Platelet-Derived Products in Veterinary Medicine: A New Trend or an Effective Therapy?

abstract：:Phytoremediation holds promise for in situ treatment of heavy metal contaminated soils. Recently, the benefits of combining siderophore-producing bacteria (SPB) with plants for metal removal from contaminated soils have been demonstrated. Metal-resistant SPB play an important role in the successful survival and growth...
