Bio-nanotechnology offers eco-friendly processes for the synthesis of stable nanoparticles (NPs). We hypothesized that microorganisms isolated from the root nodules of leguminous plants would biosynthesize silver (Ag) bio-nanoparticles. Clover root nodules enriched with nutrient broth (NB) produced four distinct colonies on NA plates. Microbial colonies were purified by repeated streaking and designated as SS6, SS7, SS8, and SS9 for identification using 16S rRNA sequencing. Four species of Pseudomonas were identified with a similarity score of over 99% using the EZ Taxon search engine, and tes

Abstract:
Microbial biofilms are collections of grouped microbial cells enmeshed in an extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) matrix that they have self-assembled. Biofilms are resistant to harsh environments and can serve as &quot;protective clothing&quot; for bacteria by shielding them from ultraviolet (UV) radiation, extreme temperatures, pH ranges, high salinity, high pressure, inadequate nutrition, antibiotics, etc. Research on biofilms in recent years has mostly concentrated on biofilm-associated illnesses and methods for eradicating microbial biofilms.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Mechanisms for Fe(III) oxide reduction were investigated in Geothrix fermentans, a dissimilatory Fe(III)-reducing microorganism found within the Fe(III) reduction zone of subsurface environments. Culture filtrates of G. fermentans stimulated the reduction of poorly crystalline Fe(III) oxide by washed cell suspensions, suggesting that G. fermentans released one or more extracellular compounds that promoted Fe(III) oxide reduction. In order to determine if G. fermentans released electron-shuttling compounds, poorly crystalline Fe(III) oxide was incorporated into microporous alginate bea

Abstract:
To identify the cellular forms that are responsible for the synthesis of pullulan produced by Aureobasidium pullulans, we performed cytochemical and ultrastructural localizations of glucan in the cellular forms of this microorganism (blastospores and resting forms). Growth conditions, cell populations, and pullulan production were studied concurrently. Our results are consistent with a model in which the resting forms (swollen cells and chlamydospores) might be primarily involved in this extracellular polysaccharide elaboration. At the cellular level, pullulan production could be the result of

Abstract:
Biofilm plays an important role in controlling the transport of colloids in a porous media. Biofilms are formed when micro-organisms come in contact with substrates, and are able to attach and grow with availability of nutrients. The microorganisms get embedded in a matrix of the substrate and extracellular polymeric substances which are responsible for the morphology, physico-chemical properties, structure and coherence of the biofilm. In this study, the effect of biofilm and its aging on colloid removal was studied on a glass bead column. Oocysts, polystyrene microspheres and inorganic collo

Climate warming is a hot environmental issue of global concern. As one of the major methane sinks, the process of methane oxidation coupled with denitrification (MOD) reduces the environmental impact brought by the greenhouse effect and water eutrophication. In addition, as an energy substance, methane can also improve its economic value by transforming into other liquid chemicals. Previous studies on the mechanism of the process have mainly focused on the extracellular electron transfer between species.
