Metal Transformation by a Novel Pelosinus Isolate From a Subsurface Environment

The capability of microorganisms to alter metal speciation offers potential for the development of new strategies for immobilization of toxic metals in the environment. A metal-reducing microbe, “Pelosinus lilae” strain UFO1, was isolated under strictly anaerobic conditions from an Fe(III)-reducing...
