Soil pollution and the environmental risks are rising increasing concern. This book introduces the principles and application of bioremediation strategies and toxicity assessment of soil pollutants. This book particularly focuses on heavy metals and persistentorganic pollutants (POPs), such as PAHs and pesticides. These techniques include phytoremediation, pure cultivation, DNA-stable isotope probing (DNA-SIP), Magnetic nanoparticle-Mediated Isolation (MMI) and whole-cell bioreporters. This book can be used asa reference for scientific researchers, managers and post-graduate students in the fields of environment, soil, ecology and biotechnology.
