Rhodobacter sphaeroides as a model to study the ecotoxicity of 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide

The purple non-sulfur bacterium Rhodobacter sphaeroides was selected as a biological model to investigate its response to the toxicity of 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide ([Cnmim]Br), a type of ionic liquid (IL), with different alkyl chain lengths (n describes the number of carbon atoms in the al...
