Revisiting the Effectiveness of Nitrification Inhibitors Under Different Soil Moisture Conditions and Mineral Nitrogen Extraction Methods: Further Experimental Work Considering the Pasda et al. (2023) Opinion Paper

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In a recent opinion article, Pasda et al. indicated that the findings from our previous study (Guo et al.) were misleading due to the inappropriateness of the experimental work. The mentioned study focused on the effectiveness of four nitrification inhibitors (NIs) in reducing nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions as affected by temperature

Environmental aspects of PAH biodegradation

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 1995
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous pollutants, some of which are on the US Environmental Protection Agency priority pollutant list. Consequently, timely clean-up of contaminated sites is important. The lower-mol-wt PAHs are amenable to bioremediation; however, higher-mol-wt PAHs seem to be recalcitrant to microbial degradation.

Environmental biodegradation of polyethylene

Polymer Degradation and Stability, 2003
The degradation of a commercial environmentally degradable polyethylene was investigated in two stages. Firstly by abiotic oxidation in an air oven to simulate the effect of the compost environment and secondly in the presence of selected microorganisms.

Biodegradation of toxic and environmental pollutants

Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 1991
Organic chemicals that are toxic to humans and to the environment can be transformed and metabolized by a variety of microorganisms. Such chemicals include trichloroethylene, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, toluene, phenols, chlorinated phenols, polychlorinated biphenyls and polyaromatic hydrocarbons. This review focuses on some of the most important

Fabrication of Environmentally Biodegradable Lignin Nanoparticles

ChemPhysChem, 2012
AbstractWe developed a method for the fabrication of novel biodegradable nanoparticles (NPs) from lignin which are apparently non‐toxic for microalgae and yeast. We compare two alternative methods for the synthesis of lignin NPs which result in particles of very different stability upon change of pH.
