Representing the latest knowledge of the ecology and the physiology of cold-adapted microorganisms, plants and animals, this book explains the mechanisms of cold-adaptation on the enzymatic and molecular level, including results from the first crystal structures of enzymes of cold-adapted organisms.

How can industry profit from the biochemical tricks of cold-adapted organisms? This book covers a range of aspects in this fascinating field, from genetic tools to environmental biotechnology.

In terrestrial ecosystems, soil microorganisms and soil animals are essential for litter degradation, soil formation and the availability of nutrients and trace elements. The measurement of biological soil parameters allows a rapid evaluation of the effects of chemical and physical influences due to pollutants or soil management. This book introduces a number of well proved methods for the analysis of carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus and sulfur cy...

Die Messung biologischer Parameter von Böden erlaubt eine rasche Beurteilung der Auswirkung chemischer und physikalischer Einflüsse auf den Boden. Dieses Buch stellt eine Vielzahl von enzymatischen Methoden vor, die zur Erfassung von Aktivitäten aus dem Kohlenstoff-, Stickstoff-, Phosphor- und Schwefelkreislauf geeignet sind. Ebenso wird die Bestimmung der Biomasse von Mikroorganismen, Algen und Tieren des Bodens beschrieben. Das Methodenspekt...

This volume presents detailed descriptions of methods for evaluating, monitoring and assessing bioremediation of soil contaminated with organic pollutants or heavy metals. Traditional soil investigation techniques, including chemical, physical and microbiological methods, are complemented by the most suitable modern methods, including bioreporter technology, immunological, ecotoxicological and molecular assays. Step-by-step procedures, lists o...
