Automated Microscopic Analysis of Metal Sulfide Colonization by Acidophilic Microorganisms. [PDF]
Appl Environ Microbiol, 2018 The presented method for the assessment of mineral colonization allows accurate relative comparisons of the microbial colonization of metal sulfide concentrate particles in a time-resolved manner. Quantitative assessment of the mineral colonization development is important for the compilation of improved mathematical models for metal ...

Electrochemical Characteristics of the Oxidation of Sulfur- and Iron-Containing Compounds by Acidophilic Microorganisms. [PDF]
Indian J Microbiol, 2022 The electrochemical features of the interactions of sulfur- and iron-containing compounds (ferrous sulfate, elemental sulfur, pyrite tailings, cysteine, sodium thiosulfate) with a model acidophilic consortium, including the genera Leptospirillum, Sulfobacillus, Acidithiobacillus, Ferroplasma, and Acidiplasma, were studied.

Electricity generation from an inorganic sulfur compound containing mining wastewater by acidophilic microorganisms. [PDF]
Res Microbiol, 2016 Sulfide mineral processing often produces large quantities of wastewaters containing acid-generating inorganic sulfur compounds. If released untreated, these wastewaters can cause catastrophic environmental damage.

Evaluation of microbial diversity of the microbial mat from the extremely acidic Lake Robule (Bor, Serbia) [PDF]
Botanica Serbica, 2017 Extremely acidic environments are frequently formed in areas impacted by mining activities, and Lake Robule is such an ecosystem. Although an extreme environment, Lake Robule is inhabited by acidophilic microorganisms. We investigated biodiversity of the
