Microbial interaction with and tolerance of radionuclides: underlying mechanisms and biotechnological applications

Radionuclide polluted environments harbor microbial species highly tolerant to these elements through mechanisms like biosorption, biotransformation, biomineralization and intracellular accumulation. The microbial‐ radionuclide interaction processes have a great potential for biotechnological applic...
