Phytoextraction makes use of trace element-accumulating plants that concentrate the
pollutants in their tissues. Pollutants can be then removed by harvesting plants. The success …

Simple Summary The antimicrobial properties of Ag and Cu nanoparticles, their mixtures
and their alloys, are reviewed. Abstract Microbes, including bacteria and fungi, easily form …

This paper reviews the factors affecting trace metal behaviour in estuarine and riverine
floodplain soils and sediments. Spatial occurrence of processes affecting metal mobility and …

Microbial community structure, potential microbial activity and As resistance were affected by
arsenic (As), chromium (Cr) and copper (Cu) contamination in soils of abandoned wood …

The crude processing of electronic waste (e-waste) has led to serious contamination in soils.
While microorganisms may play a key role in remediation of the contaminated soils, the …

Copper is one of the most abundant heavy metals present in swine manure. In this study, a
laboratory-scale aerobic composting system was amended with Cu at three levels (0, 200 …

The abundance of metal-tolerant populations among culturable bacterial communities in
arable soils of different texture and barren spoil of a former silver mine was determined. In …
