Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of simulated rhizodeposition on the relative abundance of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbon catabolic genes in a contaminated soil
TL;DR: It is suggested that rhizodeposition from phenolic releasers contributes to the fortuitous (but not selective) proliferation of PAH degraders, which may enhance phytoremediation.
Journal ArticleDOI
1,4-Dioxane Biodegradation by Mycobacterium dioxanotrophicus PH-06 Is Associated with a Group-6 Soluble Di-Iron Monooxygenase
TL;DR: A novel group-6 propane monooxygenase gene cluster (prmABCD) is identified in Mycobacterium dioxanotrophicus PH-06, which is a bacterium with superior dioxane degradation kinetics compared with CB1190.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced biofilm penetration for microbial control by polyvalent phages conjugated with magnetic colloidal nanoparticle clusters (CNCs)
Ling-Li Li,Pingfeng Yu,Xifan Wang,Sheng-Song Yu,Jacques Mathieu,Han-Qing Yu,Pedro J. J. Alvarez +6 more
TL;DR: The conjugation approach could extend the application of phages for microbial control by enhancing their delivery to relatively inaccessible locations within biofilms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biostimulation of anaerobic BTEX biodegradation under fermentative methanogenic conditions at source-zone groundwater contaminated with a biodiesel blend (B20)
Débora Toledo Ramos,Marcio Luis Busi da Silva,Helen Simone Chiaranda,Pedro J. J. Alvarez,Henry Xavier Corseuil +4 more
TL;DR: Apparently, biostimulation fortuitously enhanced the growth of putative anaerobic BTEX degraders and associated commensal microorganisms that consume acetate and H2, and enhance the thermodynamic feasibility of BTEX fermentation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photocatalytic generation of multiple ROS types using low-temperature crystallized anodic TiO2 nanotube arrays
Yulong Liao,Jonathon Brame,Wenxiu Que,Zongming Xiu,Haixia Xie,Qilin Li,Marian Fabian,Pedro J. J. Alvarez +7 more
TL;DR: Variation of the NT crystallization parameters enables control of structural and morphological properties so that TiO₂-NTs can be optimized for scale-up and for specific treatment scenarios.
