Globally, the soil is the largest active terrestrial carbon pool in the biosphere, composed of organic and inorganic carbon. The role of plants in carbon sequestration has been widely studied, but knowledge concerning the potential of soil microorganisms for carbon sequestration remains poor. This article reviews the composition of the carbon-fixing microbes community in the soil, the process of soil microbes carbon fixation, and the factors affecting the rate of carbon fixation. The key scientific problems to be solved urgently are also proposed. It hopes to provide new ideas and methods for comprehensively understanding the carbon sequestration process and mechanism of soil microorganisms, improving the efficiency of soil carbon sequestration, and solving environmental problems caused by climate change and human activities.

Contribution of surface functional groups and detailed interface interaction for biosorption of strontium ions by Saccharomyces cerevisiae under culture conditions was investigated through chemical modification, in addition to spectroscopic and mesoscopic methods. The results showed that the biosorption ratio decreased approximately 10%, 60%, and 70% for ester group, carboxyl group, and amino group modified yeast cells, respectively. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and surface functional group potentiometric titration results revealed that –NH2, –COOH, and –OH were the major binding groups. The amino group displayed the greatest contribution to biosorption of strontium ions, followed by the carboxyl group and, finally, the ester group. Electrostatic interaction was the initial role and establishment of a coordination complex was the most common mechanism of interface interaction between strontium ions and the yeast cell surface. Mesoscopic analysis suggested that strontium ions may be first adsorbed on the cell surface and then transported into the cytoplasm. Transmembrane transport and the bioaccumulation model revealed that yeast cells may regulate the distribution of strontium ions through a transportation mechanism. A detailed interface interaction was discussed for S. cerevisiae biosorption of low concentration strontium ions under culture conditions. The results suggested that optimal biosorption for a microorganism relies upon enrichment of proteins and polysaccharides on the cell surface.

Understanding the mechanisms for electron shuttles (ESs) in microbial extracellular electron transfer (EET) is important in biogeochemical cycles, bioremediation applications, as well as bioenergy strategies. In this work, we adapted electrochemical techniques to probe electrochemically active and redox-active Shewanella putrefaciens. This approach detected flavins and humic-like substances of Shewanella putrefaciens, which were involved in electron transfer to the electrode. A combination of three-dimensional excitation-emission (EEM) florescence spectroscopy methods identified a mixture of riboflavin and humic-like substances in supernatants during sustained incubations. The reductive behaviour of U(VI) by Shewanella putrefaciens in the presence of riboflavin (RF) and anthraquinone-2-sulfonate (AQS) was also investigated in this study. The results indicated that RF and AQS significantly accelerated electron transfer from cells to U(VI), thus enhancing reductive U(VI). The precipitate was further evidenced by SEM, FTIR, XPS and XRD, which demonstrated that chernikovite [H2(UO2)2(PO4)2·8H2O] became the main product on the cell surface of S. putrefaciens. In a contrast, U(IV) mainly existed amorphously on the cell surface of S. putrefaciens with added RF and AQS. This work has significant implications in elucidating RF and AQS as electron shuttles that are efficient in reduction of uranium in geological environments.
