Journal ArticleDOI
Chelating Properties of Extracellular Polysaccharides from Chlorella spp.
TL;DR: The differences in metal-complexing capacity observed for dissolved polysaccharides obtained from various Chlorella species is attributable to differences in the composition of the poly Saccharides, notably the uronic acids content.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
Removal of chemical and microbiological contaminants from domestic greywater using a recycled vertical flow bioreactor (RVFB)
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report on the removal of chemical contaminants, indicator organisms, and opportunistic pathogens from domestic greywater using the recycled vertical flow bioreactor (RVFB) system.
Book ChapterDOI
32 Absorption and Adsorption of Heavy Metals by Microalgae
TL;DR: The potential of prokaryotic and eukaryotic microalgae living cells or their dead cell biomass in comparison to currently available physicochemical processes aimed at removing toxic heavy metals is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A survey of the microbial community in the rhizosphere of two dominant shrubs of the Negev Desert highlands, Zygophyllum dumosum (Zygophyllaceae) and Atriplex halimus (Amaranthaceae), using cultivation-dependent and cultivation-independent methods

TL;DR: A snapshot of the microbial communities in the Negev Desert, giving an insight in its natural state, identified a number of PGPB, both epiphytes and endophytes, which fix nitrogen, chelate iron, solubilize phosphate, and secrete cellulase, thereby providing a profile of the microbiomes that support the growth of two desert perennials.
