/damage in Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans caused by Fenton reaction-derived hydroxyl radical, particularly when the molar ratio of Fe(2+) to H2O2 was low. When pyrite cubes were intermittently expose...
متن کاملMicrobial oxidation of pyrite: Experiments using microorganisms from an extreme acidic environment
Surface colonization and microbial dissolution of pyrite were studied in the laboratory and by in situ surface colonization experiments conducted at Iron Mountain, California. Laboratory experiments involved organisms obtained from Iron Mountain and cultured in pH ,1.0, 42 8C solutions designed to enrich for chemolithotrophic species present at acidgenerating sites. Planktonic and sessile micro...
متن کاملRates and potential mechanism of anaerobic nitrate-dependent microbial pyrite oxidation.
Pyrite (FeS2) is a major iron- and sulfur-containing mineral phase in the environment. Oxidation of pyrite by aerobic micro-organisms has been well investigated. However, the reactivity of pyrite under anoxic conditions is still an open question. In the present paper, we summarize field and laboratory data on this chemolithotrophic respiration process with nitrate as terminal electron acceptor....
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of novel iron-oxidizing bacteria that grow at circumneutral pH.
A gel-stabilized gradient method that employed opposing gradients of Fe2+ and O2 was used to isolate and characterize two new Fe-oxidizing bacteria from a neutral pH, Fe(2+)-containing groundwater in Michigan. Two separate enrichment cultures were obtained, and in each the cells grew in a distinct, rust-colored band in the gel at the oxic-anoxic interface. The cells were tightly associated with...
