Gold is a precious commodity, but it is also present in the body of many living beings, including humans, in trace amounts. A tiny 0.02 percent of human blood is gold, but in high concentrations and ...
Australian scientists have found that the bacterium Cupriavidus metallidurans catalyses the biomineralisation of gold by transforming toxic gold compounds to their metallic form using active cellular ...

The gold you see in the photo above was not found in a river or a mine. It was produced by a bacteria that, according to researchers at Michigan State University, can survive in extreme toxic ...
Researchers at Michigan State University have discovered bacteria with the remarkable ability to turn toxic chemical compounds into 24-karat gold. The breakthrough, detailed in a combination art and ...
Researchers from the Michigan State University have found that the metal-tolerant bacteria ‘Cupriavidus metallidurans’ can grow on massive concentrations of gold chloride or liquid gold, a toxic ...
It was the alchemical quest that was midwife to the birth of modern science: how to transform common elements into precious gold. Now researchers have found a bacterium that could fit the bill as a ...
