The pristine points of zero charge (PZC) and isoelectric points (IEP) of metal oxides and IEP
of other materials from the recent literature, and a few older results (overlooked in previous …

Flotation of lithium micas and especially lepidolite is becoming a matter of increasing
interest, as a result of the increased demand in lithium for the battery and other sectors of …

The extensive use of fluoroquinolones (FQs) antibiotics has resulted in their prevalence and
subsequent antibiotic resistance, and then FQs have received increasing attention as one of …

Biotite dissolution rates were determined at 25° C, at pH 2–6, and as a function of mineral
composition, grain size, and aqueous organic ligand concentration. Rates were measured …

Metal cations have great effects on the flotation of silicate minerals whereas the interaction
mechanism is unclear. Single mineral flotation demonstrated that the recovery of biotite rose …

Mineral surfaces are known for their ability to adsorb enzymes, but their effects on enzyme
activity are not well studied. This study explores the extent to which interaction with primary …

Developing advanced materials with efficient antibacterial properties to guarantee human
health protection is urgent. This study aimed to evaluate the antibacterial performance of …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi play an important role in organic matter (OM) stabilization
in Fe ore tailings for eco-engineered soil formation. However, little has been understood …

Microorganisms are essential agents of Earth's soil weathering engine who help transform
primary rock-forming minerals into soils. Mycorrhizal fungi, with their vast filamentous …

Abstract In the Sri Lankan Highlands erosion and chemical weathering rates are among the
lowest for global mountain denudation. In this tropical humid setting, highly weathered deep …
