Biosafety and the Environmental Uses of Micro-Organisms
Conference Proceedings
Micro-organisms play a fundamental role in the environment. Yet their role is the
result of complex biogeochemical processes by consortia of micro-organisms and the
function of individual species is not clear in many cases.
This publication provides an overview of the current situation and relevant developments
in environmental microbiology, as well as its potential application, which covers:
use of micro-organisms for agriculture, production purposes, bioremediation, and cleaning
purpose; environmental applications of microbial symbionts of insects; and environmental
risk/safety assessment of the deliberate release of engineered micro-organisms.
