Reduction of chromium (VI) by the indirect action of Thiobacillus thioparus
The microbial reduction of chromium(VI) to chromium(III) has been one of the most widely studied forms of metal bioremediation. Recently, we have found that Thiobacillus ferrooxidans and Thiobacillus thiooxidans, growing on elemental sulphur, can indirectly promote chromium(VI) reduction by producin...
