Exploring fungal potential for microbial-induced calcite precipitation (MICP) in bio-cement production

IntroductionMicrobial-induced calcite precipitation (MICP) involves various microorganisms, such as bacteria, fungi, and algae. This study focuses on producing bio-cement using fungal species and selecting potential candidates isolated from alkaline soil of different regions of Punjab, namely, Majha...
