The development of the smart bioremediation methods includes the direct application of the potential screened microbial strains and their enzymes. The immobilized microbial strains and their enzymes ...

Pentachlorophenol (PCP) is a widespread, persistent environmental contaminant that has been, and in some developing countries still is one of the extensively used fungicides and pesticides, especially ...

“A 50 percent reduction in soil contaminants after three months of bioremediation does seem possible,” says Mia Maltz, a soil microbial ecologist at the University of Connecticut. Maltz served ...

Five gene clusters have been integrated into the bacterium Vibrio natriegens to engineer a strain that can remediate five organic pollutants — toluene, phenol, naphthalene, biphenyl and ...

Jeshuah Gilroy’s research examines a process called bioremediation – using a unique mix of bacteria and fungi to breakdown quinoline, a toxic industrial pollutant. The carcinogenic compound poses ...

A growing body of scientific work is revealing a remarkable feature of certain microbes. They can “breathe” in a way that produces electricity instead of relying on oxygen, suggesting unusual survival ...

In the light of these, the use of biological agents to restore contaminated sites termed ‘bioremediation’ is considered to be a more eco-friendly and cost-effective means of remediation. Hence, these ...
