Percent‐Level Copper Mineralisation Promoted by Copper‐Tolerant Iron‐Oxidising Bacteria in Circumneutral Mine Drainage

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 12, December 2025.
A neutrophilic Fe(II)‐oxidizing Gallionellaceae was isolated from circumneutral Cu mine drainage. It mediated Fe(III) biomineralization, resulting in pronounced Cu accumulation (up to 2 wt%) within the solid precipitates. ABSTRACT Geomicrobiology of copper (Cu) and iron (Fe) in circumneutral‐pH drainage from a Japanese Cu mine was investigated, with a ...

Current understanding of electroautotrophy and its relevance in astrobiology‐related research

open access: yesmLife, 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

open access: yesMicrobial 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 ...

Application of Acidithiobacillus Ferrooxidans in Coal Flotation

open access: yes, 2009
Bioflotation is a potential method for removing pyritic sulphur from coal. Sodium cyanide is a well-known depressant for pyrite in flotation of sulphide minerals; however, for coal this reagent is unacceptable from the environmental point of view.

Comparación del potencial oxidativo de Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, en un proceso de biodesulfurización de carbón [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This study aimed comparing the oxidative activity of two strains of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans in a desulphurization process, using a sub-bituminous coal with a high sulfur content (2.30% total sulfur: 1.06% as pyritic, 1.10% as organic and 0.14 ...

Influence Of Used Bacterial Culture On Zinc And Aluminium Bioleaching From Printed Circuit Boards

open access: yesNova Biotechnologica et Chimica, 2015
Bioleaching processes were used to solubilize metals (Cu, Ni, Zn and Al) from printed circuit boards (PCBs). In this study, a PCBs-adapted pure culture of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, pure culture of Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans and PCBs-adapted ...
