- Abstract:
- ... Petroleum pollution is a global problem that requires effective and accessible remediation strategies that takes ecosystem functioning into serious consideration. Bioremediation can be an effective tool to address the challenge. In this study, we used a mesocosm experiment to evaluate the effects of locally sourced and community produced biochar and compost amendments on diesel-contaminated soil. ...

- Abstract:
- ... Biodegradation of phenol has been investigated using a bacterial consortium consisting of two bacterial isolates; one of them used for the first time in phenol biodegradation. This consortium was isolated from activated sludge and identified as Providencia stuartii PL4 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa PDM (accession numbers KY848366 and MF445102, respectively). The degradation of phenol by this consorti ...

- Abstract:
- ... This study was undertaken to determine the effect of aromatic hydrocarbons on growth and plant growth promoting activities of Azotobacter chroococcum strain JL104. The organism was grown on Jensen’s media without sucrose, supplemented with different concentrations of aromatic hydrocarbons. Azotobacter chroococcum strain JL104 was able to grow in the presence of benzene, toluene, aniline and benzoi ...

- Abstract:
- ... Carcinogenic effects of arsenic through consumption of contaminated water are an alarming threat and there is an emergent need to reduce extremely high levels of toxic arsenic from environment. Bacterial biofilms produce polyanionic extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) that is considered an excellent biosorbent material for the remediation of toxic metals and metalloids. This study was aimed to ...

- Abstract:
- ... Experimental studies have been carried out to find the bioremediation activity of bacteria with molybdenum and zinc ions separately on the toxic insecticide, chlorpyrifos. Two bacterial strains, ZS²⁰ (Enterobacter sp. strain TSNG) and E₅₇ (Pseudomonas sp. strain GRTM) and three inorganic salts: ammonium-molybdate, sodium-molybdate, and zinc-nitrate, have been used for the degradation of toxic inse ...

This study investigated the characteristics of exudates from mangrove plant Avicennia marina seedling roots under 0, 200 and 600 mM NaCl treatments and their complexation behavior with trace metals using excitation emission matrix (EEM) fluorescence spectrometry. Two fulvic-like fluorescence peaks, namely peak A (Em = 440 nm, Ex = 250 nm, UV fulvic-like compounds) and peak B (Em = 440 nm, Ex = 340 ...
