Multiple Sulfur Isotope Fractionations in Biological Systems: a Case Study with Sulfate Reducers and Sulfur Disproportionators
Multiple sulfur isotope measurements of sulfur compounds associated with dissimilatory sulfate reduction, elemental sulfur disproportionation and sulfite disproportionation indicate that different types of metabolic processes impart different multiple isotope signatures. An established network for sulfate reduction was used previously to explain the multiple isotope variability. Here, we revisi...
متن کاملDiversity of sulfur isotope fractionations by sulfate-reducing prokaryotes.
Batch culture experiments were performed with 32 different sulfate-reducing prokaryotes to explore the diversity in sulfur isotope fractionation during dissimilatory sulfate reduction by pure cultures. The selected strains reflect the phylogenetic and physiologic diversity of presently known sulfate reducers and cover a broad range of natural marine and freshwater habitats. Experimental conditi...

متن کاملPhysiology of Multiple Sulfur Isotope Fractionation during Microbial Sulfate Reduction
Microbial sulfate reduction (MSR) utilizes sulfate as an electron acceptor and produces sulfide that is depleted in heavy isotopes of sulfur relative to starting sulfate. The fractionation of S-isotopes is commonly used to trace the biogeochemical cycling of sulfur in nature, but a mechanistic understanding of factors that control the range of isotope fractionation is still lacking. This thesis...
