TL;DR: An alternative toxicity classification system that was easier to apply and substantially more cost effective than any of the earlier methods was developed and applied in the framework of a cooperation agreement between the Flemish community in Belgium and central and eastern Europe.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of plant extract on the degradation of nitroaromatic compounds by soil microorganisms.
TL;DR: Cultivation of the A43 in liquid medium of the same content showed that addition of cabbage leaf extract alone to medium is much more efficient for TNT degradation by growing biomass as compared to addition of carbohydrate alone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biodegradation of ammonia by two stage biofiltration system
TL;DR: The biofiltration technique for the purification of polluted air from volatile compounds was studied and the total removal efficiency as well as the biodegradation efficiency as the result of the denitrification process was increased.

Laila Dubova,Olga Muter,Alina Mihailova,Ina Alsina,Vilhelmine Steinberga,Baiba Limane,Dzidra Zarina +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the results of the greenhouse experiments with soils artificially contaminated by diesel are presented, where seeds of peas were sown into peat and sandy soil mended with 1% and 3% of diesel, as well as inoculum of bacteria consortia, which was previously isolated from oil-contaminated sites.
Comparison of various amendments on the growth of the targeted bacteria association and ammonia biodegradation
Alina Mihailova,Olga Muter,Silvija Strikauska,Baiba Limane,Andrejs Berzins,U. Viesturs,Dzidra Zarina,Riga Lv +7 more
TL;DR: The use of the whole association was shown more effective in terms of its application for ammonia biodegradation, as compared to single bacteria species of this association.
