Sulfolobus : A new genus of sulfur-oxidizing bacteria living at low pH and high temperature

Sulfolobus is a new genus of bacteria characterized as follows: 1. generally spherical cells producing frequent lobes; 2. facultative autotrophy with growth on sulfur or on a variety of simple...

Life in the Extreme: New Prokaryotes Living in High Temperature Low pH Environments

There are a number of new organisms that live in acid hot springs that we now know about. These organisms live at about the temperature optimum of Sulfolobus (~70°C) and significantly above that optimum. These organisms grow well below...

SURVIVAL OF BACTERIA AT LOW pH AND HIGH TEMPERATURE1

In most acid hot springs examined Sulfolobus was the predominant organism above 75°C at pH 2–3. It was found from 65–93°C at pH values from 1.6 to 3. The temperature optimum for growth was 70–75°C, whereas the pH optimum for 14 C‐...
