Screening fungi for use as biocatalysts in self-healing concrete with protocol simulating concrete environment by Ahsanul Kabir Sumon, Krutika Invally, Lu-Kwang Ju

“…This work addresses the problem of having no existent protocol that closely simulates the harsh concrete environment, namely, high pH (about 13) and temperature (up to above 50 °C during cement hydration), for selecting microorganisms to use in microbe-effected self-healing concrete (MESHC). This problem critically impedes the progress of MESHC development, which has tremendous significance because concrete cracking reduces service life while making new concrete consumes substantial energy and emits a large amount of CO2. …”
