Bacterial Colonization on the Surface of Copper Sulfide Minerals Probed by Fourier Transform Infrared Micro-Spectroscopy

open access: yesCrystals, 2020
Biofilm formation is a molecular assembly process occurring at interfaces, such as in bioleaching processes. The real time monitoring of the marker bands of amide I/amide II by FTIR microspectroscopy during Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans colonization on ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Plant Growth–Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) in Biofertilization and Disease Suppression of Crops

open access: yesInternational Journal of Agronomy, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Plant growth–promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are beneficial soil bacteria that colonize the rhizosphere and enhance plant growth through direct and indirect mechanisms, including nutrient solubilization, phytohormone production, suppression of phytopathogens, and activation of plant defense mechanisms.

Biochar-induced alterations in Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans activity and its impact on Cd(II) and As(III) adsorption from acid mine drainage

open access: yesBiochar
Due to continuing mining activities, Cd(II) and As(III) contamination in acid mine drainage (AMD) has become a major environmental challenge. Currently, there is increasing focus on the use of biochar to mitigate AMD pollution.

Estudo da oxidação dos sulfetos sintéticos molibdenita (MoS2) e covelita (CuS) por Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans via respirometria celular Oxidation study of the synthetic sulfides molybdenite (MoS2) and covellite (CuS) by Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans using respirometric experiments

open access: yesQuímica Nova, 2009
This paper analyses the oxidation of covellite and molybdenite by Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans strain LR using respirometric experiments. The results showed that both sulfides were oxidized by A.

Bio-Oxidation of a Double Refractory Gold Ore and Investigation of Preg-Robbing of Gold from Thiourea Solution

open access: yesMetals, 2020
Carbonaceous sulfidic gold ores are commonly double refractory and thus require pretreatment before gold extraction. In this paper, the capacity of pre-bio-oxidation can simultaneously decompose sulfides or deactivate carbonaceous matters (CM) from a ...

The fox Operon from Rhodobacter Strain SW2 Promotes Phototrophic Fe(II) Oxidation in Rhodobacter capsulatus SB1003 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Anoxygenic photosynthesis based on Fe(II) is thought to be one of the most ancient forms of metabolism and is hypothesized to represent a transition step in the evolution of oxygenic photosynthesis.

PCR-mediated detection of acidophilic, bioleaching-associated bacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The detection of acidophilic microorganisms from mining environments by culture methods is time consuming and unreliable. Several PCR approaches were developed to amplify small-subunit rRNA sequences from the DNA of six bacterial phylotypes associated ...
