In recent years, the role of the gut microbiome in human health and disease has garnered significant attention. Research indicates that gut microbial dysbiosis is closely associated with various chronic diseases, such as obesity, inflammatory bowel disease, cancer, and neurodegenerative disorders. Diet, as a critical factor influencing the gut micr...

Uranium (U) is a radioactive element widely present in the environment, primarily existing in its hexavalent (U(VI)) and tetravalent (U(IV)) oxidation states. Under oxidizing conditions, U(VI) is the dominant stable form, while under reducing conditions, U(VI) can be reduced to U(IV). This reduction process can occur through abiotic pathways (e.g.,...

Selenium (Selenium) is an essential trace element widely found in nature and involved in various biological metabolic processes. However, when selenium concentrations are too high, they can cause severe toxic effects on humans, animals, and the environment. Industrial activities, especially coal combustion in coal-fired power plants, are one of the...

Soil is the product of terrestrial biogeochemical processes and an essential foundation for human survival. Microorganisms endow soil with life properties and drive the biogeochemical cycles within it. Microorganisms play a crucial role in improving soil structure, enhancing fertility, controlling pollution, and responding to global climate change....

Magnetotactic Bacteria (MTB) are a group of microorganisms capable of biomineralizing magnetosomes. Magnetosomes are membrane-bound magnetic nanocrystals primarily composed of magnetite (Fe₃O₄) or greigite (Fe₃S₄). These magnetosomes are arranged in chains or specific orientations within bacterial cells, endowing the bacteria with a magnetic dipole...
