Microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICCP) is a naturally occurring
biological process in which microbes produce inorganic materials as part of their basic …

The moderately halophilic heterotrophic aerobic bacteria form a diverse group of
microorganisms. The property of halophilism is widespread within the bacterial domain …

The process of microbial mineral plugging in porous media is common in nature. We
examined physical and biochemical properties of CaCO3 precipitation induced by Bacillus …

Enrichments for indigenous microorganisms capable of hydrolyzing urea in the presence of
CaCl2 were performed on potentially liquefiable saturated soils in both the laboratory and in …

The weathering of monumental stones is a complex process inserted in the more general
'matter transformation cycle'operated by physical, chemical and biological factors. The …

Myxococcus xanthus, a common soil bacterium, plays an active role in the formation of
spheroidal vaterite. Bacterial production of CO2 and NH3 and the transformation of the NH3 …

Biomimetic synthesis of inorganic composites is a rapidly develo** research area lying at
the nexus of chemistry, biology, medicine, and materials science. Biomimetic processes …

Biogenic carbonates spawned from microbial activities are common occurrences in soils.
Here, we investigate the carbonate biomineralization mediated by the bacterium Bacillus …

This publication brings together wide-ranging scientific contributions from the field of plant
biology relating to the conservation of cultural heritage and offers fundamental knowledge …

The deposition of the CaCO 3 crystals in circulating cooling water is crucial to industrial
water softening, which is beneficial to avoiding internal scaling and improving production …
