Dissimilatory iron-reducing bacteria can influence the reduction of carbon tetrachloride by iron metal

Article Abstract:

Researchers from the University of New Hampshire presented evidence that Shewanella alga BrY, an iron-reducing bacterium, can increase the transformation rates of carbon tetrachloride (CT) in the presence of corroded iron. The byproduct of the reaction is chloroform and ferrous iron.

Carbon tetrachloride dechlorination by the bacterial transition metal chelator Pyridine-2,6-bis(thiocarboxylic acid)

Article Abstract:

This study uses a reaction pathway to explain how end products are formed during defined reactions between carbon tetrachloride and either pure cultures of Pseudomonas stutzeri KC or pyridine-2.6-bis(thiocarboxylic acid). The Department of Microbiology and Molecular Genetics and Department of Chemistry, University of Vermont and the Environmental Biotechnology Institute, University of Idaho, conducted the study.
