Scarascia G, Fortunato L, Myshkevych Y, Cheng H, Leiknes T, Hong P
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2021 Sep; 118(37). PMID: 34493685
Anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) for wastewater treatment has attracted much interest due to its efficacy in providing high-quality effluent with minimal energy costs. However, membrane biofouling represents the main bottleneck...

Scarascia G, Lehmann R, Machuca L, Morris C, Cheng K, Kaksonen A, et al.
Appl Environ Microbiol . 2019 Oct; 86(1). PMID: 31628147
Sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) are key contributors to microbe-induced corrosion (MIC), which can lead to serious economic and environmental impact. The presence of a biofilm significantly increases the MIC rate. Inhibition...

Sivakumar K, Scarascia G, Zaouri N, Wang T, Kaksonen A, Hong P
Front Microbiol . 2019 Feb; 10:188. PMID: 30787924
Biocorrosion in marine environment is often associated with biofilms of sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB). However, not much information is available on the mechanism underlying exacerbated rates of SRB-mediated biocorrosion under...

Al-Jassim N, Mantilla-Calderon D, Scarascia G, Hong P
Environ Sci Technol . 2018 Nov; 52(24):14331-14341. PMID: 30457853
Bacteriophages active against a New Delhi metallo beta lactamase (NDM)-positive E. coli PI-7 were isolated from municipal wastewater and tested for their lytic effect against the bacterial host. Bacteriophages were...

Scarascia G, Yap S, Kaksonen A, Hong P
Front Microbiol . 2018 May; 9:875. PMID: 29770130
is a ubiquitous member of marine biofilm, and reduces thiosulfate to produce toxic hydrogen sulfide gas. In this study, lytic bacteriophages were isolated and applied to inhibit the growth of...

Scarascia G, Cheng H, Harb M, Hong P
BMC Microbiol . 2017 Apr; 17(1):85. PMID: 28376730
Background: Establishing an optimal proportion of nitrifying microbial populations, including ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB), nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB), complete nitrite oxidizers (comammox) and ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA), is important for ensuring the efficiency...

Scarascia G, Wang T, Hong P
Antibiotics (Basel) . 2016 Dec; 5(4). PMID: 27983678
Sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) are one of the main protagonist groups of biocorrosion in the seawater environment. Given their principal role in biocorrosion, it remains a crucial task to develop strategies...
