Biological sulfide oxidation and its impact on cell biomass synthesis by Mesophilic bacterium bacillus cerues (ATCC 14579)

Inhibitory effects of hydrogen sulfide could either be due to toxicity to living tissue or precipitation of sulfide salts which inhibit its utilization for cell growth. Growth, is undoubtedly affected by certain conditions, among which are nutrient types and availability, as well as the operational...
