The current investigation designed to estimate the bioremediation potential of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) and Ag-nanoparticles. Tube well and HIT water comprising Mn and Fe above recommended values were used as treatments while tap water irrigation was treated as control. The HIT water showed 24, 200, and 64.11% higher content of Na, K Ca over control. Seeds were sterilized in 95% ethanol and soaked for 3 h before sowing in 73 h old culture of (Kx574858) @ 10 cells/ml. Phytotoxic effect of Fe and Mn reduce plant biomass and suppress photosynthetic activity indicates. The carotenoids, proline, and proline activity were 366, 450, and 678% higher in tube well water with combined PGPR and Ag-nanoparticles treatments. was more effective than Ag-nanoparticles to reduce oxidative stress with higher production of carotenoids, flavonoids, proline content, and enzyme SOD and CAT activities in HIT water. It is contingent that the high Mn and Fe bearing waste water enhance PGPR bioremediation potential to reduce metal stress in plants with synergistic action of PGPR and organic matter to alleviate oxidative stresses under metal stress. The residual effect of on organic matter content of the rhizosphere soil and germination rate was higher for L.

Arctic ecosystems are affected by accelerated warming as well as the intensification of the hydrologic cycle, yet understanding of the impacts of compound climate extremes (e.g., simultaneous extreme heat and rainfall) remains limited, despite their high potential to alter ecosystems.

Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) enhances anaerobic digestion by facilitating electron exchange between electroactive bacteria and methanogenic archaea. While Geobacter species are recognized for donating electrons to methanogens via DIET, they are rarely detected in mixed microbial communities. This study examined various non-electrode biological carriers (zeolite, carbon cloth, activated carbon and biochar) to promote Geobacter cultivation under anaerobic conditions and identify pivotal factors influencing their symbiosis with methanogens.

The microalgal-bacterial consortium (MBC) system is recognized as an advanced approach for nitrogen and phosphorus removal in wastewater treatment. However, the influence of microalgae on bacterial community dynamics and niche differentiation across varying seasonal conditions remains unexplored. In this study, we established a pilot-scale continuous-flow MBC system to disentangle, for the first time, the impact of microalgae on seasonal bacterial community succession by conducting monthly time-series sampling over a full seasonal cycle.

A series of core-shell In/H-Beta@Ce catalysts were synthesized by encapsulating In/H-Beta within an amorphous CeO shell and then evaluated for the selective catalytic reduction of NO by CH (CH-SCR) under challenging conditions with SO and HO. IB@Ce-2 achieved 57.7 % NO conversion at 625°C, representing a 23.

Toxicological test methods generate raw data and provide instructions on how to use these to determine a final outcome such as a classification of test compounds as hits or non-hits. The data processing pipeline provided in the test method description is often highly complex. Usually, multiple layers of data, ranging from a machine-generated output to the final hit definition, are considered.
