Bioremediation of Alpechin
Olive oil extraction produces large amounts of residues. These olive-mill wastes are known as alpechin. Alpechin-polluted waste waters are resistant to degradation. They are regarded as a severe environmental problem because of their high organic content, largely simple phenolic compounds that are both antimicrobial and phytotoxic. During the past years, most of the investigations related to al...
متن کاملEHPnet: Bioremediation
Background: 18F-FLT is a novel PET radiotracer which has demonstrated a strong potential utility for imaging cellular proliferation in human tumors in vivo. To facilitate future regulatory approval of 18F-FLT for clinical use, we wished to demonstrate the safety of radiotracer doses of 18F-FLT administered to human subjects, by: 1) performing an evaluation of the toxicity of 18F-FLT administere...
متن کاملBioremediation of Petroleum Sludge
Bioremediation, or the use of micro-organisms to decontaminate soil or groundwater, is being increasingly seen as an effective, environmentfriendly treatment for oilcontaminated sites. Many reports indicated that, large quantities of organic and inorganic compounds are released into the environments every year as results of human activities causing serious environmental problems. Among those pr...
متن کاملThe sociality of bioremediation
H eavy metals, such as cadmium, copper, mercury, and arsenic, are ubiquitous components of the Earth’s crust. Most of these metals are toxic to varying degrees, and life has accordingly evolved ways to deal with them: either by developing mechanisms to detoxify them, or using them for biological functions. As humans began unearthing metals to be turned into consumer products, large amounts of h...
متن کاملBioremediation of Contaminated Sites
Bioremediation is a process in which microorganisms metabolize contaminants either through oxidative or reductive processes. Under favorable conditions, microorganisms can oxidatively degrade organic contaminants completely into non-toxic by-products such as carbon dioxide and water or organic acids and methane. Highly electrophilic compounds such as halogenated aliphatics and explosives typica...
