## Abstract This study comprises the first report of ferrous iron oxidation by psychrotolerant, acidophilic ironβoxidizing bacteria capable of growing at 5Β°C. Samples of mine drainageβimpacted surface soils and sediments from the Norilsk mining region (Taimyr, Siberia) and Kristineberg (Skellefte d
Low concentrations of 2H20 had either no observable influence, or a slightly stimulatory effect, on the translational movement of flagellated bacteria. High 2H20 levels had marked, but transient, effects, expressed as a retardation of movement, especially on peritriehous forms. Polarly flagellated b
Methanogenic enrichment cultures degrading lignocellulose, propionate, acetate, and I-L-CO: were adapted to media of various salinities and specific growth rates were determined. NaCI concentrations up to 0"25 M had little effect on growth rate of propionate-, acetate-, or tt2-CO:-degrading cultures
