ABSTRACT The use of microorganisms is an evolving method for the degradation of hydrocarbon contaminants. In this aim, halophilic hydrocarbon degrading bacteria were isolated from oil contaminated soil in Tunisia. A lipopeptide biosurfactant produced by Bacillus subtilis SPB1 was tested to increase diesel biodegradation along with co‐inoculation with ...

High organic loading is known to destabilize anaerobic digestion (AD). This study compared bioaugmentation and pH adjustment under increasing organic loading rate (OLR: 2.0, 4.0 and 6.0 gVS L−1 d−1), focusing on the responses of microbial structure ...

Uptake, metabolism, and bioremediation of neonicotinoid insecticides in soil–plant systems: A review
This review summarizes the uptake and metabolic transformation of neonicotinoid insecticides in plants, showing that some metabolites exhibit higher toxicity. We also critically assess promising bioremediation strategies using microbes and plant–microbe interactions to reduce residue contamination.

Effect of bioaugmentation on digestate metal concentrations in anaerobic digestion of sewage sludge.
This study examined the influence of bioaugmentation on metal concentrations (aluminum, cadmium, chromium, cobalt, copper, iron, lead, manganese, molybdenum, nickel and zinc) in anaerobically digested sewage sludge.

In this brief report, we propose a scenario in which bacterial volatile organic compound (BVOC)‐mediated communication with plants can be interpreted as a form of plant–microbe cooperation under heavy metal stress. Different VOCs are emitted depending on bacterial stress states, and VOCs from heavy metal‐stressed bacteria modulate plant defense ...

Autochthonous bioaugmentation and its possible application to oil spills [PDF]
Bioaugmentation for oil spills is a much more promising technique than is biostimulation. However, the effectiveness of bioaugmentation is variable, because the survival and the xenobiotic-degrading ability of introduced microorganisms are highly ...
