Bioremediation of polluted soils with pesticides using microorganisms - situation in Colombia
TL;DR: The analysis of the scientific literature on the subject of bioremediation in Latin America countries shows that due to the excessive and uncontrolled use of pesticides in agriculture, there are negative impacts on the environment, mainly on soil and water, as well as on human health as mentioned in this paper .

Suryapratap Ray Mr.,Miss. Sonia +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a review article put forward a detailed discussion on phytoremediation, where it emphasised the importance of PHYOREmediation of pesticide contaminated soil, and the scope of this article covers the basics of carbamate pesticides (Carbofuran), sources of contamination, ecosystems that are being affected and the rhizosphere as the active site of remediation.

Adaptation of micro- and metafauna in activated sludge with microbial augmentation to shock loading with amaranth
TL;DR: In this article , the authors studied the adaptation mechanisms of the communities of micro- and metafauna in activated sludge towards the shock loading of amaranth (200 mg/L) with and without the addition of Pseudomonas aureofaciens AP-9 as a bioaugmentation agent.

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.

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.

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.
