The interaction of sediment bacteria with arsenic compounds
In general, bacteria are capable of biotransforming inorganic arsenic into methylarsenic acids and arsines. The microbial activity of lake sediments was examined with respect to the mobilization of mine tailings that have a high arsenic content. Aerobic and anaerobic mixed microbial populations were...
