Mycobacteria Isolated from Angkor Monument Sandstones Grow Chemolithoautotrophically by Oxidizing Elemental Sulfur

To characterize sulfate-producing microorganisms from the deteriorated sandstones of Angkor monuments in Cambodia, strains of Mycobacterium spp. were isolated from most probable number-positive cultures. All five strains isolated were able to use both elemental sulfur (S(0)) for chemolithoautotrophi...
