Anaerobic Growth of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1992
The obligately autotrophic acidophile Thiobacillus ferrooxidans was grown on elemental sulfur in anaerobic batch cultures, using ferric iron as an electron acceptor. During anaerobic growth, ferric iron present in the growth media was quantitatively reduced to ferrous iron.

U mobilization and associated U isotope fractionation by sulfur-oxidizing bacteria

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Uranium (U) contamination of the environment causes high risk to health, demanding for effective and sustainable remediation. Bioremediation via microbial reduction of soluble U(VI) is generating high fractions (>50%) of insoluble non-crystalline U(IV)

THE ANALYSIS OF ELECTRON TRANSFER MECHANISM WITHIN FUEL CELL SYSTEMS: ELECTROCHEMICAL AND MICROBIAL APPROACHES

Gazi Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Dergisi, 2023
Fuel cells are known as eco-friendly systems considering that only water is produced as a secondary product due to energy-producing reactions. However in order to increase the commercial usage of fuel cells, it is necessary to decrease the costs of the ...

Phenotypic switching of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1988
Two solid medium formulations, designated 100:10 and 10:10, were developed for the growth of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans. The new media contain a mixture of both ferrous iron and thiosulfate as available energy sources, permitting the detection of colony morphology variants that arise spontaneously in a wild-type population.

Plasmid and transposon transfer to Thiobacillus ferrooxidans [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1994
The broad-host-range IncP plasmids RP4, R68.45, RP1::Tn501, and pUB307 were transferred to acidophilic, obligately chemolithotrophic Thiobacillus ferrooxidans from Escherichia coli by conjugation. A genetic marker of kanamycin resistance was expressed in T. ferrooxidans. Plasmid RP4 was transferred back to E. coli from T. ferrooxidans.

Growth of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans on Formic Acid [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1991
A variety of acidophilic microorganisms were shown to be capable of oxidizing formate. These included Thiobacillus ferrooxidans ATCC 21834, which, however, could not grow on formate in normal batch cultures. However, the organism could be grown on formate when the substrate supply was growth limiting, e.g., in ...

Akinetic study of the depyritization of oil shale HCl-kerogen concentrate by Thiobacillus ferrooxidans at different temperatures [PDF]

Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2003
The results of kinetic studies of bacterial depyritization of HCl-kerogen concentrate of Aleksinac (Serbia) oil shale by the chemolithoautotrophic thionic bacteria Thiobacillus ferrooxidans under discontinuous laboratory conditions at various ...

Corrosion behavior of Q345R steel influenced by Thiobacillus ferrooxidans

Materials Research Express, 2021
Here, the corrosion weight-loss method, surface analysis technology, and electrochemical test methods were used to study the corrosion behavior and electrochemical characteristics of experimental samples of Q345R steel in a sterile solution (pH 2.0) and ...

Thiobacillus ferrooxidans, a facultative hydrogen oxidizer [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1990
The type strain (ATCC 23270) and two other strains of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans were able to grow by hydrogen oxidation, a feature not recognized before. When cultivated on H2, a hydrogenase was induced and the strains were less extremely acidophilic than during growth on sulfidic ores. Cells of T.

CHANGES IN SHALE OIL COMPOSITION AND YIELD AFTER BIOLEACHING BY BACILLUS MUCILAGINOSUS AND THIOBACILLUS FERROOXIDANS; pp. 146–154 [PDF]

Oil Shale, 2017
Bacillus mucilaginosus (B. mucilaginosus) and Thiobacillus ferrooxidans (T. ferrooxidans) have been earlier shown to be conducive to the demineralization of oil shale and thus improve shale oil yield.
