Molybdenum Isotope Fingerprinting of Microbial Sulfate Reduction in Seep Carbonate Rocks [PDF]
Understanding the interaction between molybdenum (Mo) and organic matter during microbial sulfate reduction is critical for the use of Mo to reconstruct marine redox conditions throughout Earth's history.

INHIBITION OF MICROBIAL SULFATE REDUCTION BY MOLYBDATE
Hydrogen sulfide generation in oil production is a constant cause of concern. In several cases this phenomenon occurs due to the action of sulfate-reducing bacteria. Various methods, including biocides and nitrate addition, have been used to control the activity of these microorganisms, but they are expensive and have side effects.

Microbial sulfate reduction and metal attenuation in pH 4 acid mine water [PDF]
AbstractSediments recovered from the flooded mine workings of the Penn Mine, a Cu-Zn mine abandoned since the early 1960s, were cultured for anaerobic bacteria over a range of pH (4.0 to 7.5). The molecular biology of sediments and cultures was studied to determine whether sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) were active in moderately acidic conditions ...

Characterizing the distribution and rates of microbial sulfate reduction at Middle Valley hydrothermal vents [PDF]
Few studies have directly measured sulfate reduction at hydrothermal vents, and relatively little is known about how environmental or ecological factors influence rates of sulfate reduction in vent environments.

Microbial hydrocarbon uptake and the effect of hydrocarbons on microbial sulfate reduction
Guaymas Basin, located in the Gulf of California, Mexico, is a young marginal ocean basin with high sedimentation rates of >1 mm/year, active seafloor spreading, and steep geothermal gradients in its sediment. It hosts a unique subseafloor biosphere as these conditions lead to the thermal cracking of sedimentary organic matter and the production of ...

Thermophilic and mesophilic sulfate reduction by rare biosphere bacteria in acidic metal-bearing mine wastes from the temperate climate zone [PDF]
Dissimilatory sulfate reduction is the main microbial process that detoxifies metals and increases pH in acid mine drainage. Acidophilic, copper-resistant Desulfosporosinus sp. BG and Desulfosporosinus sp.

Cryptic sulfur cycling in the deep biosphere of ferruginous Lake Towuti, Indonesia [PDF]
Lake Towuti, Sulawesi, Indonesia is an ancient tectonic lake, exhibiting iron-rich, sulfate-poor anoxic deep waters. Temporal variations in water column stratification led to sediment accumulation under variable redox conditions.
