Effect of Oxidation Reduction Potential (eh) on the Biocatalytic Oxidation of As3+ to As5+ in a Mixed Culture of Chemoautotrophic Bacteria

Biocatalytic oxidation of Arsenite (As3+) to arsenate (As5+) in a mobilized and immobilized chemoautotrophic bacterium has been a challenging area of metallic bioremediation research. This is because arsenic in its trivalent form (As(III)) is a major water pollutant and a threat to the human health...
