Microbiological induced corrosion of AA 6061 nuclear alloy in highly diluted media by Bacillus cereus RE 10

Kinetic optimization of biodegradation and debromination of 2,4,6-tribromophenol using response surface methodology

“…Additionally, the effect of X 2 and X 3 also suggested that the bacterial cell activity was mainly affected by the pH value: lower pH value would result lower cell utilization and the higher one might not benefit for the microorganism growth. And the pH value affecting the activity of the bacterial strain can be also found in a previous report (Forte Giacobone et al, 2011).…”

Microscopic, chemical, and molecular-biological investigation of the decayed medieval stained window glasses of two Catalonian churches

“…Last but not least, our sequence results show high similarities with bacteria already found on deteriorated stone monuments (Jroundi et al., 2010; Ettenauer et al., 2011), building materials (Schäfer et al., 2010), caves (Ikner et al., 2007), and prehistoric paintings (Portillo et al., 2009), and associated with the corrosion of materials (Forte-Giacobone et al., 2011). Many of the related microorganisms were previously isolated from stones and artworks in the Mediterranean area (Portillo et al., 2009; Jroundi et al., 2010; Ettenauer et al., 2011) which supports the idea that medieval stained glass biodeterioration in the Mediterranean area shows patterns comparable to those developed on the stone (Garcia-Valles et al., 2003, 2010).…”

Antibacterial and Corrosion Resistance Properties of Anodized AA6061 Aluminum Alloy

“…Bacteria can attach and agglomerate on the surface to form biofilm causing suitable conditions for corrosion. Inside the biofilm, there are many bacterial colonies that live in, which excrete metabolic waste and change environment underneath the biofilm [8]. Hence, the prevention of bacterial attachment on the surface can reduce biocorrosion attack.…”
