Living bacteria offer an ecological and cost-effective alternative to the classical physical and chemical techniques for the treatment of environmental contaminations. Although their increasing use in toxic metal removal, systematic studies on the influenc ...
The Model of Uptake with Instantaneous Adsorption and Efflux, MUIAE, describing and predicting the overall Cd uptake by the metal-resistant bacterium Cupriavidus metallidurans CH34, is presented. MUIAE takes into account different processes at the bacteria ...
In an effort to improve the understanding and prediction of Cd uptake by soil bacteria, adsorbed and intracellular Cd were determined in unpolluted and highly polluted model soil solutions within a concentration range spanning from 10-9 to 5 10-5 M of ca ...
Thirteen different commercial TiO2 powders with specific surface areas varying from 9 to 335 m/g and with isoelectric points (IEP) from 3 to 7.5 were investigated for their catalytic activity in E. coli inactivation. The TiO2 samples zeta potential, attenu ...
The present study aims to improve the understanding of the role of complexation and competition effects on Cd and Pb accumulation by the metal resistant bacterium Cupriavidus metallidurans largely used in bioremediation. Adsorbed and intracellular metal co ...
