    Bioremediation of copper-contaminated soils by bacteria

    Although copper (Cu) is an essential micronutrient for all living organisms, it can be toxic at low concentrations. Its beneficial effects are therefore only observed for a narrow range of concentrations. Anth...

    Bioaugmentation for In Situ Soil Remediation: How to Ensure the Success of Such a Process

    Among bioremediation techniques, bioaugmentation is certainly the less easy to control, but at the same time the one exhibiting the greatest potential for the soil cleaning-up. The main challenge for the succe...

    Microalgal cell immobilization for the long-term storage of the marine diatom Haslea ostrearia

    To preserve the characteristics of the marine diatom Haslea ostrearia during long term storage, particularly size and shape, the algal cells were immobilized in alginate beads and stored at 4 ∘C at reduced irradi...

    Optimisation of the cell release from immobilised cells of Bacillus simplex cultivated in culture media enriched with Cd2+: influence of Cd2+, inoculum size, culture medium and alginate beads characteristics

    Calcium alginate beads were used to entrap a Bacillus sp. that has the ability to biosorb cadmium. During the batch incubation of alginate beads in a `rich' or a `poor' liquid medium, cell release out of the bead...

    Fermentation of D-xylose by free and immobilized Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    With D-xylose (50 g l ) as sole carbon substrate, aerobic cultures of S. cerevisiae consumed significant amounts of sugar (26.4 g l ), producing 4.0 g xylitol l but no ethanol. In the presence of a mixture of ...
