    • Biosorption of metal ions by Azotobacter vinelandii 
      Cotoras,; Millar,; Viedma,; Pimentel,; Mestre, (Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1992)
      Azotobacter vinelandii was better than either Derxia gummosa or Rhizobium trifolii for sorption of UO2 2+. Its maximum binding capacity was 0.25 mmol UO2 2+/g dry biomass with an affinity constant of 333 l/mmol at pH 4.1 ...
    • Sorption of metal ions by whole cells of bacillus and micrococcus 
      Cotoras,; Vledma,; Clfuentes,; Mestre, (1992)
      Metal removal by seven strains of Bacillus and Micrococcus was investigated. The culture age of the cells had little or no effect on their sorption capacity. Using the Langmuir isotherm, it was possible to determine that ...
