A number of ecological, economic and medical problems arise as a result of damage to building materials by various groups of microorganisms (microbiologically influenced corrosion), as well as due to the treatment of these materials with toxic chemical biocides/inhibitors. Artificial addition of “green” biocides/inhibitors (in particular, of secondary metabolites of Читати далі

Microorganisms cause microbiologically influenced corrosion, for the prevention of which bactericide inhibitors are used. The aim of the work was to study in vitro the sensitivity of SRB Desulfovibrio oryzae NUChC SRB1 to different concentrations of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and evaluate the indicators of the microbial corrosion of steel induced Читати далі

Bacillus licheniformis IMV B-8008 isolated from the Black Sea bottom sediments was shown to synthesize protease which demonstrated high elastase activity starting from the third day of cultivation. It has been shown that growing temperature and aeration significantly affected the studied enzyme's activity. The purified enzyme preparation has a pH-optimum Читати далі

Military activities affect soil conditions through contamination with metal-containing debris, such asprojectile and rocket fragments, as well as bullet remnants, leading to the release of heavy metals and subsequent environmental contamination. The goal of our study was to examine the concentration of heavy metals in areas affected by shelling and Читати далі

The use of fungicides to limit the development of soybean mycoses in modern agrocenoses is a common measure. At the same time, the use of symbiotic and phosphate-mobilizing bacteria increases the productivity and quality of the crop. The combination of biological agents and fungicides can have different effects and requires Читати далі

Silver and gold nanoparticles (NPs) have gained considerable attention in recent years due to their wide-ranging applications in medicine, agriculture, industry, and other fields where they may interact with the environment. Green synthesis of NPs supports sustainability by reducing chemical waste and energy use while improving their biocompatibility through plant Читати далі

Abstract Calcium phosphates modified with trace elements (sodium, magnesium) and borate-anions as well as composites based on them with different amount of ZrO 2 (5, 10 or 25wt%) were synthesized from aqueous solution with further heating to 600 °C. The amounts of borate-anions and sodium cations in the initial solutions Читати далі

In this review, I describe recent findings on the molecular architecture and genomic characterization of giant viruses that infect microbial eukaryotes (protists) across diverse ecosystems and ecological niches. Giant viruses are distinguished by their large and complex genomes, which encode a wide range of functions, including protein translation, carbohydrate and Читати далі
