Performance evaluation of nanotubular halloysites from weathered pegmatites in removing heavy metals from water through novel artificial intelligence-based models and human-based optimization algorithm.

The efforts of this study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of the nanotubular halloysites in weathered pegmatites (NaHWP) for removing heavy metals (i.e., Cd, Pb) from water.

Streptomyces vietnamensis sp. nov., a streptomycete with violet blue diffusible pigment isolated from soil in Vietnam.

An actinomycete, designated strain GIMV4.0001(T), was isolated from a forest soil sample in Vietnam. It produced white aerial mycelium and violet-blue diffusible pigment on Gause's synthetic agar.
