All kinds of microbes including prokaryotes and eukaryotes and their symbiotic associations with each other and higher organisms can contribute actively to geological phenomena and central to many such geomicrobial processes are transformations of metals. Bioremediation is the application of biological systems to the clean-up of organic and inorganic pollution with bacteria and fungi being the most important organisms for reclamation immobilization or detoxification of metallic and radionuclide pollutants.
Some biominerals or metallic elements deposited by microbes have catalytic and other properties in nanoparticle crystalline or colloidal forms and these are relevant to the development of novel biomaterials. Metals minerals and microbes. Contribution to journal Article peer-review.

Apart from being important in natural biosphere processes metal and mineral transformations can have beneficial or detrimental consequences in a human context. Bioremediation is the application of biological systems to the clean-up of organic and inorganic pollution with bacteria and fungi being the most important organisms for reclamation immobilization or detoxification of metallic and radionuclide pollutants.

Bioremediation by biosorption. Microbes are helpful in binding with metals from aqueous solution known as biosorbent under the process of biosorption and it becomes mandatory that the physical nature of biosorbent kinetics of sorption regeneration maximum sorption capacity and recovery of bound metals should be analyzed to detect the.
Metals minerals and microbes. Geomicrobiology and bioremediation Geoffrey Michael Gadd Division of Molecular Microbiology College of Life Sciences. Geomicrobiology is the scientific field at the intersection of geology and microbiology.
It concerns the role of microbes on geological and geochemical processes and effects of minerals and metals to microbial growth activity and survival. Such interactions occur in the geosphere the atmosphere and the hydrosphere. Geomicrobiology studies microorganisms that are driving the Earths biogeochemical.
