What is Bacterial Biosilicification Insights about?
This review discusses bacterial biosilicification, the process by which bacteria incorporate silicic acid into silica, and its implications for the global silicon cycle. It highlights recent findings on both extracellular and intracellular biosilicification in bacteria, particularly in geothermal environments and within Bacillus spores. The review emphasizes the potential advantages of biosilicification for microorganisms, including protection against UV radiation and environmental stresses.
