In various sediments in which Fe(III) reduction was the terminal electron-accepting process, [C]glucose was fermented to C-fatty acids in a manner similar to that observed in methanogenic sediments. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that, in Fe(III)-reducing sediments, fermentable substrates are oxidized to carbon dioxide by the combined activity of fermentative bacteria and fatty acid-oxidizing, Fe(III)-reducing bacteria.
在各种以 Fe(III)还原为末端电子接受过程的沉积物中,[C]葡萄糖以类似于产甲烷沉积物中观察到的方式发酵为 C 脂肪酸。这些结果与以下假设一致,即在 Fe(III)还原沉积物中,可发酵底物通过发酵细菌和脂肪酸氧化 Fe(III)还原细菌的联合活性氧化为二氧化碳。
