Microbial melanins provide a biocompatible and scalable approach for bioremediation and radioprotection technologies due to their physicochemical properties.

Bacillus selenatarsenatis sp. nov. strain SF-1(T) is a promising agent for bioremediation of environments contaminated with selenium and arsenic. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of this strain.

Bioremediation of Contaminated Riparian Zones Using Mycorrhizal Fungi – An Exploration of the Feasibility of Restoration Through Mycoremediation

Genetically engineered microorganisms (GEMs) have shown potential for bioremediation applications in soil, groundwater, and activated sludge environments, exhibiting enhanced degradative capabilities encompassing a wide range of chemical contaminants. However, the vast majority of studies pertaining to genetically engineered microbial bioremediation are supported by laboratory-based experimenta...

A variety of expression systems for the display of either short peptides or fully folded proteins on E.coli and, to a lesser extent, on Gram-positive bacteria have been developed. The expression of proteins on the surface of microbial cells has proved extremely important for numerous applications ranging from combinatorial library screening and protein engineering, to whole cell biocatalysts an...

the study applied an isolated brevibacterium sp. (mtcc 10313) for bioremediation of zn, cu, mg and pb in domestic sewage. batch culture experiments were performed on both the fresh and stale sewage samples with glucose supplementation of 1-8g/l. nutrient broth medium was prepared, sterilized and ph adjusted to 6.5-6.8. 1% of the brevibacteria sp. stock was inoculated into the broth and maintain...

BACKGROUND Petrochemical industry is one of the fastest growing industries. This industry has immense importance in the growth of economy and manufacture of large varieties of chemicals. The petrochemical industry is a hazardous group of industry generating hazardous waste containing organic and inorganic compounds. In spite of the present treatment process, the hazardous waste compounds are fo...

The relationship between toxicity and soil contamination must be understood to develop reliable indicators of environmental restoration for bioremediation. Two bacterial rapid bioassays, SOS chromotest and the umu test with and without metabolic activation (S-9 mixture), were used to evaluate the genotoxicity of petroleum hydrocarbon-contaminated soil following bioremediation treatment. The soi...
