Isolating and Identifying One Strain with Lead-Tolerant Fungus and Preliminary Study on Its Capability of Biosorption to Pb2+

mycolabadmin

Scientists discovered a fungal strain called Sarocladium that can effectively absorb lead from contaminated soil and water. This strain works best under specific conditions (25°C temperature and neutral pH) and can remove up to 37.75% of lead ions from highly contaminated solutions. The fungus captures lead through various chemical compounds on its cell surface, showing great promise as an inexpensive and environmentally friendly solution for cleaning up lead-polluted environments.

Pharmaceutical Pollution in Aquatic Environments: A Concise Review of Environmental Impacts and Bioremediation Systems

mycolabadmin

Medications we take for health are ending up in our water supplies in significant amounts because standard water treatment plants cannot remove them effectively. These pharmaceutical residues are harming wildlife and aquatic ecosystems, causing problems like population declines in birds, developmental issues in fish, and the spread of antibiotic resistance. Scientists are developing new bioremediation technologies, particularly using fungi and mycoremediation, to better remove these drugs from wastewater before they reach our water bodies.
