Expression of the arsenite oxidation regulatory operon in Rhizobium sp. str. NT-26 is under the control of two promoters that respond to different environmental cues [PDF]
Rhizobium sp. str. NT-26 is a gram-negative facultative chemolithoautotrophic arsenite oxidiser that has been used as a model organism to study various aspects of arsenite oxidation including the regulation of arsenite oxidation.

Salivary and gut microbiomes play a significant role in in vitro oral bioaccessibility, biotransformation, and intestinal absorption of arsenic from food [PDF]
The release of a toxicant from a food matrix during the gastrointestinal digestion is a crucial determinant of the toxicant's oral bioavailability. We present a modified setup of the human simulator of the gut microbial ecosystem (SHIME), with four ...
