Microbial metabolism has the potential to alter the solubility of a broad range of priority
radionuclides, including uranium, other actinides and fission products. Of notable interest …

Actinomycetes have been proven to be an excellent source of secondary metabolites for
more than half a century. Exhibiting various bioactivities, they provide valuable approved …

Microorganisms mediate nutrient cycling in soils, and thus it is assumed that they largely
control responses of terrestrial ecosystems to anthropogenic nutrient inputs. Therefore, it is …

Acidification and pollution are two major threats to agricultural ecosystems; however,
microbial community responses to co-existed soil acidification and pollution remain less …

Present-day knowledge on the regulatory biology of denitrification is based on studies of
selected model organisms. These show large variations in their potential contribution to …

Biological sensors can be engineered to measure a wide range of environmental conditions.
Here we show that statistical analysis of DNA from natural microbial communities can be …

To ensure global food security, agriculture must increase productivity while reducing
environmental impacts associated with chemical nitrogen (N) fertilisation. This necessitates …

In rural domestic wastewater treatment using subsurface constructed wetland system
(SFCWs), the lack of a carbon source for denitrification and limited phosphorus uptake are …

The anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) mediated by microorganisms is a key process in
the reduction of methane emissions, and AOM-coupled electron acceptors have been …

Silver nano-particles (AgNPs) are widely used in a range of consumer products as a result of
their antimicrobial properties. Given the broad spectrum of uses, AgNPs have the potential …
