Reduction of ferrihydrite with adsorbed and coprecipitated organic matter: microbial reduction by <i>Geobacter bremensis</i> vs. abiotic reduction by Na-dithionite
Ferrihydrite is a widespread poorly crystalline Fe oxide which becomes easily coated by natural organic matter in the environment. This mineral-bound organic matter entirely changes the mineral surface properties and therefore the reactivity of the original mineral. Here, we investigated 2-line ferr...
