Improvement of Brassica napus growth under cadmium stress by cadmium-resistant rhizobacteria (2008, methodology): “We determined only the dry weight as a growth parameter since according to Bashan and de-Bashan (2005) this parameter does not seem to be affected by the laboratory environment.”
Alginate from the macroalgae Sargassum sinicola as a novel source for microbial immobilization material in wastewater treatment and plant growth promotion (2007, methodology): “Some formulations that use alginate were proposed ( Bashan, 1998; Bashan et al., 2002; Fages, 1990, 1992).”
