Actinorhizal plants and Frankiaceae: The overlooked future of phytoremediation
Actinorhizal plants, in symbiosis with Frankiaceae bacterial endosymbionts, possess traits beneficial for bioremediation. These plants can thrive in harsh conditions, such as high salinity and metal pollution, with their resilience enhanced by Frankiaceae.

Sampling and Analysis for Polychlorinated Naphthalenes in the Environment
Abstract Soil, sediment, biota, 24-hr integrated water, and 2 consecutive 24-hr integrated air samples were collected at several geographic sites, extracted, cleaned up, and analyzed for polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCNs). Analysis by quadrupole gas-liquid chromatography /mass spectrometry / computer (GLC / MS / COMP), using multiple ...
