Abstract
Europium, as an easy-to-study analog of the trivalent actinides, is of particular importance for studying the behavior of lanthanides and actinides in the environment. Since different soil organisms can influence the migration behavior of these elements, a detailed knowledge of these interaction mechanisms is important. The aim of this study was to investigate the interaction of mycelia of selected wood-inhabiting (S. commune, P. ostreatus, L. tigrinus) and soil-inhabiting fungi (L. naucinus) with Eu(III). In addition to determining the Eu(III) complexes in the sorption solution, the formed Eu(III) fungal species were characterized using scanning transmission electron microscopy coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, chemical microscopy in combination with the time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy. Our data show that S. commune exhibited significantly higher Eu(III) binding capacity in comparison to the other fungi. Depending on fungal strain, the metal was immobilized on the cell surface, in the cell membranes, and within the membranes of various organelles, or in the cytoplasm in some cases. During the bioassociation process two different Eu(III) fungal species were formed in all investigated fungal strain. The phosphate groups of organic ligands were identified as being important functional groups to bind Eu(III) and thus immobilize the metal in the fungal matrix. The information obtained contributes to a better understanding of the role of fungi in migration, removal or retention mechanisms of rare earth elements and trivalent actinides in the environment.

Abstract
Fungal biomass proves to be highly efficient for the treatment of wastewater as well as recovery of metal ions from wastewater. Present investigation was aimed to evaluate the efficiency of indigenous fungal isolates for the sequestration of Zn(II) ions aqueous solution. Among twenty five fungal isolates, Aspergillus oryzae SV/09 (AO SV/09), Aspergillus flavus NA9 (AF NA9) and Paecilomyces formosus DTO 63f4 (PF DTO-63f4) were identified by gene sequencing of ITS regions of the ribosomal DNA (rDNA). The AO SV/09, AF NA9 and PF DTO-63f4 showed promising efficiency for the biosorption of Zn(II) ions. Zn(II) ions adsorption was endothermic in nature and data fitted will to the Freundlich isotherm with correlation coefficients values of 0.99, 0.98 and 0.99 for AO SV/09, AF NA9 and PF DTO-63f4, respectively. Pseudo-second order kinetic model explained well the Zn(II) adsorption kinetic of Zn(II) ions onto biosorbents. The adsorbed Zn(II) ions were desorbed using HCl and 85.5, 75.3, 73.7 (%) Zn(II) ions were recovered from AO SV/09, AF NA9 and PF DTO-63f4 sorbents, respectively. The fungal biosorbents were successfully recycled up to five cycles. Based on sorption, recovery and regeneration, the application of fungal bio-sorbents for the sequestration and recovery of Zn(II) ions is suggested from wastewater and could possibly be extended for the recovery of other heavy metal ions from wastewater.

Abstract
The ability of microbial cells to sequester solutes selectively from aquatic solutions, via nonmetabolically mediated pathways, has been termed biosorption. The mechanism of biosorption has been shown not to be simple and often specific to the biomass-solute pair. The understanding of the mechanism at play, in each biosorption system, is a prerequisite for the understanding of the stoichiometry, the equilibrium, the kinetics, the selectivity, and the engineering process application potential. Biosorption has been studied mostly for inorganic ionic solutes, but there is also reported work on the biosorption of organic molecules. Reference is also made to the biosorption engineering application issues.
