Microbiological characteristics оf cambisols from Western Balkan Mountains (Bulgaria)
Changes in microbial population density and basal soil respiration of Cambisols from Western Balkan Mountains due to the influence of vegetation cover (grassland, pine forest and beech forest) were studied, and their relations with soil properties were ...

This study demonstrates the feasibility of an underground closed‐loop thermal storage facility at a post‐mining site, intended for seasonal heat energy storage. Its principal design shows water flow directions in winter and summer (1, 2), heat pumps (3), an upper water reservoir (4), and connecting pipes (5).

Antibacterial Activity of Heteropolytungstates Against Proteus mirabilis
We investigated the in vitro antibacterial activity of several heteropolytungstates against P. mirabilis, a drug‐resistant pathogen. All tested polyanions inhibited bacterial growth, with the Preyssler–Pope–Jeannin polyanion P5W30 exhibiting the highest activity (MIC = 0.78 mg/mL).

Characteristics of Wetting-Induced Bacteriophage Blooms in Biological Soil Crust
Biological soil crusts (biocrusts) are photosynthetic “hot spots” in deserts and cover ∼12% of the Earth’s terrestrial surface, and yet they face an uncertain future given expected shifts in rainfall events.

Air pollution exposure during training impairs performance in Thoroughbred racehorses
Abstract Background Ambient air pollution contributes substantially to human morbidity and mortality, and athletes are recognised as a particularly vulnerable group. However, little is known about the impact of air pollution on equine athletes. Objectives To explore the relationship between air pollution exposure during the pre‐competition training ...

The distribution and diversity of actinomycetes in soil fractions [PDF]
The results presented were concerned with the survival of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) (pll673) inoculated into soil microcosms, which were destructively fractionated so that the total propagules and spore counts could be determined in each of the ...

Membrane separation provides a green and scalable route for oligosaccharide purification. This review summarizes the complementary roles of microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, and reverse osmosis, with emphasis on membrane selection, optimization of operating conditions, fouling control, and integrated cascade design for improving purity,
