Microbial communities associated with uranium in-situ recovery mining process are related to acid mine drainage assemblages

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Pierre Rossi, Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Thomas Coral

A large fraction (47%) of the world's uranium is mined by a technique called “In Situ Recovery” (ISR). This mining technique involves the injection of a leaching fluid (acidic or alkaline) into a uranium-bearing aquifer and the pumping of the resulting sol ...

Effect of μM Fe addition, mild heat and solar UV on sulfate radical-mediated inactivation of bacteria, viruses, and micropollutant degradation in water

Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, César Pulgarin, Dominique Grandjean, Stefanos Giannakis, Miloch Marjanovic

In this work, solar disinfection (SODIS) was enhanced by moderate addition of Fe and sodium perox- ydisulfate (PDS), under solar light. A systematic assessment of the activating factors was performed, firstly isolated, then in pairs and concluded in the co ...

Analysis of antibiotic multi-resistant bacteria and resistance genes in the effluent of an intensive shrimp farm (Long An, Vietnam)

Pierre Rossi, Luiz Felippe De Alencastro

In Vietnam, intensive shrimp farms heavily rely on a wide variety of antibiotics (ABs) to treat animals or prevent disease outbreak. Potential for the emergence of multi-resistant bacteria is high, with the concomitant contamination of adjacent natural aqu ...
