Reductive Transformation of Fe(III) (oxyhydr)Oxides by Mesophilic Homoacetogens in the Genus Sporomusa
Microbial reduction of iron contributes to the dissolution and transformation of iron-containing minerals in nature. Diverse groups of homoacetogenic bacteria (homoacetogens) have been reported to reduce insoluble Fe(III) oxides, such as hydrous ferric oxide (HFO), an Fe(III) mineral commonly found...
