Microorganisms associated with uranium bioremediation in a high-salinity subsurface sediment

Article Abstract:

Research has been conducted on microorganisms associated with metal reduction. The hypothesis that these microorganisms can grow at high salinities in uranium-contaminated groundwaters has been tested, and the results demonstrate that acetate addition could stimulate uranium removal from the groundwater, and that this removal could be associated with enrichment of Pseudomonas and Desulfosporosinus species.

Isolation, characterization and U(VI)- reducing potential of a facultatively anaerobic, acid-resistant bacterium from subsurface sediment and description of salmonella subterranean description

Article Abstract:

Analysis of 16S rDNA sequence of the isolate indicates that this strain was 96.4% similar to salmonella bongori and 96.3% similar to enterobacter cloacae. Physical and phylogenetic analyses suggested that strain FRCI belongs to the genus salmonella and represents a new species, salmonella subterranea sp. nov.
