Methylmercury formation in biofilms of Geobacter sulfurreducens [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 IntroductionMercury (Hg) is a major environmental pollutant that accumulates in biota predominantly in the form of methylmercury (MeHg). Surface-associated microbial communities (biofilms) represent an important source of MeHg in natural aquatic systems.

Quantification of microaerobic growth of Geobacter sulfurreducens. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2020 Geobacter sulfurreducens was originally considered a strict anaerobe. However, this bacterium was later shown to not only tolerate exposure to oxygen but also to use it as terminal electron acceptor.

Microbial Reduction of Antimony(V)-Bearing Ferrihydrite by Geobacter sulfurreducens [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2023 Antimony is an emerging contaminant that shares chemical characteristics with arsenic. Metal-reducing bacteria (such as Geobacter sulfurreducens ) can cause the mobilization of arsenic from Fe(III) minerals under anaerobic conditions, causing widespread contamination of aquifers worldwide.
