Agro-process intensification: soilborne micro-bioreactors with nitrogen fixing bacterium Azospirillum brasilense as self-sustaining biofertiliser source for enhanced nitrogen uptake by plants
A new application of agro-process intensification is described for nitrogen fixation by Azospirillum brasilense supported within the pores of sulphonated-neutralised polyHIPE polymers (PHPs) which are highly hydrophilic, elastic, crosslinked and ionic with nano-structured pore walls. These bioactive...
