Genome-wide gene expression changes of Pseudomonas veronii 1YdBTEX2 during bioaugmentation in polluted soils.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the specific and different cellular reactions of an inoculant for bio-augmentation during adaptation, growth and survival in natural clean and contaminated non-sterile soils.

Dovilė Gimžauskaitė,Andrius Tamošiūnas,Simona Tučkutė,Diana Meilutytė-Lukauskienė,Mindaugas Aikas,Rolandas Uscila,Justas Samosionokas +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, thermal air and water vapour plasmas were used to clean contaminated soil contaminated by organochlorine pesticides (mainly DDT) for effective pest control.
Journal ArticleDOI
Langmuir monolayers as models of the lipid matrix of cyanobacterial thylakoid membranes
TL;DR: In this article , the authors applied Langmuir monolayers formed by the main lipids of cyanobacterial membranes: monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (MGDG), digalacto-lyricl glycerol(DGDG), sulfoquinovosyldehyde-SQDG, and phosphatidylglycerols (PG), as versatile models of thylakoid membranes.
Book ChapterDOI
Microbial degradation of herbicides in contaminated soils by following computational approaches
TL;DR: In this paper , the integration of algorithm-based approaches with bioremediation strategies against herbicide pollution is discussed, which is considered a promising method for the design of effective solutions for cleaning the environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interactions of fungal phospholipase Lecitase ultra with phospholipid Langmuir monolayers – Search for substrate specificity and structural factors affecting the activity of the enzyme
TL;DR: In this paper, a representative soil extracellular PLA1 was used as a representative and applied Lecitase ultra which is a commercially available hybrid enzyme of PLA1 activity.

Pesticide Exposure, Safety Issues, and Risk Assessment Indicators
TL;DR: New tools or techniques with greater reliability than those already existing are needed to predict the potential hazards of pesticides and thus contribute to reduction of the adverse effects on human health and the environment.
Book ChapterDOI
The SCS/ARS/CES pesticide properties database for environmental decision-making.
TL;DR: This work has compiled the most complete collection of these properties available, using others' compilations but verifying values from the primary literature in many cases, and suggests a "Selected Value" which it believes to be the best available.
Book
Handbook of Environmental Fate and Exposure Data: For Organic Chemicals, Volume III Pesticides
TL;DR: The Environmental Fate and Exposure of Organic Chemicals provides relevant facts on how individual chemicals behave in the environment and how humans and environmental organisms are exposed to the chemicals during their production, rise, transport, and disposal.

Bioremediation approaches for organic pollutants: a critical perspective
Mallavarapu Megharaj,Balasubramanian Ramakrishnan,Balasubramanian Ramakrishnan,Balasubramanian Ramakrishnan,Kadiyala Venkateswarlu,Kadiyala Venkateswarlu,Kadiyala Venkateswarlu,N. Sethunathan,Ravi Naidu,Ravi Naidu +9 more
TL;DR: This review selectively examines and provides a critical view on the knowledge gaps and limitations in field application strategies, approaches such as composting, electrobioremediation and microbe-assisted phytoremediating, and the use of probes and assays for monitoring and testing the efficacy of bioremediations of polluted sites.
