Reduction of akaganeite in cultures of Desulfitobacterium hafniense strains TCE1 and LBE. Reduction was measured by quantifying Fe(II) after 0, 1, and 2 days of incubation in the presence of akaganeite. Abiotic controls were also performed. Fe(II) values are the averages and standard deviations from three independent replicates. A change in the appearance of the TCE1 and LBE cultures compared to the abiotic control is shown at the bottom of the figure.
