    Geogenic and anthropogenic interactions at a former Sb mine: environmental impacts of As and Sb

    Mining activities are acknowledged to introduce contaminants into localised environments and cause wider spread diffuse pollution. The concentration, distribution and fate of arsenic (As) and antimony (Sb) wer...

    Protocol for the Application of Bioluminescence Full-Cell Bioreporters for Monitoring of Terrestrial Bioremediation

    Microbial full-scale bioreporters are associated with a variety of names that include biosensors, bio-indicators and bio-reactive agents. The role of such microbial agents is to respond to the bioavailable fra...

    Deployment of Microbial Biosensors to Assess the Performance of Ameliorants in Metal-Contaminated Soils

    The remediation of metal-impacted soils requires either the enhanced mobility (and capture) of the target analytes or their effective complexation/immobilisation. In this study, a range of ameliorants (activat...

    Application of Microbial Biosensors to Complement Geochemical Characterisation: a Case Study in Northern China

    There are significant concerns about the impact of heavy metal contamination in soils as a consequence of urbanisation and industrialisation in develo** countries. Routine chemical analysis of soils is used ...

    Cu and Ni Mobility and Bioavailability in Sequentially Conditioned Soils

    The potential ecological hazard of metals in soils may be measured directly using a combination of chemical and biological techniques or estimated using appropriate ecological models. Terrestrial ecotoxicity t...

    The Role of Decision Support for Bioremediation Strategies, Exemplified by Hydrocarbons for In Site and Ex Situ Procedures

    Despite the widespread availability of state-of-the-art biological techniques, remediation practitioners have been slow to adopt these technologies to assist in designing or indeed monitoring remediation strat...

    Investigating the specificity of regulators of degradation of hydrocarbons and hydrocarbon-based compounds using structure-activity relationships

    Microbial biosensors which have genes forbioluminescence coupled to genes that controlhydrocarbon degradation pathways can be used asreporters on the specificity of regulation of thosepathways. Structure-activ...
