A research team has uncovered significant insights into how crop-specific metabolites influence the spread of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in soil-plant systems.

A research team reveals how iron mineral-Bacillus megaterium (B. megaterium) biofilms function as "biocapacitors," storing solar energy and releasing it in dark environments to degrade harmful contaminants.

A research team has developed a novel approach to studying the dissolution mechanisms of waste glasses, a critical process for predicting the long-term release of contaminants like radionuclides from vitrified waste in geological disposal sites.

A research team reveals that native halophytic plants—species adapted to saline and alkaline environments—can biologically initiate the transformation of toxic bauxite residue (BR), also known as red mud, into early-stage soil.
