Siderophore-promoted dissolution of chromium from hydroxide minerals

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE-PROCESSES & IMPACTS, 16(6), 1348–1359.

By: O. Duckworth n, M. Akafia n, M. Andrews n & J. Bargar*

Contributors: O. Duckworth n, M. Akafia n, M. Andrews n & J. Bargar*

MeSH headings : Chromium / chemistry; Environmental Pollutants / chemistry; Hydrogen-Ion Concentration; Hydroxides / chemistry; Minerals / chemistry; Models, Chemical; Siderophores / chemistry; Solubility
TL;DR: A series of dissolution experiments were conducted to quantify the dissolution rates of Cr(iii)(OH)3 in the presence of hydroxamate, catecholate, and α-hydroxycarboxylate siderophores over a range of environmentally relevant pH values, suggesting a ligand-promoted dissolution mechanism at alkaline pH.
