Application

Application	Comment	Organism
environmental protection	biodegradation by cells encapsulated in silica gel is an economical and environmentally friendly method for the removal of toxic chemicals from the environment. Recombinant Escherichia coli expressing atrazine chlorohydrolase are encapsulated in organically modified silica gels composed of TEOS, silica nanoparticles, and either phenyltriethoxysilane or methyltriethoxysilane. The optimized PTES and MTES gels have atrazine biodegradation rates of 0.041 and 0.047 mol/ml gel, respectively. The rates are approximately 80% higher than that measured in the TEOS gel. Optimized hydrophobic gel material design can be used to enhance both removal and biodegradation of hydrophobic chemicals like atrazine	Pseudomonas sp. ADP
