Abstract Microbial-Induced Carbonate Precipitation (MICP) is a naturally occurring process
whereby bacteria produce enzymes that accelerate the precipitation of calcium carbonate …

Cracking is one of the major deteriorating causes of concrete, which allows the entrance of
chemicals and can lead to the loss of physico-mechanical and durability properties of …

In this review, we discuss microbiological and molecular concepts of Microbially Induced
Calcium Carbonate Precipitation (MICP) and their role in bioconcrete. MICP is a widespread …

Abstract Interfacial Transition Zones (ITZ) with high porosity are easier pathways for damage
initiation and propagation. However, their mechanical performance has hardly been …

Microbial induced calcite precipitation (MICP) is a part and consequence of metabolic
activities of many bacterial species with involvement of various pathways in presence of …

Cracks are one of the worsening reasons for concrete failure, which permits the penetration
of chemical solutions and could significantly impact the physical, mechanical, and durability …

Improving the performance of the interface between old mortar and recycled coarse
aggregate (RCA) is a hot topic and important to enhance the properties of recycled …

Strength improvement of cement-based materials by the addition of bacteria has been
reported over the past decade and has been mainly attributed to microbially induced calcite …

Portland cement concrete, the most used manufactured material in the world, is a significant
contributor to anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. While strategies such as point …

The use of bacteria for self-healing cement-based materials has shown great potential in
recent years. Microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) is a novel …
