Effect of polysulfides on cinnabar solubility, partitioning, and methylation by Desulfovibrio desufuricans

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

Sulfate reducing bacteria are believed to be the most important methylators of mercury in aquatic systems. Methylation may be controlled by the availability of mercury to these bacteria and therefore may depend on mercury speciation in sulfidic water ...
