<br/><br/> "Microbial biotechnology: Role in Ecological sustainability and Research explains the role of microbial biotechnology in achieving environmental sustainability. After a general introduction to microbial technology, it focuses on the removal of environmental pollutants including antibiotics, sustainable agriculture using microbial biocontrol agents and bio-fertilizers, microbial reduction of greenhouse gases, and other applications in research and technology. Microbial biotechnology: Role in Ecological Sustainability and Research provides valuable insight for a broad audience of postgraduates & research scholars, scientists and professionals engaged in microbiology, biotechnology, environmental sciences, earth sciences, and microbial ecology"--
