Incorporation of Hydroxamate Siderophore and Associated Fe Into Marine Particles in Natural Seawater

Incorporation of Hydroxamate Siderophore and Associated Fe Into Marine Particles in Natural Seawater

Microorganisms produce soluble low-molecular-weight (LMW, <1 kDa) siderophores, one of the strongest Fe-binding agents, to respond to the scarcity of Fe in the ocean. The presence of siderophores in marine particles/colloids is mostly not considered. Here, experimental evidence is provided to...
