The biodegradation of the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon phenantherene by the rhizobacterial strain Ensifer meliloti P221, isolated from the root zone of plant grown in PAH-contaminated soil was studied. Bacterial growth and phenanthrene degradation under the influence of root-exuded organic acids
There are plenty of evidences to show that combining of chemotherapy and immunotherapy should be a very potent anti-cancer therapeutic method. In this research, we evaluated the anti-tumor activity of doxorubicin prodrug combined with erythrocyte membrane-enveloped polymer nano-vaccine against tumor
A series of N-substituted isoindolinones have been successfully synthesized through the reductive C-N coupling and intramolecular amidation of 2-carboxybenzaldehyde and amines. This one-pot synthesis gives excellent yields using ultrathin Pt nanowires as catalysts under 1 bar of hydrogen. These unsupported

The direct interactions of bacterial membranes and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) strongly influence the biological processes, such as metabolic activity and uptake of substrates due to changes in membrane lipids. However, the elucidation of adaptation mechanisms as well as membrane

The findings from a biodegradability study of fluoranthene using two pure bacterial strains, Pasteurella sp. IFA (B-2) and Mycobacterium sp. PYR-1 (AM) are reported. Of total fluoranthene, 24% (B-2) and 46% (AM) was biodegraded in an aqueous medium during 14
