Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) of S32654 (654SMO) super austenitic stainless steel (SASS) by acid producing bacterium (APB), Acidithiobacillus caldus SM-1, a strain of sulfur-oxidizing bacteria (SOB) used in biohydrometallurgy field, was investigated using electrochemical measurements and surface characterizations during a 14-day immersion test. The results indicated that S32654 SASS was susceptible to MIC by APB, and A. caldus SM-1 was capable of producing an aggressive acidic environment underneath the biofilm, resulting in the dissolution of the passive film and severe pitting attacks against S32654 SASS, which is commonly regarded as a corrosion resistant material.

High-potential iron-sulfur proteins (HiPIPs) from extremely acidophilic chemolithotrophic non-photosynthetic Acidithiobacillus commonly play a crucial role in ferrous or sulfurous biooxidation. Acidithiobacillus exhibit important industrial applications for bioleaching valuable metals from sulfide ores. In this study, two HiPIP genes from thermophilic Acidithiobacillus caldus SM-1 were cloned and successfully expressed, and their proteins were purified.

Background: Acidithiobacillus caldus is a sulfur oxidizing extreme acidophile and the only known mesothermophile within the Acidithiobacillales. As such, it is one of the preferred microbes for mineral bioprocessing at moderately high temperatures. In this study, we explore the genomic diversity of A.
