Uranium adsorption and oil emulsification by extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) of a halophilic unicellular marine cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus BDU130911

Uranium adsorption and oil emulsification by extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) of a halophilic unicellular marine cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus BDU130911

An integrated approach on uranium adsorption and emulsification of oils was evaluated using extracellular polysaccharides (EPS) of a marine unicellular cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus BDU130911. EPS gel of S. elongatus BDU130911 was able to adsorb uranium at the rate of 75% per gram dry weigh...
