Microbial Methylation of Iodide in Unconfined Aquifer Sediments at the Hanford Site, USA

Incomplete knowledge of environmental transformation reactions limits our ability to accurately inventory and predictably model the fate of radioiodine. The most prevalent chemical species of iodine include iodate (IO3−), iodide (I−), and organo-iodine. The emission of gaseous species could be a los...
