Subjects of Research and Applications

Geosciences and environmental resources :
- Mineral alteration, mobility and availability of major mineral elements in metallic traces (heavy metals and radionuclides). Reactivity of bio-organo-minerals and their intervention in alteration kinetics.
- Accessibility, mobility and biodegradability of organo-compounds of natural origin and organic pollutants in the soil and rhizosphere. Implicated mechanisms and organisms (bacteria, fungi), remediation.


Study of soil-plant-microorganism interactions in controlled culture systems (columns, systems with compartments, use of radio-marked elements, ELISA marking).
Study of diversity and microbic activity, in particular of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (PCR-RFLP, analysis of fatty acid profiles).
Study of reactivity to mineral-solution-microorganism interfaces.
Analysis of major elements and trace metals in soils and plants (speciation, selective extractions).
Analysis of organic material and organic pollutants (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the soils): characterization, reactivity, biodegradation.
