Arsenic Thiolation and the Role of Sulfate-Reducing Bacteria from the Human Intestinal Tract
Background: Arsenic (As) toxicity is primarily based on its chemical speciation. Although inorganic and methylated As species are well characterized in terms of metabolism and formation in the human body, the origin of thiolated methylarsenicals is still unclear.
