In the environment, bacteria sense aromatic pollutants, migrate toward them, adapt to toxicity, and deploy specialized uptake and catabolic systems. Genomic plasticity, metabolic versatility and division of labor within populations together aid in the degradation of persistent aromatics, highlights that biodegradation is driven by various eco ...

Recent Developments in Sustainable Solubilization
We highlight several recent developments in sustainable solubilization. Particular attention is given to the use of bio‐based solvents derived from renewable resources, the strategic use of water as a solvent, and alternative, sustainable solubilizers such as hydrotropes.

Biological Degradation of Phthalates: From Bioremediation to Plastic Waste Valorization
Phthalic acid isomers play a key role in the plastics industry, but pose significant environmental and health concerns. This review explores the microbial biodegradation of phthalates and their esters, focusing on bacterial enzymes, catabolic pathways, and cellular uptake mechanisms of phthalates.

Simultaneous Removal of Lindane, Lead and Cadmium from Soils by Rhamnolipids Combined with Citric Acid. [PDF]
This study investigated the performance of rhamnolipids-citric acid mixed agents in simultaneous desorption of lindane and heavy metals from soils. The capacity of the mixed agents to solubilize lindane, lead and cadmium in aqueous solution was also ...

Methods for eradication of the biofilms formed by opportunistic pathogens using novel techniques – A review [PDF]
The inconvenient environmental conditions force microorganisms to colonize either abiotic surfaces or animal and plant tissues and, therefore, form more resistant structures – biofilms.

Isolation and Partial Characterization of a Biosurfactant Produced by Pseudomonas Aeruginosa PAVIJ from Contaminated Soil [PDF]
Biosurfactant compounds are produced by microorganisms. These isolates reduced surface tension both in aqueous solutions and hydrocarbon mixtures. The objective of this study was to isolate and characterize the surface active components from the crude ...
