Microbially-induced Carbonate Precipitation for Immobilization of Toxic Metals [PDF]
Rapid urbanization and industrialization resulting from growing populations contribute to environmental pollution by toxic metals and radionuclides which pose a threat to the environment and to human health.

Switchable or transient formation and dissociation of the phase‐separated DNA microdroplets generated by metal ions or aptamer‐ligand complexes crosslinking Y‐shaped DNA frameworks and dynamically separated by counter ligands eliminating the bridging metal ions or biocatalysts degrading the aptamer‐ligand complexes, are introduced.

An Integrated Assessment of European Soil Health and Restoration Potential
ABSTRACT Soils host a significant proportion of biodiversity on Earth providing ecosystem functions vital to human well‐being, making it imperative to include them and their ecological features when addressing sustainability goals. We performed a comprehensive assessment of soil health across Europe by explicitly integrating biotic and abiotic ...

Abstract Magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) are increasingly recognized as an emerging threat to ecosystems and human health, yet their mass concentrations and sources in urban atmosphere remain poorly characterized. Here, we developed a robust methodology for the extraction, quantification, and source apportionment of magnetic NPs in urban PM2.5.

Global patterns in culturable soil yeast diversity
Summary: Yeasts, broadly defined as unicellular fungi, fulfill essential roles in soil ecosystems as decomposers and nutrition sources for fellow soil-dwellers. Broad-scale investigations of soil yeasts pose a methodological challenge as metagenomics are

Bryophyte‐targeted primers captured a longer DNA fragment, moving beyond the indirect “bycatch” approach using vascular plant primers. This improved detection and recovered greater bryophyte diversity, with substantial overlap with taxa obtained through bycatch.
