Molecular genetics of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans.
Thiobacillus ferrooxidans is a gram-negative, highly acidophilic (pH 1.5 to 2.0), autotrophic bacterium that obtains its energy through the oxidation of ferrous iron or reduced inorganic sulfur compounds. It is usually dominant in the mixed bacterial populations that are used industrially for the extraction of metals such as copper and uranium from their ores. More recently, these bacterial con...
متن کاملAnaerobic Growth of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans.
The obligately autotrophic acidophile Thiobacillus ferrooxidans was grown on elemental sulfur in anaerobic batch cultures, using ferric iron as an electron acceptor. During anaerobic growth, ferric iron present in the growth media was quantitatively reduced to ferrous iron. The doubling time in anaerobic cultures was approximately 24 h. Anaerobic growth did not occur in the absence of elemental...
متن کاملLaser-guided pattern writing through Thiobacillus ferrooxidans metabolite
Most microstructures are fabricated by photolithography, which needs masks to define the specific patterns, and the successive exposure, developing and etching steps. A maskless fabrication process has been developed on the other hand. The designed micro patterns are written on the specimen by laser guiding to build or repair micro structure rapidly rather than using the time-consuming mask fab...
متن کاملSelective Adhesion of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans to Pyrite.
Bacterial adhesion to mineral surfaces plays an important role not only in bacterial survival in natural ecosystems, but also in mining industry applications. Selective adhesion was investigated with Thiobacillus ferrooxidans by using four minerals, pyrite, quartz, chalcopyrite, and galena. Escherichia coli was used as a control bacterium. Contact angles were used as indicators of hydrophobicit...
متن کاملProduction and Regeneration of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans Spheroplasts.
We investigated the production and regeneration of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans spheroplasts. Regeneration frequencies of up to 90% reversion were obtained. Attempts to transform T. ferrooxidans spheroplasts with a recombinant T. ferrooxidans plasmid were unsuccessful.
