Interrelationship of hydrology, microbial colonisation and hydrometallurgy in a simulated chalcopyrite heap leach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 104-115).Chalcopyrite is the most abundant primary copper sulphide mineral found worldwide. As copper grades of ores available for extraction decrease, heap bioleaching is gaining interest as a potential ...

Real‐time quality and safety monitoring of fruit juice using paper‐based platform

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, Volume 3, Issue 1, Page 140-162, March 2026.
Schematic illustration of a paper‐based biosensor for rapid detection of fruit juice spoilage. Abstract Food spoilage and safety concerns still remain critically challenging within the fruit juice industry, especially as conventional detection methods, though precise, are often too time‐consuming, costly, and reliant on centralized laboratories.

Characteristics of an Iron-Reducing, Moderately Acidophilic Actinobacterium Isolated from Pyritic Mine Waste, and Its Potential Role in Mitigating Mineral Dissolution in Mineral Tailings Deposits

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
Reactive pyritic mine tailings can be populated by chemolithotrophic prokaryotes that enhance the solubilities of many metals, though iron-reducing heterotrophic microorganisms can inhibit the environmental risk posed by tailings by promoting processes ...

Quorum Sensing of Acidophiles: A Communication System in Microorganisms

open access: yes, 2021
Communication is important for organisms living in nature. Quorum sensing system (QS) are intercellular communication systems that promote the sociality of microbes. Microorganisms could promote cell-to-cell cooperation and population density to adapt to the changing environment through QS-mediated regulation that is dependent on the secretion and the ...
