Life in acid: pH homeostasis in acidophiles

open access: yesTrends in Microbiology, 2007
Microorganisms that have a pH optimum for growth of less than pH 3 are termed "acidophiles". To grow at low pH, acidophiles must maintain a pH gradient of several pH units across the cellular membrane while producing ATP by the influx of protons through ...

The Potential Roles of Free and Attached Microbial Community in Decreasing Cadmium Level from Cadmium-Contaminated Soils by Mixotrophic Acidophiles of Different Scale-Up Cultivation Stages

open access: yesMinerals (Basel, Switzerland), 2023
In this study, cadmium (Cd)-contaminated soils were bioremediated using the mixotrophic acidophiles in different scale-up cultivation stages. The free and attached bacterial and fungal diversities and community structures, and their effects on soil Cd ...

The resilience and versatility of acidophiles that contribute to the bio‐assisted extraction of metals from mineral sulphides [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Technology (United Kingdom), 2010
In this paper, a brief outline is presented on acidic ferric ion oxidation of mineral sulphides for the extraction of metals in both stirred tank reactors for mineral concentrates and heaps for low-grade ores.

Taxonomy of the Acidophilic Thiobacilli

Journal of General Microbiology, 1966
SUMMARY: Numerical analysis was applied to the taxonomy of acidophilic thiobacilli; 22 strains were examined, including authentic cultures and new isolates. Two sets of tests were made with different substrates, sulphur and thiosulphate. The results from both sets of tests indicated two distinct groups corresponding to Thiobacillus thio-oxidans and T ...

Biodiversity of acidophilic prokaryotes

2001
Publisher Summary This chapter reviews recent literature concerning the biology of acidophilic prokaryotes (bacteria and archaea) specifically relating to acidophilic taxonomy and phylogeny. Acidophilic microorganisms are one group of extremophiles that is becoming increasingly important, both ecologically and economically.

Immunocytochemistry of Acidophil

Archives of Neurology, 1969
IN A REVIEW of the ultrastructual organization of human acidophil and chromophobe pituitary adenomas, the acidophils were from abundantly to sparsely supplied with secretory granules measuring 300 to 500 mμ, and the secretory granules in chromophobe adenomas were of two sizes, the average diameter being about 100 mμ in some cells and approximately 300 ...

Acidophiles in Biomining

2000
Acidophilic microorganisms that oxidize mineral sulfides are of obvious biogeochemical significance in their natural habitats and are increasingly being utilized commercially in mineral sulfide processing. However, few studies have focused on their taxonomy and phylogeny, hence there are unresolved questions in these areas.
