Characterization of a Novel CaCO<sub>3</sub>-Forming Alkali-Tolerant <i>Rhodococcus erythreus</i> S26 as a Filling Agent for Repairing Concrete Cracks

Characterization of a Novel CaCO<sub>3</sub>-Forming Alkali-Tolerant <i>Rhodococcus erythreus</i> S26 as a Filling Agent for Repairing Concrete Cracks

Biomineralization, a well-known natural phenomenon associated with various microbial species, is being studied to protect and strengthen building materials such as concrete. We characterized <i>Rhodococcus erythreus</i> S26, a novel urease-producing bacterium exhibiting CaCO<sub>3&...
