Molecular genetics of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans
Microbiological Reviews, 1994 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 ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2011 Production of sulfur globules during sulfide or thiosulfate oxidation is a characteristic feature of some sulfur bacteria. Although their generation has been reported in Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, its mechanism of formation and deposition, as well ...

Plasmid and transposon transfer to Thiobacillus ferrooxidans [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1994 The broad-host-range IncP plasmids RP4, R68.45, RP1::Tn501, and pUB307 were transferred to acidophilic, obligately chemolithotrophic Thiobacillus ferrooxidans from Escherichia coli by conjugation. A genetic marker of kanamycin resistance was expressed in T. ferrooxidans. Plasmid RP4 was transferred back to E. coli from T. ferrooxidans.

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT The cathode materials from spent batteries are expected to become a resource stream rich in critical metals, drawing increasing attention to the disposal and recycling of spent lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs). However, due to current technological limitations, the recycling efficiency and environmental sustainability of LIBs still face ...

Energetics and Ecological Implications of Bacterial Electron Transport Chains
Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.This review synthesises vast knowledge on bacterial electron transport chains with an emphasis on the energetics and underlying design principles. It further explores the varied respiratory chain compositions across different bacterial species using diverse energy sources to reveal potential implications of energy metabolism in supporting bacterial ...

Thiobacillus ferrooxidans, a facultative hydrogen oxidizer [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1990 The type strain (ATCC 23270) and two other strains of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans were able to grow by hydrogen oxidation, a feature not recognized before. When cultivated on H2, a hydrogenase was induced and the strains were less extremely acidophilic than during growth on sulfidic ores. Cells of T.
