“…Among the various types of micro-organisms, SRB are considered the major bacterial group responsible for microbial corrosion under anaerobic conditions [3,4]. Several studies have been conducted to investigate SRB-induced corrosion of iron substrate, and SRB are widely accepted to play a crucial role in the anaerobic MIC of iron, low-alloy steel, and stainless steel [5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17]. Various mechanisms explain the enhanced corrosion caused by SRB.…”
