Toward Bioremediation of Methylmercury Using Silica Encapsulated Escherichia coli Harboring the mer Operon
Mercury is a highly toxic heavy metal and the ability of the neurotoxin methylmercury to biomagnify in the food chain is a serious concern for both public and environmental health globally. Because thousands of tons of mercury are released into the environment each year, remediation strategies are u...
