Acidithrix ferrooxidans
Acidithrix ferrooxidans (A. ferrooxidans) is a heterotrophic, acidophilic and Gram-positive bacterium from the genus of Acidithrix. The type strain of this species, A. ferrooxidans Py-F3 was isolated from an acidic stream draining from a copper mine in Wales. This species grows in a variety of acidic environments such as streams, mines or geothermal sites. Mine lakes with a redoxcline support growth with ferrous iron as the electron donor. A. ferrooxidans grows rapidly in macroscopic streamer, producing greater cell densities than other streamer-forming microbes. Use in a bioreactors to remediate mine waste has been proposed due to cell densities and rapid oxidation of ferrous iron oxidation in acidic mine drainage. Exopolysaccharide production during metal substrate metabolism, such as ir
