1. Cocoa Agro-Industrial Residue (Theobroma cacao) as Inducer of the Production of Fungal Laccase and Kojic Acid for Application in the Biodegradation of 17-α-Ethinylestradiol
Due to the ability to catalyze the oxidation of several substrates, the enzyme laccase has been used in several applications, among them the bioremediation of emerging pollutants. This work evaluate the capacity of the cocoa agro-industrial residue to induce the production of Pycnoporus sanguineus laccase and to apply the enzymatic extract in the biodegradat

2. Biodegradation of the Pyrethroid Pesticide Esfenvalerate by a Bacterial Consortium Isolated from Brazilian Savannah
New biocatalysts for bioremediation techniques are necessary nowadays. Therefore, a bacterial consortium isolated from Brazilian Savannah was employed for biodegradation of 100 mg L-1 esfenvalerate in liquid culture medium. The bacterial consortium (Lysinibacillus xylanilyticus CBMAI2085, Bacillus cereus CBMAI2067, Lysinibacillus sp. CBMAI2051 and Bacillus s

3. Phenotypic Characterization and Synthesis of Extracellular Catecholase from a Newly Isolated Bacterium Pseudomonas sp. BSC-6
Abstract Catecholase (EC 1.10.3.1), an oxidoreductase enzyme is a key member of polyphenol oxidase family which catalyze the degradation of catechol. This enzyme possesses vast applications in diverse areas and is found in bacteria, fungi, mushrooms, higher plants, arthropods, amphibians and mammals. Catechol, a phenolic compound, is used as a starting mate

4. BIORREMEDIAÇÃO DE EFLUENTES POR MEIO DA APLICAÇÃO DE MICROALGAS - UMA REVISÃO
National industrial effluent remediation strategies are largely outdated, which makes these processes costly and at the same time inefficient. Among the most worrying compounds are heavy metals, which have bioaccumulative and toxic characteristics to living beings. In addition to these, high nutrient loads constitute a huge environmental problem, since the d

5. Isolation and characterization of hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria from gas station leaking-contaminated groundwater in the Southern Amazon, Brazil
Resumo Vinte e três linhagens bacterianas degradadoras de hidrocarbonetos foram isoladas de água subterrânea contaminada por vazamento em posto de combustível no sul da Amazônia, Brasil. Com base na habilidade de degradar hidrocarbonetos (diesel, hexadecano, benzeno, tolueno e xileno), duas linhagens foram selecionadas para estudos posteriores. A amplif

6. KINETICS OF THE BIODEGRADATION OF MONOAROMATICS BY Pseudomonas aeruginosa
ABSTRACT Water contamination by monoaromatic compounds has risen throughout time, which leads to the necessity of developing new water treatment technology, capable of minimizing their negative effect on the environment. In this context, biological processes present themselves as a solution to the processes of extraction. Bioremediation makes use of microbia

7. Biosurfactant Production by Bacillus strains isolated from sugar cane mill wastewaters
Abstract Biosurfactants possess diverse chemical properties and provide important characteristics to the producing microorganisms, which can act as surface-actives and emulsifiers of hydrocarbon and others water insoluble substances. Most of them are lipopeptides synthetized by Bacillus. This study evaluated the biosurfactant production by strains of Bacillu

8. Cupriavidus necator strains: zinc and cadmium tolerance and bioaccumulation
ABSTRACT: Among soil microorganisms, the genus Cupriavidus has garnered particular scientific, economic and ecological interest because of its ability to fix nitrogen and tolerate high concentrations of metals. The aim of this study was to analyze four strains of Cupriavidus necator for their ability to tolerate and bioaccumulate cadmium and zinc. The tolera

9. Bacterial communities in mining soils and surrounding areas under regeneration process in a former ore mine
Abstract Human activities on the Earth's surface change the landscape of natural ecosystems. Mining practices are one of the most severe human activities, drastically altering the chemical, physical and biological properties of the soil environment. Bacterial communities in soil play an important role in the maintenance of ecological relationships. This work

11. Metal-Resistant Rhizobacteria Change Soluble-Exchangeable Fraction in Multi-Metal-Contaminated Soil Samples
ABSTRACT There is a complex interaction between various components of the soil ecosystem, including microbial biomass and soil chemical contaminants such as heavy metals and radionuclides, which may greatly affect the efficiency of bioremediation techniques. The aim of this study was to investigate microbial capacity to change pH, changes in the metal solubl

12. Tolerance to and Accumulation of Cadmium, Copper, and Zinc by Cupriavidus necator
ABSTRACT Preliminary results of in vitro experiments with multicontaminated soils and solid media indicated that nodulating diazotrophic bacteria of the genus Cupriavidus are promising for the remediation of contaminated environments due to their symbiosis with legumes and metal tolerance. Thus, strains of Cupriavidus spp. (LMG 19424T, UFLA 01-659, UFLA 01-6
