Humic substances as electron acceptors for microbial respiration
HUMIC substances are heterogeneous high-molecular-weight organic materials which are ubiquitous in terrestrial and aquatic environments. They are resistant to microbial degradation1 and thus are not… Expand

Microorganisms pumping iron: anaerobic microbial iron oxidation and reduction
Iron (Fe) has long been a recognized physiological requirement for life, yet for many microorganisms that persist in water, soils and sediments, its role extends well beyond that of a nutritional… Expand

Microbial perchlorate reduction: rocket-fuelled metabolism
It is less than 7 years since perchlorate, a predominantly man-made toxic anion, was first identified as a significant water contaminant throughout the United States. Owing to its solubility and… Expand

Anaerobic benzene oxidation coupled to nitrate reduction in pure culture by two strains of Dechloromonas
Benzene contamination is a significant problem. It is used in a wide range of manufacturing processes and is a primary component of petroleum-based fuels. Benzene is a hydrocarbon that is soluble,… Expand

Mercury Methylation by Dissimilatory Iron-Reducing Bacteria
ABSTRACT The Hg-methylating ability of dissimilatory iron-reducing bacteria in the genera Geobacter, Desulfuromonas, and Shewanella was examined. All of the Geobacter and Desulfuromonas strains… Expand

Phylogenetic analysis of dissimilatory Fe(III)-reducing bacteria.
Evolutionary relationships among strictly anaerobic dissimilatory Fe(III)-reducing bacteria obtained from a diversity of sedimentary environments were examined by phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA… Expand

Humic Substances as a Mediator for Microbially Catalyzed Metal Reduction
The potential for humic substances to serve as a terminal electron acceptor in microbial respiration and to function as an electron shuttle between Fe(III)-reducing microorganisms and insoluble… Expand

Geothrix fermentans gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel Fe(III)-reducing bacterium from a hydrocarbon-contaminated aquifer.
In an attempt to understand better the micro-organisms involved in anaerobic degradation of aromatic hydrocarbons in the Fe(III)-reducing zone of petroleum-contaminated aquifers, Fe(III)-reducing… Expand

Dissimilatory arsenate and sulfate reduction in Desulfotomaculum auripigmentum sp. nov.
Abstract A newly discovered arsenate-reducing bacterium, strain OREX-4, differed significantly from strains MIT-13 and SES-3, the previously described arsenate-reducing isolates, which grew on… Expand
