In the science-fiction classic Fantastic Voyage [1], a shrink-ray zaps a submarine and the crew within it, and the resulting microscopic vehicle ventures inside a human body to destroy a blood clot and save a prominent patient's life. While that scen...
In this research, microorganisms in rhizosphere/non-rhizosphere soils of in the Yeyahu Wetland were studied. A sequential extraction procedure was used to analyze the phosphorus (P) forms in the rhizosphere/non-rhizosphere soil with a variety of pla...
The traditional biochemical treatment of printing and dyeing wastewater has limited efficiency. This study investigated whether HO could strengthen the biological ability of the hydrolytic acidification/biological contact oxidation process (A/O), whi...
This Research Communication explores the usefulness of predictive modelling to explain bacterial behaviour during cooling. A simple dynamic lag phase model was developed and validated. The model takes into account the effect of the cooling profile on...
