Biomineralization of Sr by the Cyanobacterium Pseudanabaena catenata Under Alkaline Conditions Open
A non-axenic culture of Pseudanabaena catenata, a close relative of the bloom-forming cyanobacterium found in the high pH First Generation Magnox Storage Pond at the Sellafield Nuclear Facility, was supplemented with 1 mM of SrCl2, to dete…

Bioremediation of strontium and technetium contaminated groundwater using glycerol phosphate Open
Groundwater at legacy nuclear facilities around the world is contaminated with radionuclides including strontium-90 and technetium-99, which are often present as co-contaminants. Here we investigated whether biostimulation of indigenous mi…

The impact of iron nanoparticles on technetium-contaminated groundwater and sediment microbial communities Open
Iron nanoparticles are a promising new technology to treat contaminated groundwater, particularly as they can be engineered to optimise their transport properties. Technetium is a common contaminant at nuclear sites and can be reductively …

Long-Term Immobilization of Technetium via Bioremediation with Slow-Release Substrates Open
Radionuclides are present in groundwater at contaminated nuclear facilities with technetium-99, one of the most mobile radionuclides encountered. In situ bioremediation via the generation of microbially reducing conditions has the potentia…

Social space and the city Open
As Tony Judt has observed, we are unwittingly veering towards a society of “gated individuals who do not know how to share public space to common advantage”1. With a rising tendency towards the privatisation of space and social life in the…
