Journal ArticleDOI
Repression of Pseudomonas putida phenanthrene‐degrading activity by plant root extracts and exudates
TL;DR: It is shown that P. putida grows on root extracts and exudates as sole carbon and energy sources, and enhanced growth on root products may compensate for partial repression, because larger microbial populations are conducive to faster degradation rates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proliferation of Multidrug-Resistant New Delhi Metallo-β-lactamase Genes in Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plants in Northern China
TL;DR: NDM-1 genes prevailed through several treatment units (including disinfection by chlorination) in two WWTPs in northern China, raising the possibility of propagation to indigenous bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Research Priorities to Advance Eco-Responsible Nanotechnology
TL;DR: Critical research needs to advance this urgent priority to predict functional stability and chemistry of MNMs in the environment and to discern properties that increase their bioavailability, bioaccumulation, and toxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
Trading oxidation power for efficiency: differential inhibition of photo-generated hydroxyl radicals versus singlet oxygen.
TL;DR: The results underscore the importance of considering the effect of background constituents in the selection of photocatalysts and in the design of AOPs for emerging applications in tertiary treatment of wastewater effluent and disinfection of natural waters.
