Unveiling the Bioleaching Versatility of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans. [PDF]

Microorganisms
Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans is a Gram-negative bacterium that thrives in extreme acidic conditions. It has emerged as a key player in biomining and bioleaching technologies thanks to its unique ability to mobilize a wide spectrum of elements, such as Li, P, V, Cr, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ga, As, Mo, W, Pb, U, and its role in ferrous iron oxidation and ...

Biocompatibility Research of Magnetosomes Synthesized by <i>Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans</i>. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci
Magnetosomes are magnetic nanocrystals synthesized by bacteria that have important application value in biomedicine. Therefore, it is very important to evaluate their biocompatibility. It has been reported that the extremophilic acidophilic bacterium Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, which is aerobic, can synthesize intracellular Fe3O4 magnetosomes.

Phylogenetic heterogeneity of the species Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans [PDF]

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2003
Polyphasic genotypic analysis of 25 Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans strains isolated from ores and ore concentrates collected in different regions of the world showed considerable strain heterogeneity. Restriction patterns of the chromosomal DNA of these strains obtained by PFGE were specific for each strain.

Pyrite oxidation under initially neutral pH conditions and in the presence of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans and micromolar hydrogen peroxide [PDF]

, 2012
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) at a micromolar level played a role in the microbial surface oxidation of pyrite crystals under initially neutral pH. When the mineral-bacteria system was cyclically exposed to 50 μM H2O2, the colonization of Acidithiobacillus ...
