Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Biochemistry

His primary areas of study are Biochemistry, Enzyme, Phytoremediation, Trinitrotoluene and Organic chemistry. His Biochemistry study frequently involves adjacent topics like Botany. His research integrates issues of Arabidopsis thaliana, Arabidopsis, Cellulase and Glycoside hydrolase in his study of Botany.

In Enzyme, Neil C. Bruce works on issues like Stereochemistry, which are connected to Oxidoreductase and Stereoisomerism. The Phytoremediation study combines topics in areas such as Genetically modified crops, Biotechnology, Environmental remediation and Nicotiana tabacum. The various areas that he examines in his Trinitrotoluene study include Uridine diphosphate, Reductase and Substrate.

His most cited work include:

  • Lignocellulose degradation mechanisms across the Tree of Life. (234 citations)
  • 'New uses for an Old Enzyme'--the Old Yellow Enzyme family of flavoenzymes. (221 citations)
  • Degradation of hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX) by Stenotrophomonas maltophilia PB1. (210 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Neil C. Bruce mostly deals with Biochemistry, Enzyme, Stereochemistry, Phytoremediation and Botany. His study in Rhodococcus, Escherichia coli, Morphinone reductase, Pseudomonas putida and Arabidopsis falls under the purview of Biochemistry. His research links Pseudomonas with Enzyme.

His work deals with themes such as Strain, Biotransformation and Active site, which intersect with Stereochemistry. Neil C. Bruce has researched Phytoremediation in several fields, including Biotechnology, Pollutant and Environmental remediation. His Botany study deals with Arabidopsis thaliana intersecting with Glutathione.

  • Phytoremediation (12.79%)
  • Biomass (3.65%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary areas of investigation include Biochemistry, Phytoremediation, Biomass, Xylanase and Enzyme. His study in Arabidopsis, Monooxygenase, Nitroreductase, Transformation and Cellulose is done as part of Biochemistry. His Arabidopsis study combines topics in areas such as Trinitrotoluene, Glutathione and Arabidopsis thaliana.

His Phytoremediation research integrates issues from Field trial, Phytotoxicity and Explosive material. His Biomass research includes elements of Biofuel, CAZy, Catalysis and Microbial population biology. His Enzyme study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Extracellular, Proteomics and Microbiology.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • An ancient family of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases with roles in arthropod development and biomass digestion. (100 citations)
  • Genetic modification of western wheatgrass ( Pascopyrum smithii ) for the phytoremediation of RDX and TNT (22 citations)
  • Defining the functional traits that drive bacterial decomposer community productivity (20 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Organic chemistry

Neil C. Bruce mainly focuses on Phytoremediation, Biomass, Biochemistry, Waste management and Contamination. His Phytoremediation study incorporates themes from Pulp and paper industry, Metal and Catalysis. His research in Biomass intersects with topics in Proteobacteria, Microbial biodegradation, CAZy and Bacteroidetes.

Neil C. Bruce has included themes like Dimer and Stereochemistry in his Biochemistry study. He combines subjects such as Palladium, Environmental remediation and Explosive material with his study of Waste management. His Contamination study also includes

  • Agronomy which is related to area like Introduced species,
  • Perennial plant which connect with Phytotoxicity and Plant species.
