Query: NC_013943:2705983 Denitrovibrio acetiphilus DSM 12809 chromosome, complete genome Lineage: Denitrovibrio acetiphilus; Denitrovibrio; Deferribacteraceae; Deferribacterales; Deferribacteres; Bacteria General Information: Isolation: Oil reservoir model column; Country: Norway; Temp: Mesophile; Habitat: Fresh water, Marine. This organism was first isolated from an oil reservoir modeling column under nitrate enrichment and reduces nitrate to ammonia. Stimulating the growth of nitrate-reducing bacterium in an oil well may prevent the growth of sulfate-reducing bacterium which cause reservoir souring by the production of H2S.

General Information: Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, formerly Thiobacillus ferrooxidans, is an acidophilic iron-oxidizing bacterium that is able to grow at a pH range of 1.3 to 4.0. This organism is often identified in acid mine drainage and as a member of microbial consortia involved in bioleaching. Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans has been identified as the dominant microorganism in percolation and continuous flow mineral leaching bioreactors.
