Biomineralization of a calcifying ureolytic bacterium Microbacterium sp. GM-1

Biomineralization of a calcifying ureolytic bacterium Microbacterium sp. GM-1

Background: Biomineralization is a significant process performed by living organisms in which minerals are produced through the hardening of biological tissues. Herein, we focus on calcium carbonate precipitation, as part of biomineralization, to be used in applications for environmental protection,...
