Immobilization of lead(Ⅱ) and zinc(Ⅱ) onto glomalin-related soil protein (GRSP): Adsorption properties and interaction mechanisms

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022
Glomalin-related soil protein (GRSP), a microbial product that can be used as a bioflocculant, is critical to metal sequestration in the ecosystem. However, the relationship between GRSP and heavy metal has not been well explored.
