- Abstract:
- ... A phytotoxicity assay based on seed germination/root elongation has been optimized and used to evaluate the toxic effects of some phenolic herbicides. The method has been improved by investigating the influence of experimental conditions. Lepidium sativum was chosen as the most suitable species, showing high germinability, good repeatability of root length measurements, and low sensitivity to seed ...

- Abstract:
- ... In this work, gold microelectrodes are employed as traps for the detection of volatilized metallic mercury produced by mercuric reductase (MerA) extracted from an Hg-resistant Pseudomonas putida strain FB1. The enzymatic reduction of Hg (II) to Hg (0) was induced by NADPH cofactor added to the samples. The amount of Hg(0) accumulated on the gold microelectrode surface was determined by anodic stri ...

- Abstract:
- ... A mechanism of mercury detoxification has been suggested by a previous study on Hg bioaccumulation in Manila clams (Ruditapes philippinarum) in the polluted Marano and Grado lagoons and in this study we demonstrate that this event could be partly related to the detoxifying activities of Hg-resistant bacteria (MRB) harbored in clam soft tissues. Therefore, natural clams were collected in six statio ...

- Abstract:
- ... Iron and palladium binding an exopolysaccharide (EPS) were obtained and purified from cultures of bacterial cells of Klebsiella oxytoca BAS-10. The strain BAS-10 was able to grow under anaerobic conditions with Fe(III)-citrate as energy and carbon source, producing Fe(III)-EPS that was extracted and used as catalyst in the oxidation reaction of phenol with H₂O₂. The same bacterial strain was culti ...

- Abstract:
- ... Benthic diatoms represent an important element of global nutritional productivity; to raise attention on their role, which is often neglected due to analytical difficulties, surface (1 cm top layer) coastal sediments from Gerlache inlet to Penguin Bay at Terra Nova Bay were collected and stored at −20 °C. DNA amplification by real-time PCR, based on diatom-specific oligonucleotide primers designed ...
