Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Bacteria
  • Gene

His scientific interests lie mostly in Laccase, Chromatography, Nonylphenol, Biodegradation and Biotechnology. His work on Glutaraldehyde is typically connected to Bisphenol A and ABTS as part of general Chromatography study, connecting several disciplines of science. His Biodegradation research includes elements of Bioremediation, Peroxidase, Manganese peroxidase, Lignin and Pulp and paper industry.

Versatile peroxidase is closely connected to Remazol Brilliant Blue R in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Lignin. His Biotechnology research incorporates elements of Functional genes, Waste treatment, Sustainability and Insect cell culture. Spiros N. Agathos works mostly in the field of Pollutant, limiting it down to topics relating to Aquifer and, in certain cases, Environmental engineering, as a part of the same area of interest.

His most cited work include:

  • White-rot fungi and their enzymes for the treatment of industrial dye effluents. (883 citations)
  • Emerging pollutants in the environment: present and future challenges in biomonitoring, ecological risks and bioremediation (458 citations)
  • Is bioaugmentation a feasible strategy for pollutant removal and site remediation (445 citations)

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

Waste management, Biochemistry, Biotechnology, Biodegradation and Environmental chemistry are his primary areas of study. His Waste management research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Anaerobic exercise and Environmental engineering. His Biochemistry research incorporates themes from Cell culture and Chinese hamster ovary cell.

His research on Biotechnology often connects related areas such as Biochemical engineering. Biodegradation is closely attributed to Bioremediation in his work. The concepts of his Bioremediation study are interwoven with issues in Pollutant and Metagenomics.
