Iron, cobalt and gadolinium transport in methanogenic granules measured by 3D magnetic resonance imaging

Iron, cobalt and gadolinium transport in methanogenic granules measured by 3D magnetic resonance imaging

Description of processes such as bioaccumulation, bioavailability and biosorption of heavy metals in biofilm matrixes requires the quantification of their transport. This study shows 3D MRI measurements of the penetration of free (Fe2+, Co2+ and Gd3+) and complexed ([FeEDTA]2- and [GdDTPA]2-) metal...
