Discrimination between 34S and 32S during bacterial metabolism of inorganic sulfur compounds.
Sulfur isotope effects during the oxidation of thiosulfate by Thiobacillus versutus were found to be negligible. This result is considered in relation to other oxidative and reductive processes to assess which reactions are most likely to control the isotopic compositions of sulfur compounds in microbial sulfureta.
