Hydrogen slowed Fe(II) oxidation to varying degrees depending on the bicarbonate concentration, but even the slowest rate of Fe(II) oxidation remained on the same order of magnitude as that estimated to have been necessary to deposit the Hamersley banded iron formations. Given the hydrogen and bicarbonate concentrations inferred for the Archean, our data suggest that Fe(II) phototrophy could have been a viable process at this time. ## Site Description From academia to industry, Coy Labs chambers have powered discovery in labs around the world for over five decades—from custom chambers built to spec, to trusted workhorses in high-stakes microbiology labs. --- **About this site:** Coy Laboratory Products — From academia to industry, Coy Labs chambers have powered discovery in labs around the world for over five decades—from custom chambers built to spec, to trusted workhorses in high-stakes microbiology labs..
