Redox-stat bioreactors for elucidating mobilisation mechanisms of trace elements: An example of As-contaminated mining soils.
(2018)
The environmental fate of major (e.g. C, N, S, Fe and Mn) and trace (e.g. As, Cr, Sb, Se and U) elements is governed by microbially catalysed reduction-oxidation (redox) reactions. Mesocosms are routinely used to elucidate ...
Re-using bauxite residues: benefits beyond (critical raw) material recovery
(2018)
Since the world economy has been confronted with an increasing risk of supply shortages of critical raw materials (CRMs), there has been a major interest in identifying alternative secondary sources of CRMs. Bauxite residues ...
Quantification of methylated selenium, sulfur, and arsenic in the environment
(2014)
Biomethylation and volatilization of trace elements may contribute to their redistribution in the environment. However, quantification of volatile, methylated species in the environment is complicated by a lack of ...
Understanding selenium biogeochemistry in engineered ecosystems: Transformation and analytical methods
(2017)
Selenium is used extensively in many industries, and it is necessary for human nutrition. On the other hand, it is also toxic at slightly elevated concentrations. With the advent of industrialisation, selenium concentrations ...
Rhizobacteria and Plant Symbiosis in Heavy Metal Uptake and Its Implications for Soil Bioremediation
(2017)
Certain species of plants can benefit from synergistic effects with plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) that improve plant growth and metal accumulation, mitigating toxic effects on plants and increasing their ...
An artificial metalloenzyme for carbene transfer based on a biotinylated dirhodium anchored within streptavidin
(2018-04)
We report on artificial metalloenzymes that incorporate a biotinylated dirhodium core embedded within engineered streptavidin (Sav hereafter) variants. The resulting biohybrid catalyzes the carbene insertion in C–H bonds ...
