Oolitic ironstones are iron-rich and chert-poor sedimentary rocks containing concentrically
coated grains composed of iron (oxyhydr) oxides and iron phyllosilicates that offer a unique …

Iron oxides are important constituents of soils and sediments and microbial iron reduction is
considered to be a significant anaerobic respiration process in the subsurface, however low …

Uncovers the Key Role Microbes Play in the Transformation of Oxidizable and Reducible
MineralsMany areas of geomicrobial processes are receiving serious attention from …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in O2-perturbed subsurface environments has
been increasingly documented in recent years. However, the constraining conditions under …

Abstract Kinetics of nitrate (NO 3−) reduction and ferrous iron (Fe (II)) oxidation in paddy soil
were investigated under anoxic conditions at circumneutral pH using three different …

This study deals with the effects of hydrodynamic functioning of hard-rock aquifers on
microbial communities. In hard-rock aquifers, the heterogeneous hydrologic circulation …

The versatile soil bacterium Anaeromyxobacter dehalogenans lacks the hallmark
denitrification genes nirS and nirK (encoding NO2−→ NO reductases) and couples growth to …

Significance of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in subsurface has been increasingly
documented in recent years, whereas the mechanisms controlling ROS production and …

Household sand filters are used in rural areas of Vietnam to remove As, Fe, and Mn from
groundwater for drinking water purposes. Currently, it is unknown what role microbial …

Arsenic (As) is a widespread and problematic pollutant that can be derived from natural or
anthropogenic sources. Iron (oxyhydr) oxides readily sorb As and thus play critical roles in …
