Systematic Review of Pseudomonas in Heavy-Metal Bioremediation, 2022-2025

A 2026 PRISMA-based review analyzing 41 experimental studies published between 2022 and 2025. The text document, authored by Alessandro De Santis, compares bacterial taxa, detoxification mechanisms, and remediation performance for heavy-metal contamination, focusing on Pseudomonas and Bacillus genera.

Use Cases

• Benchmarking bacterial taxa performance in heavy-metal removal based on reported removal efficiencies.
• Analyzing the relationship between detoxification mechanisms (e.g., efflux, redox, biofilm) and remediation outcomes.
• Identifying research gaps and standardization needs for experimental protocols in bioremediation studies.
• Comparing laboratory-scale versus field-scale remediation efficacy based on the described efficiency ranges.

Strengths

• Follows PRISMA 2020 guidelines for systematic review methodology.
• Analyzes 41 specific experimental studies published between 2022 and 2025.
• Reports concrete performance metrics, such as median removal efficiencies of at least 70% in lab assays and 10-25% in soil.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The 718.5 KB file size indicates a limited scope, likely a single review document.
