Description

Wanna Li and co-authors isolate a fungus that soaks up lead in a 2024 study. Lead taints soil and water in many spots, and microbes that trap the metal could help clean such sites. The team pulled a strain from lead laden soil and bred it for stronger tolerance.

Gene tests named the strain as Sarocladium Pb-9. It grew best over four days at mild heat and neutral balance, and it adsorbed lead well even at high doses in lab broth. Under lead stress its spores wrinkled, while scans showed metal held in its threads and signs of new ester and sugar output. The strain looks fit for cleanup trials.
