Environmental pollution is one of the main challenges faced by humanity. By their ubiquity
and vast range of metabolic capabilities, microorganisms are affected by pollution with …

Nitrification and denitrification play a vital role in the conversion of fixed nitrogenous
compounds to nitrogen gas. In anoxic environments, nitrogen loss is attributed to autotropic …

Manganese oxide (MnOx) mediated ammonium (NH 4+) oxidation in wetlands is receiving
increased interest; however, the biochemical mechanisms of this process are vague due to …

Deep reservoirs vary in their hydrostatic pressure owing to artificial water level control. The
potential migration of phosphorus (P) in reservoir sediments raises the risk of harmful algal …

Pre-enriching electroactive microbes (EAM) capable of respiration using solid terminal
electron acceptors (TEA) is a prospective strategy that promotes faster start-up of bioanodes …

Silver ions (Ag+) directly emitted from industrial sources or released from manufactured Ag
nanoparticles (AgNPs) in biosolid-amended soils have raised concern about the risk to …

Abstract PCR Single-Strand Conformation Polymorphism is a method used to identify and
detect mutations and is now well known for its many applications on living beings. This …

Constructed wetlands (CWs) are widely used to treat secondary effluent. However,
simultaneously removing ammonia (NH4+-N) and nitrate (NO3−–N) is challenging because …

Iron speciation in soils is influenced largely by its redox state, but the extent of and controls
on Fe speciation during recurrent reduction and oxidation events are not fully understood …

Previous studies have reported the role of some species of acidophilic bacteria in
accelerating the dissolution of goethite under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. This has …
