Chemolithoautotrophic arsenite oxidation by a thermophilic Anoxybacillus flavithermus TCC9-4 from hot spring in Tengchong of Yunnan, China

A new facultative chemolithoautotrophic arsenite-oxidizing bacterium TCC9-4 was isolated from a hot spring microbial mat in Tengchong of Yunnan, China. This strain could grow with arsenite (AsIII) as an energy source, CO2-HCO3- as a carbon source and oxygen as the electron acceptor in a minimal salt...
