Low molecular weight chelators and phenolic compounds isolated from wood decay fungi and their role in the fungal biodegradation of wood

TLDR
A review of information related to low molecular weight metal chelators isolated from wood decay fungi is presented in this paper, where the presence of the chelator in wood degraded by G. trabeum has been demonstrated by ELISA and TEM immunolabelling studies.

Advanced Oxidation Processes for Organic Contaminant Destruction Based on the Fenton Reaction and Related Chemistry

TL;DR: In this paper, the complex mechanisms of Fenton and Fenton-like reactions and the important factors influencing these reactions, from both a fundamental and practical perspective, in applications to water and soil treatment, are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Potential applications of oxidative enzymes and phenoloxidase-like compounds in wastewater and soil treatment: a review

TL;DR: Immobilization of oxidative enzymes on porous ceramic supports or resins did not adversely affect their stability and showed a good potential for degradation of environment persistent aromatics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Perspectives of plant-associated microbes in heavy metal phytoremediation.

TL;DR: How such processes influence heavy metal uptake through various biogeochemical processes including translocation, transformation, chelation, immobilization, solubilization, precipitation, volatilization and complexation of heavy metals ultimately facilitating phytoremediation is illustrated.

Degradation of cellulose by basidiomycetous fungi.

TL;DR: The efficiency and regulation of cellulose degradation differs among wood-rotting, litter-decomposing, mycorrhizal or plant pathogenic fungi and yeasts due to the different roles of cellulOSE degradation in the physiology and ecology of the individual groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of terrestrially derived organic carbon in the coastal ocean: A changing paradigm and the priming effect

TL;DR: The origin of vascular plants, the major component of TerrOC, and how their appearance affected the overall cycling of OC on land are considered, and priming is in fact an important process that needs to be incorporated into global carbon models in the context of climate change.

Universal chemical assay for the detection and determination of siderophores

TL;DR: The universal method to detect and determine siderophores was developed by using their high affinity for iron(III) and was successfully used to screen mutants in the iron uptake system of two Rhizobium meliloti strains, DM5 and 1021.

Role of free radicals and catalytic metal ions in human disease: an overview.

TL;DR: The chapter discusses the metabolism of transition metals, such as iron and copper, and the chelation therapy that is an approach to site-specific antioxidant protection.

Ferrozine---a new spectrophotometric reagent for iron

TL;DR: The ferroin group has been known to react as bidentate ligands with certain metal ions such as ferrous, cuprous, and cobaltous, to give colored complex species.

The catalytic decomposition of hydrogen peroxide by iron salts

TL;DR: Wansbrough-Jones as discussed by the authors gave the manuscript of this paper to Professor Sir William Pope, but the final revision for the press had not been made and in its original from the paper was not suitable for publication in an English journal; but since, Professor Haber had considered carefully how he wished to present the results embodied in it, the form and sequence of the paper remain unmodified.
