Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Malin Bomberg"
- Malin Bomberg's recent research focuses on the microbial communities and metabolic profiles in extreme environments, particularly within mining operations and deep terrestrial subsurface ecosystems, aiming to understand their implications for both ecology and industry.
- Key findings include the seasonal variations in microbial communities at the Boliden Kevitsa mine in Finland and the effects of groundwater composition on bacterial communities and metabolites in deep subsurface environments, highlighting the complexity of microbial interactions and their roles in mineral processing.
- Bomberg has developed innovative methodologies for microbial DNA extraction from complex samples using anionic nanocellulose and explored the functionality of biofilms forming on rock surfaces in deep oligotrophic environments, contributing to a deeper understanding of subsurface microbial dynamics and their potential applications in biogeochemical processes.
