Aerobic and anaerobic biosynthesis of nano-selenium for remediation of mercury contaminated soil

Verified

Xiaonan Wang, Daoyong Zhang, Xiangliang Pan, Duu‐Jong Lee et al.

Journal: ChemosphereYear: 2016Citations: 135

Selenium (Se) nanoparticles are often synthesized by anaerobes. However, anaerobic bacteria cannot be directly applied for bioremediation of contaminated top soil which is generally aerobic. In this study, a selenite-reducing bacterium, Citrobacter freundii Y9, demonstrated high selenite reducing po...
