Enhanced desulfurization activity in protoplast transformed Rhodococcus erythropolis (2008)
Journal Article
Etemadifar, Z., Emtiazi, G., & Christofi, N. (2008). Enhanced desulfurization activity in protoplast transformed Rhodococcus erythropolis. American-Eurasian journal of agricultural & environmental sciences, 3, 285-291

Petro-chemically derived fuels may contain a range of organosulfur compounds that produce sulfur dioxide when combusted, culminating in atmospheric and soil pollution. Sulfur constituents include thiophenes, such as Benzothiophene and Dibenzothiaphen... Read More about Enhanced desulfurization activity in protoplast transformed Rhodococcus erythropolis.

UV treatment of microorganisms on artificially-contaminated surfaces using excimer and microwave UV lamps (2008)
Journal Article

Degradation of chlorophenols in aqueous media using UV XeBr excilamp in a flow reactor (2008)
Journal Article
Matafonova, G., Christofi, N., Batoev, V., & Sosnin, E. (2008). Degradation of chlorophenols in aqueous media using UV XeBr excilamp in a flow reactor. Chemosphere, 70, 1124-1127. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chemosphere.2007.08.022

-Chlorophenol (2-CP), 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) and 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) at initial concentrations of 10, 20, 50 and 100 mg l−1 were degraded in aqueous media by direct UV photolysis using dielectric barrier discharge XeBr* excilamp (283 nm) in a...
