Use of Algae for Removing Heavy Metal Ions From Wastewater: Progress and Prospects (2005, background): “…metals by microorganisms, including algae, has been known for a few decades, but has received increased attention only in recent years because of its potential for application in environmental protection or recovery of precious or strategic metals (Tsezos, 1985, 1986; Volesky, 1987; Malik, 2004).”
Indigenous microorganisms as potential bioremediators for environments contaminated with heavy metals (2012, neutral): “Exposure can also travel up the food chain, exposing human populations to routine consumption of unknown quantities of pollutants, thereby putting human health at risk as well (Soares et al., 2003; Malik, 2004; Machado et al., 2010).”
Recent Advances in Microbial Metal Bioaccumulation (2013, background): “A generalized overview of such studies encompassing several microbes and metal combinations was presented earlier (Malik, 2004), which largely focused on the merits of exploiting the metabolic potential as well as the fundamental mechanisms involved in metal removal by growing cells.”
Biosorption: current perspectives on concept, definition and application. (2014, background): “Despite the apparent advantages of biosorption, it is ironic that many established and novel biotreatment methods for pollutants rely on living cell systems (Gadd and White, 1993; Malik, 2004).”
Microbes as Potential Tool for Remediation of Heavy Metals: A Review (2016, background): “The same metal ions seem to be sequestered through numerous mechanisms by a diversity of microorganisms [37-39].”
Legume– Rhizobium Symbioses as a Tool for Bioremediation of Heavy Metal Polluted Soils (2011, background): “Other passive resistance mechanisms include metal biosorption to cell surface (Volesky 2007; Malik 2004).”
Toxicity and Bioremediation of Heavy Metals Contaminated Ecosystem from Tannery Wastewater: A Review (2018, background): “HeavyMetals Effects on Microbes Citations Arsenic Deactivation of enzymes [40] Cadmium Denature protein, destroy nucleic acid, hinder cell division and transcription [38] Chromium Growth inhibition, elongation of lag phase, inhibition of oxygen uptake [32] Copper Disrupt cellular function, inhibit e”
Bacterial biosorbents and biosorption. (2008, methodology): “Of the different biological methods, bioaccumulation and biosorption have been demonstrated to possess good potential to replace conventional methods for the removal of dyes/metals (Volesky and Holan, 1995; Malik, 2004).”
The past, present, and future trends of biosorption (2010, background): “For example, extensive comparisons of biosorptive capacities of various types of bacterial biosorbents have been done by Malik [40], Veglio and Beolchini [53], Vijayaraghavan and Yun [2], and Volesky and Holan [43].”
