Journal ArticleDOI
Degradation of pyrene by indigenous fungi from a former gasworks site
Ambujom Saraswathy,Rolf Hallberg +1 more
TL;DR: Indigenous fungi isolated from soil of a former gasworks site were investigated in submerged cultures with pyrene as the sole carbon source for the first time, and may be ideal candidates for effective bioremediation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arsenicicoccus bolidensis gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel actinomycete isolated from contaminated lake sediment
Matthew D. Collins,Joyanto Routh,Ambujom Saraswathy,Paul A. Lawson,Peter Schumann,Christina Welinder-Olsson,Enevold Falsen +6 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that the unknown bacterium originating from lake sediment be classified as a new genus and species, Arsenicicoccus bolidensis gen. nov., sp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arsenic remobilization from sediments contaminated with mine tailings near the Adak mine in Västerbotten district (northern Sweden)
TL;DR: In this paper, microcosm experiments indicate that microorganisms are capable of surviving in As-rich sediments and reduce As(V) to As(III) species in the oxic surface and ground water samples.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arsenicicoccus bolidensis a novel arsenic reducing actinomycete in contaminated sediments near the Adak mine (northern Sweden): impact on water chemistry.
TL;DR: Several microorganisms were isolated from the enrichment cultures that were involved in As cycling, including Arsenicicicoccus bolidensis - a novel gram-positive, facultatively anaerobic, coccus-shaped actinomycete, which actively reduced As(V) to As(III) in aqueous media.
Book ChapterDOI
Arsenic reduction by indigenous bacteria in shallow aquifers from Ambikanagar, West Bengal, India
TL;DR: It is confirmed that microorganisms may result in remobilization of As from sediments, and impact groundwater treatment, and a zero-order model fits the As(V) reduction data.
