Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Hydrogen can serve as an electron donor for chemolithotrophic acidophiles, especially in the deep terrestrial subsurface and geothermal ecosystems. Nevertheless, the current knowledge of hydrogen utilization by mesophilic acidophiles is minimal.

Method Development for Electrotransformation of Acidithiobacillus caldus
Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2010 Acidithiobacillus caldus is an acidophilic, chemoautotrophic bacterium, plays important role in bioleaching. Gene transformation into A. caldus is difficult and only the conjugation method was reported successful, which method was relatively sophisticated. In this research, electrotransformation of A.

Bioleaching of low grade uranium ore containing pyrite using A. ferrooxidans and A. thiooxidans [PDF]
, 2012 A process of uranium extraction from ore containing 3.1 % pyrite by bacterial leaching was investigated in shaken flasks during 90 days. The highest uranium recovery amounting to 85.1 % was obtained using binary mixture of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans ...

Current understanding of electroautotrophy and its relevance in astrobiology‐related research
mLife, Volume 4, Issue 5, Page 473-493, October 2025.Abstract Electroautotrophy—the use of extracellular electrons as the primary energy source for autotrophic metabolism—remains understudied compared to photoautotrophy and chemoautotrophy. Its occurrence in deep‐earth and deep‐sea environments suggests profound implications for astrobiology, yet electroautotrophic microorganisms remain poorly explored ...

An Unexpected Facet of Extremophiles: Their Aesthetic Potential in Artistic Expression
Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 18, Issue 10, October 2025.In an era marked by environmental challenges and the proliferation of misinformation, the fusion of art and science is a strategy to promote public understanding and appreciation of complex scientific phenomena. We illustrate how the use of extremophiles offers novel avenues for artistic exploration and emphasise the benefits of such interdisciplinary ...

Biofertilzers with natural phosphate, sulphur and Acidithiobacillus in a siol with low available-P
Scientia Agricola, 2003 The production of mineral fertilizers is a expensive process, since it requires high energy consumption, and cannot be produced by small farmers. Laboratory assays were conducted to produce P-biofertilizers from natural phosphate (B5, B10, B15, B20 ...
