Distribution and speciation of Sb and toxic metal(loid)s near an antimony refinery and their effects on indigenous microorganisms

Soo-Chan Park et al.

Summary: Although the effects of Sb contamination on surrounding environments and indigenous microorganisms have been studied, the impact of co-contamination of Sb and toxic metal(loid)s remains poorly understood. High Sb levels were found in topsoil samples near the refinery, while high concentrations of As and Pb, along with extremely high Sb contents, were observed in soil samples taken from greater depths near the landfill site. The study also suggested that microbial community compositions were significantly different in samples with high toxic metal(loid)s concentrations, with lower microbial populations, and that Pb may play a major role in controlling microbial community compositions at the site.

Metal and metal(loids) removal efficiency using genetically engineered microbes: Applications and challenges

Pooja Sharma et al.

Summary: Metal and metalloid pollution, caused by anthropogenic activities, directly impacts human and environmental health. Genetically engineered microorganisms (GEMs) are considered to be an environmentally safe and economically feasible strategy for removing metals and metalloids from polluted areas. GEMs have the potential to produce enzymes and metabolites that can tolerate metal stress and detoxify pollutants, aiding in the breakdown of persistent pollutants in the environment.
