Insights Into the Mineralogy and Surface Chemistry of Extracellular Biogenic S0 Globules Produced by Chlorobaculum tepidum

Elemental sulfur (S0) is produced and degraded by phylogenetically diverse groups of microorganisms. For Chlorobaculum tepidum, an anoxygenic phototroph, sulfide is oxidized to produce extracellular S0 globules, which can be further oxidized to sulfate. While some sulfur-oxidizing bacteria (e.g., Al...
