Abstract excerpt
A thermophilic, sulfate-reducing bacterium, strain MT-96T, was isolated from an active, marine, shallow-water hydrothermal vent system. It used a large variety of substrates, ranging from simple organic compounds to long-chain fatty acids, as electron donors. Autotrophic growth was possible with H2 and CO2 in the presence of sulfate. Sulfate, thiosulfate and sulfite were used as electron acceptors. Sulfur and...
