| Abstract | Ferric (oxyhydr)oxide minerals are widespread in the (sub)surface soils such as in agricultural fields, and arsenic compounds have been used widely in the production of pesticides, herbicides, and insecticides, which have caused potential As contaminations in the (sub)surface soils including Fe-(oxyhydr)oxides. Because one of the potential relationships between Fe-(oxyhydr)oxides and As was suggested above, scientists have been motivated to investigate the relationship between Fe-(oxyhydr)oxides and As. In the present study, a dissimilatory Fe(III)-reducing bacterium, Shewanella sp. HN-41 was employed to elucidate effect of microbial Fe(III) reduction on the relationship between Fe-(oxyhydr)oxides and As, and incubated with lactate and synthetic Fe(III)-oxyhydroxide as the electron donor and acceptor, respectively, in the presence of As(III). For comparison, abiotic incubations were performed under the same condition except for addition of the bacterial cells. By sequential chemical extraction of the incubation products, As(III) was determined to be incorporated into the bioreduced minerals at higher concentrations (∼14.4% of the total extracted As) than in the abiotic products (∼10.2%) that were aged for the same duration as the microbial incubation. The results of this study emphasized that bacterial Fe(III)-reduction of the initial synthetic Fe-oxyhydroxide, akaganéite, induced more As(III) incorporation into the structures of the final product minerals than the abiotic transformation of the initial As(III)-adsorbed Fe-oxyhydroxide in the control incubations. Thus, microbial Fe(III)-reduction-mediated incorporation of As(III) into biotransformed Fe-(oxy)(hydr)oxide minerals could be suggested as one of potential strategies for arsenic immobilization in anoxic soils and groundwater. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
