Industrial Biotechnology and Applied Microbiology is an optional 128h-course for Chemistry and Biology students at the Faculty of Sciences, University of Buenos Aires, Argentina. This course is usually attended by 25 stu...

The objective of the present work was to establish optimal biological and physicochemical parameters in order to remove simultaneously lindane and Cr(VI) at high and/or low pollutants concentrations from the soil by an a...

Background: Environmental contamination with nickel is increasing due to the discharge of industrial effluents and other anthropogenic activities. Therefore, the improvement of methods for monitoring nickel concentration...

Phenol is a toxic aromatic compound widely released into the environment through oil refineries, petrochemical industries, and industrial effluents, posing serious risks to ecosystems and human health. Given its persiste...

The escalation of ecological degradation, marked by climatic instability, precipitous biodiversity loss, and systemic chemical infiltration, necessitates a shift toward integrated biotechnological intervention. This anal...

The accumulation of polyethylene (PE) mulch films in agricultural soils represents a persistent environmental challenge. This study aimed to construct and evaluate efficient microbial consortia for PE biodegradation and ...

Chlordane bioremediation using actinobacteria mixed culture is an attractive clean-up technique. Their ability to produce bioemulsifiers could increase the bioavailability of this pesticide. In order to select a defined ...

Monitored natural recovery (MNR) is an in situ technique of conventional remediation for the treatment of contaminated sediments that relies on natural processes to reduce the bioavailability or toxicity of contaminants....

ABSTRACT The fungi diversity in Brazil is not fully known yet, mainly in Serra de Maracaju, which is located in the central portion of the State of Mato Grosso do Sul, in the center-western region of Brazil. Samples were...

The valorization of fishery-derived wastes through microalgal biotechnology provides a practical route to integrate wastewater remediation with high-value bioproduct generation. This study demonstrates an integrated proc...

Abstract We present the complete genome sequence of Sphingomonas sp. gentR, a strain exhibiting high-level resistance to gentamicin (MIC = 40 mg/mL). The genome was assembled from hybrid Illumina and Nanopore seque...

Abstract Bioremediation offers a sustainable strategy for removing heavy metals from water by transforming toxic pollutants into less hazardous forms. In this study, a highly metal-tolerant bacterium, Lysinibacillus fusi...

Plastic pollution is a global crisis, with polystyrene (PS) among the most recalcitrant polymers owing to its stable aromatic structure and resistance to natural degradation. Although insect larvae such as mealworms and ...

Pseudomonas putida A (ATCC 12633) were encapsulated in Ca-alginate and their ability to degrade the quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs) tetradecylbenzyldimethylammonium chloride (C14BDMA), hexadecylbenzyldimethylammoniu...

ABSTRACT Chlorpyrifos is a widely used organophosphate pesticide with significant environmental impact. Lacticaseiobacillus rhamnosus GG has shown potential for degrading such pesticides. This study assessed its ability ...

Abstract Background Multi-drug-resistant spectrum of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) is frequently issue in wastewater of poultry industry, posing a major public hazard. Also, the incorporation of promising nano-s...

Chlorite dismutase (Cld) is a b-type hemecontaining enzymethat catalyzes the reduction of chlorite into chloride plus dioxygen. This enzyme has gained attention because it can be used in the development of bioremediation...

Muchos vegetales suelen expresar una serie de péptidos ricos en ácido glutámico y cisteína, denominados fitoquelatinas o péptidos y-EC (y-glutamilcisteína), cuyo nivel se incrementa cuando aquellos son expuestos a ...
