Abstract
⺠As(III)-oxidizing bacterium was isolated from a low arsenic contained soil. ⺠The strain was identified by 16S rRNA as Variovorax sp. ⺠It oxidized As(III) to As(V) very rapidly with low Km and high Vmax kinetic value. ⺠The strain showed high tolerance to both As(III) and As(V). ⺠Arsenite oxidase (aoxB) gene was identified and characterized.
