Major Overhaul
editI am interested in substantially altering the page for Pyoverdine, but would need someone to help with inserting links, references, and graphics. Can anyone suggest a WikiMentor?Drkirienko (talk) 20:53, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
Much of this editing has now taken place. More thorough citation throughout and greater detail into biosynthesis would be appropriate, as would addition to the section about other uses of pyoverdine. That will come soon, but I've added about 28,000 characters to this page in the past two days.Drkirienko (talk) 03:40, 11 October 2016 (UTC)
References
editMore extensive referencing throughout would be desirable. This is one of the next stages for cleanup.

"The ability of pyoverdines to chelate many metals has
raised interest in the field of geobiology and environment
where the removal of toxic metals from waste material is of
upper importance. Edberg et al. studied the influence of
pyoverdines from P. fluorescens on the removal of metals
from waste material originating from a former unranium
mine [126]. Toxic metals such as Ni and U were complexed
but not in significant amount compared to non toxic metals
such as Fe. Nevertheless, the process should be considered in
cases where the concentrations of toxic metal is high. Under
optimum conditions, it has been shown that pyoverdine from
P. Fluorescens SHA 281 complexed uranium very efficiently
[127]." Taken verbatim from a paper, needs to be edited!
