The Role of Fe(III) Oxyhydroxides in Shaping Microbial Communities Capable of Fe(III) Reduction

Iron oxyhrdroxide exist in a range of crystallinities and subsequent bioavailabilities with the poorly crystalline Fe oxyhrdroxide, ferrihydrite, considered the most bioavailable. Yet, as a result of the instability ferrihydrite it quickly ripens and/or transforms to more thermodynamically stable e...
